Strategic CV support for paralegals, solicitors and legal professionals at every stage
Whether you’re starting out in your legal career, preparing for qualification, or exploring a move at associate or partner level, your CV needs to represent you accurately and confidently. A strong legal CV is essential in a competitive market, and this focused CV Power Hour is designed to help you present your experience in the best possible way.
Many legal professionals tell me they feel unsure about whether their CV is working for them. Others know something isn’t quite landing but can’t put their finger on what needs to change. This one-to-one Power Hour gives you the clarity you need.
What the CV Power Hour covers
Over the course of the session we will:
- Review your current CV step by step

- Strengthen the structure, layout and impact of your work history
- Highlight achievements in a way that resonates with legal recruiters and hiring partners

Frequently Asked Questions
A CV Power Hour is a focused, one-to-one session where we review your legal CV strategically and in detail. We look at what is working, what needs improvement, and how to tailor your CV effectively for each application. We also review your job search approach and identify practical steps to strengthen it.
This session is suitable for legal professionals at every stage of their career — from paralegals and those starting out in their legal career, through to trainees, NQs, associates, senior associates and partners. Whether you are preparing for qualification, considering a move, or planning long-term progression, you’ll receive advice grounded in the realities of the legal market.
It’s helpful to send your current CV before the session. It doesn’t need to be perfectly polished — even a rough draft is absolutely fine. If there is a particular role or practice area you are targeting, feel free to share that too so we can tailor the session accordingly.
During the Power Hour, we review your CV together and identify improvements you can implement immediately. You will leave with a clear action plan and practical guidance.
The CV Power Hour is still hugely valuable. Many legal professionals use it before a promotion round, to refresh a CV that hasn’t been touched in years, or to get clarity on how to position themselves for future opportunities. It’s just as useful for long-term planning as it is for immediate job searches.
Our main focus in the Power Hour is your CV and job search strategy. If time allows, we can touch on LinkedIn too and highlight quick wins.
The session is £100 + VAT for a 60-minute one-to-one appointment. You also receive an e-book to support ongoing refinement of your CV and help you continue the work independently.
You can book directly by contacting me or choosing a slot in my diary at a time that suits you. Flexible appointments are available to fit around a busy legal workload.
