ABOUT LAWHIVE

Lawhive is a global, AI-native law firm. Operating in the US and UK, we’ve built our own agentic operating system for legal services.

We partner with leading Main Street law firms to give lawyers and back-office teams the AI platform, marketing, and operational support to grow faster than they could alone. Our specialized AI agent for legal work, Lawrence, works alongside lawyers, putting human legal judgment right where it belongs: at the center of every matter.

We're backed by a $60M Series B at a $685M valuation, from investors including Google Ventures, TQ Ventures, Mitch Rales, Balderton Capital and Premier League footballers Harry Maguire and Reece James. In the last few years we've hit milestone after milestone, raising over $110M in funding. Today, we're on track to exceed $100 million in annual revenue, and we have offices in London, New York, Austin, and Phoenix.

So if you want your work to have real, tangible impact as we redefine an entire industry, Lawhive is where you can make it happen.

The Role

This is a unique role. As Law Librarian at Lawhive, you will be the research and knowledge backbone of our US legal practice, blending traditional law librarianship with training and evaluating our AI agent, Lawrence.

You will conduct deep legal research, check statutes and case law, build and maintain our library of precedents and templates, and manage the taxonomy, databases and knowledge-sharing that our attorneys rely on every day. Alongside this, you will help ensure and enhance the quality of Lawrence, our AI-powered legal platform, by reviewing AI-generated legal content and checking that its citations, statutes and references are accurate and up to date.

Key Responsibilities

- Conduct in-depth legal research, statutory checks and case law analysis to support our attorneys across practice areas

- Structure and maintain our internal document archive, including precedents, templates and practice guides

- Build and manage our legal taxonomy so knowledge is easy to find and consistently organised

- Manage access to legal research databases (e.g. Westlaw, Lexis, Bloomberg Law) and support attorneys in using them effectively

- Share knowledge across the group’s firms through research memos, current-awareness updates and training

- Review legal content, drafts and responses produced by our AI agent, Lawrence, for accuracy and legitimacy

- Fact-check legal citations, statutes and references generated by the platform, flagging errors and outdated authority

- Partner with our AI, Product and Engineering teams to feed back on quality issues and help improve how Lawrence handles legal research

What You’ll Bring

- An MLIS/MLS or equivalent qualification; a JD is a bonus

- Experience as a law librarian, legal research analyst or similar role in a law firm, law school, court or legal publisher

- Expert command of US legal research methods and tools

- A proven interest in AI and how it can be used to improve the legal system; hands-on experience with legal AI tools is a bonus

- Experience organising legal knowledge (precedent banks, taxonomies, intranets or knowledge management systems)

- Meticulous attention to detail and a high standard for accuracy

- Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to articulate complex concepts clearly and effectively

- Highly motivated, proactive, and able to thrive in a fast-paced environment

- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to prioritise competing research requests

- Previous experience in a start-up or scale-up environment considered a bonus

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
