faq

Real questions, short answers

What do lawyers do in AI training?

Day to day, they write realistic legal questions, answer them the way a practising lawyer would and score AI responses on accuracy, reasoning and citations. Some projects stick to one area, such as contracts, tax or litigation.

How much do legal AI jobs pay?

Across the 87 live jobs on this page that list pay, most pay $63–270/hr, and the median is $115/hr. Mercor's October 2026 listings put legal expert roles at $100–150 an hour, for candidates with a JD, LLB or LLM plus a current licence to practise.

Do I need to be admitted to the bar?

Expect lawyer roles to ask for a law degree and an active licence. Paralegal and legal research positions may not, so read each listing closely.

Can I do this alongside a law firm job?

Plenty of lawyers do, since the hours flex. Before signing a contract, check your firm's outside-work and confidentiality policies.
