Legal Associate — Content & Drafting
Founding Team · Full-time · Noida
We're an early-stage ed-tech startup building India's first dedicated platform for law-career aspirants — starting with AIBE, CLAT, CIVIL SERVICES, NEET, Judiciary / Civil Judge exams (PCS-J), APO, and many more. One platform, multiple career journey: from law school entrance to a permanent seat on the bench. Our tech platform is built, our product is live, and we're now scaling the depth and breadth of our legal content. This isn't a regular content-writing role. It's for a lawyer who wants two things at once: a serious, intellectually rich career in legal education content, and continued exposure to real legal drafting work. We offer both — deliberately.
What you'll do
- The Role
- You'll wear two hats:
- Hat 1: Legal Content (~70% of your time)
- You'll create and vet exam-prep content across our verticals — judiciary, CLAT, AIBE, and other legal exams as the company expands. This means writing study notes, building MCQ banks, drafting model answers for mains, recording explainer scripts, and updating material when laws or syllabi change. You'll be the person who ensures every legal claim on our platform is accurate, well-cited, and student-friendly. You should have exposure to international exams too like SQE and MBE.
- Hat 2: Legal Drafting (~30% of your time)
- You'll also get hands-on with real legal drafting work that comes through the firm — petitions, replies, opinions, contracts, depending on what's on the docket. This isn't filler work or shadow work; it's the practice experience that pure ed-tech content roles can't offer and that you'd otherwise spend years chasing at a junior law firm.
- The mix is genuine. Don't take this role if you only want one of the two — take it if you want both, and want to grow at both.What You'll Do
- On the content side:
- • Create high-quality study material across substantive law (CrPC, CPC, IPC, Evidence, Contract, Constitution, Torts, Jurisprudence, etc.) and procedural law for our exam syllabi
- • You may need to hire Legal Intern and manage them in order to grow the team
- • Build MCQ question banks with clear, defensible answers and detailed explanations
- • Draft model answers for mains-format questions and concise case-law summaries
- • Vet content created by freelancers and external SMEs — our name should never go on anything that isn't accurate
- • Track legal developments (new judgments, statute amendments, rule changes) and update material accordingly
- • Write video scripts and short explainers for social content
- • Contribute to the design of mock tests, test series, and answer-writing programs
- On the drafting side:
- • Assist with drafting petitions, replies, legal opinions, and contracts on matters routed to the firm
- • Research case law and statutory provisions to support ongoing matters
- • Attend strategy discussions, take notes, and — where appropriate — court visits
What we need
- Have an LLB from a recognized law college (NLU or top-tier institute is a plus, but not required; what matters more is your grasp of substantive law)
- • Did well in your law school core subjects — particularly CrPC, CPC, IPC, Evidence, Contract, and Constitution
- • Write clearly and precisely — legal content must be both accurate and accessible to students
- • Are intellectually honest — if you don't know an answer, you check; if a precedent is overruled, you flag it
- • Care about teaching — you remember what it felt like to be confused by a concept and you want to help students get past it faster than you did
- • Are genuinely interested in both legal content and legal practice — not just one
- • Move fast and take ownership without waiting for permission
