[Hiring] Paralegal / Law Student — Legal Research @Xperteez Technology

Role Description

Paralegal / Law Student — Legal Research

Contract position, Remote — open to paralegals with U.S. legal experience.

Your tasks include:

• Apply your cite-checking and legal research expertise to a short, high-intensity project.
• Apply Bluebook rules and verify citations with precision across a range of source types.
• Conduct legal research and confirm that sources support the propositions cited.
• Work through research and citation tasks under defined guidelines, applying them consistently.
• Explain your reasoning — why a citation is wrong, not just that it is.
• Flag ambiguous cases to project coordinators instead of resolving them silently.
• Deliver assigned work on schedule and at the required quality level.

Qualifications

• Paralegal certification (NALA, NFPA, or NALS), a certificate from an ABA-approved program, or current enrollment in law school.
• 3–5 years of hands-on paralegal experience is preferred, though we’re open on either side if your citation work is current.
• Current, active cite-checking and legal research practice — this is more important to us than total years.
• Strong working knowledge of The Bluebook: pincites, short forms, signals, and parentheticals.
• Law review or law journal experience is a strong plus.
• Graduates of highly ranked law schools or paralegal programs are especially encouraged to apply.
• Available to work over the next two weeks, starting within 24–48 hours of onboarding.
