What Clients Say
To all both in and behind the scenes, I received your package confirming the shipment and service of my petition. I thank you and your staff for your professionalism, your attention to every detail, and the flexibility your company afforded me when unforeseen obstacles appeared. I’m happy to know that the quality of your pamphlets will be the first impression received by the Court. After ten years of “do it yourself” service, I would not hesitate to retain your company’s services when the need arises, just as I will not hesitate to recommend you to family and friends. I hope to require your services in the near future. Stay safe and Happy Holidays! Tim Murphy

This is to express my appreciation for the expertise and professionalism of your team in processing our amicus brief. The initial proofreading team did a first rate job. I was very impressed by the attention to detail in the second round of edits done by Shelley and Mary Ann. Everyone was most helpful. You have a terrific organization. Many thanks.

We had a variety of contacts with members of Cockle Legal Briefs that carried common themes: We were treated as valued customers and were given straightforward and honest information at every step of the way. Thanks for the respectful service and for ensuring the brief was timely filed.

My colleagues and I have been working with Cockle Printing for over twenty-five years. They have produced dozens of legal briefs for us, always with such efficiency and cordiality that a high-pressure task becomes a pleasure. I would not dream of submitting a brief to the Supreme Court without having it vetted by Cockle. Even an attorney with extensive Supreme Court experience can overlook some nuance of the Supreme Court’s rules or practice; Cockle’s intimate familiarity with both written and unwritten rules can spare you an embarrassing mistake. I am always delighted when our opponents have been foolish enough to have their briefs printed elsewhere.

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!

Thank you for all of your assistance. You make me look better than I ever thought I could. It was great to put all of these details in the hands of someone else and know that the petition would be timely filed and competently handled.

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.

The oral argument in Haeger v. Goodyear went well! I want to thank you and your staff for the wonderful support and your very kind indulgence.

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.
