I want to thank you and your company for all of your assistance. I have been practicing for over 40 years and have been involved in over 100 cases, and your company provided the most helpful and responsive services that I have ever experienced. Your dedication to making my brief as perfect as it could be was extraordinary. The work was spotless and timely.

One thing is that they’re cheaper. But the second one is, they’ve really got the technology down.” Professor Schnapper says that the third benefit of using Omaha-based Cockle is the company’s proofreading service: “The work is really good. They go over the material with a fine-tooth comb and catch a lot of things.

Thank you all so much for your help in preparing the Petition for Writ in the Zaunbrecher case on behalf of my clients – the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe, et al.
From the first call to the last, it was a great experience. Your staff is super professional, competent and downright friendly!

Honestly, I don’t know where to start, but I will begin by thanking Andy, who gave me a chance and accepted my job. Without knowing what to expect, I picked up the phone and took a leap of faith. I picked up the phone and hung it up three different times. The fourth time, my Guardian Angel whispered to me and said: ‘Joseph, you must call Cockle,’ and assured me that this would be one of the best calls I’d ever make. Then, I dialed the number. The angel on the receiving end – after an introduction and the reason for my call, transferred me to Andy. Andy, like my Guardian Angel, was reassuring. From that first call, what I thought would be a difficult process, was simplified. Every person I spoke with handled my call with a professional touch and in the end, the work was masterpiece. I’m glad I called Cockle for my petition for writ of certiorari to the United States Supreme Court and exceedingly thank all of you for being the best at what you do! I’m so happy that I called Cockle. Remain Blessed.

Many thanks to everyone who assisted in the filing of my Extraordinary Writ of Mandamus to the U.S. Supreme Court – a special thanks to Matt, who gave extra effort to assure that my brief was accurate! As a pro se litigant, there is stress going it alone. Preparing my brief for the Court was the one phase where I did not feel alone, thanks to you.
Nina Eva Hajda, pro se

Thanks again for all of your help with our Brief in Opposition. Your suggestions were pertinent and sensible, and we could not have been more pleased with the printing and presentation of the Brief. We especially appreciated your patience with our many questions concerning the process, and the amazingly quick turnaround.

I wanted to thank you for your work on my recent brief in Horne. You were far more affordable than other options I explored. You did great work. And you and your colleagues were very helpful along the way (particularly useful as this was my first-ever SCOTUS brief).
