    Description

    DESCRIPTION

    Every day, small businesses get hit by fraud and have nowhere to turn.

    An SEC felon walking free while the small business loses everything. This isn’t a hypothetical but real life and it’s happening now.

    White Knight Law was built to change that.

    We are a first-of-its-kind AI-powered legal advocacy organization — combining cutting-edge artificial intelligence, a trained team of paralegals, and mission-driven attorneys to deliver sophisticated legal support to small business owners and crime victims who could never afford it otherwise.

    We don’t do simple. We take the hard cases — complex fraud, criminal impersonation, financial crimes, abuse of legal process — and we pursue accountability with tools and strategy that most small businesses never had access to before. AI-assisted document analysis. Intelligent case management. Criminal referral packages built to prosecutorial standards. Real litigation, at scale, for the people who need it most.

    This is what justice looks like when technology and mission align.

    We’re looking for an attorney who wants to be part of building it.

    What You’ll Do

    Work alongside WKL’s founder and AI-augmented paralegal team on active matters — advising on litigation strategy, reviewing and drafting legal documents, supporting criminal referrals to law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies, and helping shape the legal infrastructure of a groundbreaking nonprofit.

    This is not a document review assignment. You will have a real voice in real cases that real people are counting on.

    You’re the Right Person If

    You’re a New York-licensed attorney with litigation experience — civil, criminal, or both. You’re excited by the intersection of law and technology. You want your pro bono hours to count for something beyond a bar requirement.

    Experience in financial fraud, white-collar, small business law, or nonprofit work is a plus. What matters most is judgment, courage, and the belief that a small business owner who got robbed deserves the same legal firepower as the person who robbed them.

    What You’ll Walk Away With

    A front-row seat at the future of legal advocacy. Experience with AI-powered litigation tools before they’re mainstream. Direct collaboration with a founder with deep corporate, governance, and litigation background. And the knowledge that you helped level a playing field that was never level to begin with.
