Attorney at Law

Haynes and Lincoln Law Firm

452 54th Street

Any Town, USA 99999

Dear Mr. Haynes:

I've practiced general law for the past three years in Small Town, USA and now I would like to focus on research for a variety of cases. I understand from your listing on JobBankUSA.com that you are in dire need of a general attorney.

I am writing this cover letter to apply for that position. I would like to arrange with you to work part-time in the office and part-time in my home, in order to help my wife care for our two children. My home office is set up for this kind of work and I promise to deliver my best as I partner with other general attorneys in your firm who, as I’ve found out from your web site, practice in various areas.

I would be happy to have an interview with you to show you the cases that exhibit my success, and to find out if I meet your requirements for the job.

I'm available to meet you any afternoon after 3:00 p.m. Please call 888-888-8888 to arrange a time that fits your schedule. I hope to be a part of your law firm in the days ahead. Thank you for taking the time to consider my cover letter.

Sincerely,

Gordon Appleton
