Law firm conventions

Education with honours and journal work stays high for the first several years. Bar admissions with dates, then practice areas, then experience: matters described by type, court or forum, your role and result, without client names. Publications and speaking get a short section. The general Legal Resume covers in-house and legal operations roles; the Paralegal Resume is the support-role layout. Government lawyers may need the Federal Resume format.

Format

Serif type, no color, no columns; this layout follows the Professional Serif Resume design. One page for associates, two for partners. Law students can start from the College Student Resume structure with education first.
