## 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

Diversity at Lawhive At Lawhive we know that diversity of thought is critical to delivering outlier outcomes. As such, we’re always working hard to ensure we build a diverse, inclusive team. We’re not yet where we want to be but as we scale we’ll only ever increase the focus we apply to this.

## About Lawhive

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Lawhive is an AI-native consumer law firm that combines experienced, regulated lawyers with a proprietary AI operating system to make legal services more accessible, affordable, and transparent for everyday people.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series B – raised $60M in 2026, with total funding exceeding $100M)
- **Headquarters**: London, United Kingdom
- **Founded**: 2021
- **Founders**: Not individually disclosed in search results (co-founders include a CTO named Jaime V. per LinkedIn, but full team not listed)

## Core Business
- Primary industry: Legal Services / Legal Technology (AI-powered consumer law)
- Target customers: B2C and B2B (individuals and businesses needing help with immigration, employment, family, property, conveyancing, divorce, landlord-tenant, and consumer rights)
- Mission statement: “To make legal services accessible to everyone” by combining technology, AI, and a regulated law firm to simplify legal help as easily as opening a bank account.

## Products & Services
- **AI Operating System (Lawrence)**: A proprietary AI “paralegal” that assists lawyers with legal research, document drafting, client intake, case management, and communication – reducing cost and delay.
- **Full-Service Law Firm (SRA-Regulated)**: Lawhive itself is a licensed law firm that delivers end-toend legal support, from initial consultation to case resolution, across multiple practice areas.
- **Consultant Lawyer Platform**: Lawyers can join Lawhive’s network of 300+ consultants and receive a steady stream of pre-qualified, pre-paid clients, AI tools, and full administrative support (marketing, billing, compliance) – allowing them to focus only on billable legal work.
- **Online Client Portal**: Individuals can answer a few questions, get a transparent fixed-fee or hourly quote, and be matched with a dedicated lawyer quickly.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation / Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed (private company; last round was Series B in 2026)
- **Key Metric**: Total funding of $116.2M (per LinkedIn) with Series B of $60M raised in 2026. Also reported over 12,500 satisfied clients, 2,000+ Trustpilot reviews with a 4.5-star rating, and a network of 300+ lawyers.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Mitch Rales (lead Series B), Google Ventures (GV), Balderton Capital, TQ Ventures. Also backed by England footballers Harry Maguire and Reece James.
- **Growth Signals**: 100.7% year-over-year headcount growth (now 201 employees); expanded into the United States and operates across 6 countries (UK, US, Hong Kong, Italy, Sri Lanka, Switzerland); acquired Woodstock Legal Services in early 2026; 20 active job postings as of mid-2026 with a strong focus on engineering, AI, and legal roles.

## Competitive Advantages
- **AI + Regulation Moat**: Lawhive is both a technology platform and an SRA-regulated law firm – a combination that is difficult for pure-play legal tech startups or traditional law firms to replicate.
- **Lawyer-Friendly Model**: Consultant lawyers get pre-paid clients, full admin support, and AI tools, enabling them to earn more without non-billable overhead. This attracts top legal talent.
- **Transparent Pricing**: Fixed-fee and hourly pricing with no surprises – a key differentiator in a traditionally opaque industry.
- **Strong Investor Backing**: Backed by top-tier VCs (GV, Balderton, TQ) and an iconic US industrialist (Mitch Rales), providing both financial stability and strategic credibility.

## Strategic Focus
- **US Expansion**: With a Managing Director for North America and a growing US presence, Lawhive is aggressively scaling into the American consumer legal market.
- **AI Platform Development**: Continued investment in “Lawrence” to automate more legal workflows and improve lawyer productivity.
- **Network Growth**: Increasing the number of consultant lawyers (currently 300+) to serve more clients across more practice areas.
- **Geographic & Practice Area Expansion**: Operating in 6 countries and adding new legal domains (e.g., immigration, family, property) to capture broader demand.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Values-driven organization emphasizing *bias to action*, *obsession with customers*, *communication first*, and *attention to detail*. The team is described as moving fast, thinking deeply, and pushing boundaries.
- **Remote/Hybrid Policy**: Lawhive’s consultant lawyers work from anywhere; corporate roles (engineering, product, sales) appear to be based in London with some remote flexibility (many job postings do not specify fully remote, but the culture page highlights “work from anywhere” for lawyers).
- **Notable Perks & Environment**: Engineers and product people get to work on cutting-edge AI applied to a massive, underserved market (consumer law). The company offers the chance to “transform access to the law” alongside world-class investors and a high-growth environment with 100%+ headcount growth. Roles span legal, AI/engineering, product, operations, and sales – all contributing directly to mission impact.
