Frequently Asked Questions

How much do you charge for your legal CV writing services?

I charge a fixed fee depending on your experience level:

£199 for Aspiring Lawyers.

£349 for NQ+ and Legal Practitioners.

The fee includes unlimited revisions until you are 100% satisfied. I am that confident in my services.

Does the fixed fee include a consultation and or revisions?

I am more than happy to give you a call and run through any questions you have before making a start on your legal CV.

I have an urgent deadline can you do a quick turnaround?

I have a set time frame of at least 7 days for a first draft – I do not offer any expedited services. Please only order if you are happy with the turnaround time.

How does the CV writing process work?
CV writing is a joint effort – I need the information from you to be able to gear the legal CV towards the type of job / role you are after. The more specific you are, the better I can tailor your legal CV.

Regarding your past experience, even from different industries, I will revamp and reword where I think appropriate to give the legal CV more impact but you will need to review and ensure what is written accurately reflects your roles and responsibilities. I may also need further information from you such as achievements and highlights from your roles.

I will send you a first draft to review, and from there we can make any amendments and adjustments as you see fit.

What about cover letters or applications?

Please get in touch with me to discuss your requirements.

I request that you send me a copy of any draft cover letter or application in word format, together with the job description or online posting.

Fees are dependent on the length of applications. 

Do you write legal CVs for international use or UK only?
The legal CVs I prepare are based on the general standards / requirements expected in the UK legal job market, which I have been trained in. However, these can easily be adjusted according to your local requirements.

For example, in some countries it is standard for CVs to contain a photo of the person, date of birth, nationality etc. These can easily be incorporated and do not affect the content / wording of the legal CV, which is the important part.

I am a law student - can I use your legal cv writing service?
Yes! Helping law students and graduates secure entry level positions, training contracts or paralegal positions is one of my passions. I have been there, I know how tough it is – so that is why I want to use my industry expertise to better your chances of securing an interview with a stand-out legal CV!
Why should I use your legal cv writing service?
Because I have all the credentials to back-up / support my offering: I am a qualified legal professional and experienced CV writer. I know not only what law firms and or legal employers expect to see in a legal CV but also understand the psychology behind CV writing in general.
