Legal CVs built around
your practice and your matters.
A legal CV is read for three things first: your qualification and PQE, your practice area, and the matters you've worked on. We'll set those out clearly, describe your caseload or deal experience with the detail a partner or general counsel expects, and keep every claim precise. In law, the CV is also a sample of your work.
Early career, legal leadership or changing direction.
A City firm, a high street practice and an in-house team each read a legal CV differently. Here's how we approach each stage.
A large profession, spread across the country.
There were 214,773 solicitors on the roll in England and Wales at the end of August 2026, according to the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Legal services contributed £38 billion to the UK economy in 2024 and employ around 364,000 people, and almost two thirds of those jobs are outside London.
That spread matters for your CV. A regional firm, a City practice and an in-house legal team are looking for different things, and the same experience needs presenting differently for each.

Professionals who got where they wanted to go.
James Greenall was brilliant, he totally grasped what I wanted off the back of a single phone call. I work in quite a niche industry so this was super impressive. All really quick an easy and now I have a great CV to hit the ground running. Excellent service James, thanks so much. It was a pleasure and I would not hesitate to recommend you.
I am so pleased with the service and end result. They did a great free CV review for me which made me realise that expertise was required. Sarah arranged a call, we discussed my career and she listened. Then as promised the documents arrived. As she had really paid attention I had very few amends, the CV and cover letter are professional, concise, informative and what I need for the next step in my career. It's a fantastic service which I will recommend to others, writing a CV is so hard for yourself! Thank you so much!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Louise, and I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding job she did on my CV. Louise was professional, attentive and clearly dedicated to producing a high quality result. The whole process was smooth and efficient and Louise made it easy every step of the way. I highly recommend to anyone looking to elevate their professional profile.

Legal CV writing: common questions
Yes. Our legal CV writing covers paralegals, trainees, solicitors and in-house lawyers in England and Wales, through to partners and general counsel. Your qualification, PQE and representative matters are set out where a recruiter can read them in seconds.
Your qualification, admission date and PQE, and whether you qualified through the SQE or a training contract. Then your practice area, shown through two or three representative matters with your role and values where you can share them. Accreditations like Higher Rights or STEP belong near the top.
Yes. Through the SQE you can qualify with a degree in any subject and two years of qualifying work experience, which can come from up to four organisations and must be confirmed by a solicitor. Moving between private practice and in-house needs a similar translation, from billable matters to commercial outcomes.
Our professional CV writing starts at £229 for legal professionals up to senior associate level. For partners, heads of legal and general counsel, executive CV writing starts at £329.
