Domain Expert - Legal(NetDocuments) - review AI outputs in your specialty
Listed on Mercor as “Domain Expert - Legal(NetDocuments)”
What this actually is
You bring your specialist expertise to AI evaluation. The shape of the work varies but the pattern is the same: review outputs, rate quality, write prompts, flag errors. The platform title (Domain Expert - Legal(NetDocuments)) reflects the rate band and the expertise required, not the day-to-day work.

Original posting from Mercor
To qualify you must use NetDocuments regularly - weekly or more - as a working part of your job, with 2+ years of experience in a law firm or legal department.
NetDocuments knowledge we require
Core (required of all candidates)
- Knows how matter-centric filing works: cabinets, workspaces, folders, and profile metadata (client, matter, document type, author), and how misprofiled documents get lost
- Knows how versioning works: official vs. draft versions, check-in and check-out, and which version controls
- Knows how ethical walls and access controls work, and when moving or sharing a document breaches one
- Knows how to file email and attachments to the right matter (ndMail or equivalent) and find them again
- Knows how retention, legal holds, and records disposition apply, and when a document must not be deleted or moved
Specialized depth (strong working knowledge in at least 2-3 of the following)
- Litigation support: productions, privilege review, Bates numbering and redaction
- Records management and matter closing or archiving
- Conflicts and new-matter intake
- Knowledge management, templates, and precedent libraries
- NetDocuments administration: security, cabinet configuration, PatternBuilder and automation
- Transactional practice: closing sets, deal rooms, document comparison
What you'll do
- Confirm a document is filed, profiled, versioned, and secured correctly for the matter, not just that it exists somewhere
- Catch documents filed to the wrong matter, the wrong official version, broken ethical walls, and changes to documents the task did not ask to touch
- Judge completeness: were all related documents and emails handled, or only the first one found
- Distinguish "the system allowed it" from "a records manager or partner would approve it"
- Verify that a request that should be refused (deleting a document under legal hold, sharing across an ethical wall) is refused rather than forced through
Requirements
- Frequent NetDocuments use - weekly or more - in your current or recent role
- 2+ years as a paralegal, legal assistant, records manager, litigation support specialist, DMS administrator, or practicing attorney
- Can spot a misfiled document, a wrong official version, or a confidentiality breach on sight
- Paralegal certificate, J.D., or equivalent law firm experience; iManage or other DMS experience is a plus
- Strong working knowledge in at least 2-3 specialized areas above
- Prior data annotation, labeling, or AI evaluation experience is a plus
