⚖️ FineWeb-Legal-Pilot
66.8M words of the finest legal domain data the 🌐 web has to offer.
Repo: GitHub | Report: Technical Report
What is it?
FineWeb-Legal-Pilot is a pilot dataset consiting of 52k high-quality legal documents filtered from the 10-billion-token sample of 🍷 FineWeb.
To enhance FineWeb's utility for legal AI domain adaptation, we draw inspiration from the FineWeb-Edu methodology: creating a legal quality classifier using annotations generated by Mistral-Medium. We then used this classifier to score and retain only the most legally significant web pages (case law, statutes, filings).
This pilot release serves as a validation step before scaling the pipeline to the full 44TB FineWeb corpus.
What is being released?
Along with the dataset, we are releasing the legal classifier model used for filtering, as well as the training code and annotation pipeline:
- Dataset (Filtered): This repo (
fineweb-legal-pilot) - Dataset (Annotations): NoeFlandre/fineweb-legal-annotations
- Classifier: HuggingFaceFW/fineweb-legal-classifier
- Code: GitHub Repository
How to load the dataset
You can load the full dataset (default) or one of the specialized high-quality subsets.
Configurations
| Config | Min Score | Train (docs) | Test (docs) | Total Docs | Total Words | Avg Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
default |
≥ 3.0 | 46,918 | 5,214 | 52,132 | 66.9M | 4.21 |
high_quality |
≥ 4.0 | 29,101 | 3,234 | 32,335 | 46.9M | 4.60 |
supreme |
≥ 4.8 | 14,971 | 1,664 | 16,635 | 29.4M | 4.98 |
default: All identified legal documents. Broadest coverage.high_quality: Strong legal content. Case law, statutes, contracts.supreme: Gold Standard. Supreme Court opinions, primary legislation.
Using datasets
from datasets import load_dataset
# Load the "Supreme" Gold Standard configuration
ds = load_dataset("NoeFlandre/fineweb-legal-pilot", "supreme", split="train")
# Load the default configuration
ds_default = load_dataset("NoeFlandre/fineweb-legal-pilot", "default")
Dataset Curation
We adopted the synthetic data annotation approach pioneered by FineWeb-Edu.
Annotation
We used Mistral-Medium to score 6,500 FineWeb samples on a scale of 0 to 5, based on their legal value.
| Score | Label | Description | Examples |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | Noise/Spam | Navigation, ads, gibberish | Cookie notices, site menus |
| 1 | General/Marketing | Law firm ads, generic news | "Call our lawyers today!" |
| 2 | Basic Info | Wikipedia summaries, Reddit questions | ELI5 legal questions |
| 3 | Useful | Detailed legal news, government guides | IRS guidelines, legal blogs |
| 4 | High Value | Case text, statutes, contracts | Court filings, legislation |
| 5 | Gold Standard | Supreme Court opinions, law journals | Academic legal research |
Classifier Training
We fine-tuned a Gemma-Embedding-300m model using LoRA adapters on these annotations. The model achieves:
- Binary F1@3: 97.99%
- Validation Accuracy: 88.8%
The training process took ~2 hours on a single RTX 3090.
Filtering Results
We filtered the FineWeb 10BT sample (approx 143k candidates pre-filtered by heuristics) using this classifier.
- Input: 143,379 documents (extracted by heuristics from the original FineWeb 10BT subset)
- Output: 52,132 documents (Score ≥ 3.0)
- Top domains include
openjurist.org,findacase.com, andfederalregister.gov.
Considerations for Using the Data
Social Impact
Access to high-quality legal training data is currently restricted to proprietary databases (Westlaw, LexisNexis). By releasing FineWeb-Legal, we aim to democratize access to legal AI research, enabling the community to train open legal LLMs.
Biases
The dataset reflects the bias of the web and Common Crawl. While heavily filtered for legal content, it may still contain historical legal documents with outdated or offensive terminology typical of their era.
Limitations
This is a Pilot release derived from only 10 billion tokens. It is not yet large enough for full pre-training but is ideal for:
- Domain adaptation (fine-tuning)
- Evaluation benchmarks
- Training retrieval (RAG) embeddings
Additional Information
Licensing
The dataset is released under the MIT License and adheres to the Open Data Commons Attribution License (ODC-By) v1.0 of the parent FineWeb dataset.
