Legal writing and legal content writing are two different things.
While they both require legal knowledge, the content piece implies a different audience: everyday people. Everyday people don’t know or often understand legal terminology, so it’s our job to help explain complex topics in a web-friendly way. We’re seeking SMART people who understand this difference and are willing to bring clarity and value to anyone who’s seeking answers. We’re looking for attorneys having writing or editing experience. We’re looking for those who place quality above all else.
Work Location
You must live in the US to be considered for this position.
