The The Lawyer's Resume Resume Template

Conservative industries — banking, finance, law — are scanned by the most rigid ATS configurations and the most risk-averse recruiters. Plain, serif, single-column formatting removes any reason for a screener to flag or misparse your resume.

Yes — dedicated space for certifications and credentials sits prominently near the top, which matters for finance and accounting recruiters scanning for licences first.

Best for legal roles — double-rule header, formal Times, zero frills. It's one of 37 templates in Cursivo's library, so if it's not the right fit after all you can switch without losing any of your content.
