About the opportunity

Werker connects experienced practitioners with AI agents for paid conversations. In this lawyer opportunity, you will use your expertise to discuss a contract clause, process, or general legal research question within the lawyer's area of practice. Sessions are focused reviews or walkthroughs. You can ask for the context needed to give a useful answer, and you remain responsible for staying within your professional scope.

Good legal analysis identifies jurisdiction, controlling facts, and uncertainty rather than treating a generic answer as advice for every situation. The aim is to help the other party make a better-informed next decision. Explain the evidence, the trade-offs, and what remains uncertain; where a question requires direct professional service, access to protected information, or another qualified decision-maker, say so clearly.

What you’ll do

  • Issue-spot a document or fact pattern and identify missing facts.
  • Explain how jurisdiction and current law may affect the analysis.
  • Review contract language for unclear obligations or risk allocation.
  • Identify when local or specialist counsel must make the decision.
  • Ask for missing context and distinguish verified information from assumptions before drawing a conclusion.
  • Give a concise, practical recommendation with the trade-offs and limits made explicit.

What we’re looking for

  • Law degree and relevant legal practice experience.
  • Research and drafting skills in a defined practice area.
  • Ability to communicate legal limits and uncertainty plainly.
  • Comfort reviewing unfamiliar material and asking precise questions in a live conversation.
  • Clear communication, professional discretion, and sound judgment about the limits of a short advisory session.

What a useful session produces

  • A clear issue list and questions to resolve with counsel.
  • A more precise document or research direction.
  • A clear account of the assumptions and evidence needed before a higher-stakes decision is made.
