Questions

Legal resume FAQs

What should a legal resume include?

Lead with what employers in legal screen for: matters and practice areas, admission and credentials, precision in writing. The work you have handled, described with appropriate confidentiality. Then list your work history with results, not just duties, plus your qualifications and the systems you use.

How do I get my legal resume past the ATS?

Use the exact job title and skills from the ad (for example "lawyer & solicitor" or "paralegal"), keep standard headings like Work experience and Skills, keep your contact details in the main body, and send a Word file or text-based PDF. Our free ATS check scores your resume out of 100 and lists the top fixes.
