Personal Statement Editing Service
LawyHer’s Unique Approach: Making You the Star of Your Law School Story
At LawyHer, we understand that your personal statement is more than just an essay—it’s your opportunity to shine. Our goal is to help you craft a compelling narrative that not only reflects your unique experiences but also aligns seamlessly with the other components of your law school application.
We’ve heard directly from admissions officers, including those from Yale Law School, about the critical importance of having a cohesive and powerful narrative. We’re here to help you achieve that.
Our Process: Tailored Support Every Step of the Way
For a fee of $150, our Personal Statement Review service offers:
Initial Consultation (20 minutes): We begin with a one-on-one call to briefly discuss your law school choices and brainstorm potential topics for your personal statement. This session is designed to help you identify a narrative that ties together your experiences and aspirations in a way that enhances your entire application.
Three Rounds of Expert Editing: After your initial draft, you’ll receive detailed feedback and editing suggestions from one of our experienced reviewers. These editors are knowledgeable and skilled in storytelling, helping you refine your statement to its most compelling form. Our editing process includes up to three rounds of revisions, ensuring your personal statement is polished and impactful. We promise a 7-day turnaround time for each round of edits, so you can stay on track with your application timeline.
Optional Conferences (30 minutes each): Along with written feedback, we offer up to two 30-minute conferences to discuss edits and further refine your narrative. These sessions provide you with direct, personalized guidance to ensure your personal statement truly represents your story.
