An AI legal assistant
A small legal team spends most of its week on documents rather than law: drafting from templates, reading incoming contracts against standard terms, chasing signatures, keeping matter files straight. This job does that, and says plainly that it is not a lawyer.
Concretely
- Drafts standard contracts and letters from your own templates.
- Prepares a first-pass review of incoming contracts against your standard terms.
- Tracks contract dates, renewals and deadlines.
- Sends documents for signature and chases the ones still outstanding.
- Keeps matter and client files organized, and prepares intake summaries.
It is an assistant, not a lawyer, and it says so
That sentence is in the job description rather than in a disclaimer at the bottom of a page, and it changes what the job does. It does not give legal advice. It never sends a document to the other side without a person approving it. Anything unusual in a contract goes to the lawyer or the owner with the clause quoted, rather than being summarized away.
First-pass review is a comparison, not an opinion
Reading an incoming contract against your standard terms is mechanical work: here is where it differs from what you normally accept, here is the clause, here is your usual position. That is genuinely useful and it is not advice. What the difference means for your risk is the lawyer’s call, and the quoted clause is what lets them make it in two minutes rather than twenty.
The renewal nobody diarized
Contracts have dates, and those dates usually live with whoever negotiated the deal. Auto-renewals pass unnoticed, notice periods expire, and the discovery happens when leaving becomes expensive. Tracking dates centrally is dull and it is the most reliable money this job saves.
Signature chasing
A document waiting for a countersignature is a deal that has not closed and a matter that cannot progress, and chasing it is nobody’s favorite task. Sending for signature and following up until it lands is a small mechanical loop that reliably takes days off a process when somebody actually runs it.
