Why Become an Axiom Lawyer?
Axiom is the global leader in high-calibre on-demand lawyer jobs.
Companies and organisations in every major industry — including over half of the US Fortune 100 — rely on our exacting standards to help their in-house departments work more efficiently without sacrificing legal outcomes.
If you've been waiting for a chance to do challenging and innovative legal work with a top global client, Axiom offers incredible opportunities, no matter the stage of your career.
- Self-Employed Lawyers: Looking for more stability in your solo practice? We can offer consistent, high-quality work tailored to your current and future interests.
- Early Career Lawyers: We offer legal jobs for all experience levels. You'll be able to choose interesting engagements that best align with your goals.
- In-House Experience: Axiom's lawyer jobs can provide seasoned professionals a path to shift from law firms to in-house counsel roles.
As an Axiom lawyer, you'll be able to choose among a wide range of engagements — including full-time and part-time hours, flexible hours, and remote and on-site opportunities — to achieve the work-life balance you consider ideal. And because you're always in control, you'll also be free to take as much – or as little – time off between legal jobs as you like.
For even more flexibility, Axiom also has remote legal jobs available.
Axiom Lawyer Jobs vs. Recruitment Agency Placement
Axiom is not a legal recruitment agency.
While a recruitment agency is typically interested in high-volume, low-complexity lawyer jobs, Axiom was founded with the express purpose of fulfilling the complex resourcing needs unique to in-house departments. We pride ourselves on our ability to provide elite lawyers with challenging and consequential assignments that align with their professional goals.
Axiom legal professionals are classified as employees, not independent contractors. As an employee, you'll receive an annualized salary (prorated for time spent on engagements) that's competitive with comparable in-house roles and most law firms. You'll also be eligible for various employee benefits.

To join this elite cohort, lawyers must be capable of consistently meeting or exceeding our clients' highest standards. While we're always on the lookout for outstanding legal and business acumen, we also focus significant time and energy searching for the intangibles that make a lawyer truly great: proactivity, adaptability, judgment, a freshness of approach, and the ability to work well within our clients' commercial environments.
Committed to a Diverse, Equitable, and Inclusive Workplace
The Axiom legal bench isn't just deep on talent; it also continues to be more diverse in terms of race, ethnicity, and gender than legal industry standards.
Legal diversity is important to us. The choice, autonomy, and flexibility inherent in the Axiom lawyer jobs naturally facilitate a more diverse and inclusive network than you would typically encounter with our industry peers. However, our commitment to a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace is also evident in our corporate offices, where more than half of all leadership roles are held by individuals identifying as women.
In recent years, Axiom has taken additional steps to nurture a more diverse and inclusive workplace for corporate employees and legal professionals. We've also celebrated some notable milestones, including the achievement of gender parity across our senior leadership team.
