The cost of a legal resume writing service varies from company to company. Generally, the price depends on the writer's expertise, location, turnaround time, and whether you need additional services such as career advice or practical skills coaching.

Some legal resume services are highly overpriced. Our website offers customized legal resumes at a price affordable even for students.

The cost of your resume will depend on the following factors:

• type of paper you need (resume or CV)
• deadline
• additional documents (cover letter, follow-up letter, etc.).

At a very moderate price, you can hire an expert who can effectively describe your legal experience, accomplishments and in-demand skills to potential employers. Invest in your job search success - work with an executive resume writer who cares for your career success.

• Follow a reverse chronological format. Unless you are changing careers, stay on a chronological resume that lists your experience starting with the most recent position. If you have 2+ years of experience, put education after the work experience section.
• Limit your resume to two pages. Create a one-page resume if you are a recent graduate with little or no experience under your belt. In all other cases, a two-page resume is your best bet. If your legal experience takes longer than two pages, shorten it and remove the jobs you had over 10 years ago.
• Include your specialization. Hiring managers pay attention to job titles and company names in the first place. So, mention your specialization (corporate law, tax law, labor law, etc.) in a job title or a resume summary section.

• List professional accomplishments. When describing your previous jobs or private practice, include accomplishments in addition to your daily duties, for example, saving costs for clients, negotiating successful agreements, or high client satisfaction rate.
• Use powerful action verbs. Describe your past jobs in terms of successes and results rather than daily tasks. Start each bullet point with powerful words that emphasize your contribution and impact, for example, oversaw, directed, analyzed.
• Do not overcomplicate the language. Remember that a person reading your resume might not be familiar with legal jargon. Use simple language where possible to make your resume easy to understand for recruiters.
