What Clients Say
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).
Baylen LinnekinExecutive DirectorKeep Food Legal Foundation
Having them out there is such a relief because I know when I turn a brief over to them, it’s going to be right, it’s going to look good, and it’s going to be done on time.

This is my third time working with Cockle on a cert petition and you guys have always been awesome. I would not consider working with anyone else on my Supreme Court filings. Paulo R. Lima, Esq. Russo Appellate Firm, P.A.
Paulo R. Lima, Esq.
Please convey my extreme gratitude to the proofreaders for their careful work. What may seem to be a mere technical matter, is not at all, but is quite important to the persuasiveness of my presentations to the Court.

I contacted and compared over 10 companies before selecting Cockle Legal Briefs. As a pro se litigant, Andy Cockle made the overwhelming process seem easy thanks in part to his patience and detailed explanations. The staff produced excellent work. Cockle exceeded my expectations.

I have used Cockle for dozens and dozens of briefs and they have done a superb job every time. They are experts on the Supreme Court’s rules and ensure that everything is in compliance with them. They are amazingly fast and always truly a pleasure to work with.

I wanted to thank Andy [for connecting us to the right resource to resolve our procedural question].… You could have simply done the printing and charged us for it, but instead you helped us get the procedure correct – even though that obviated the filing. Thank you! Lisa A. Mathewson The Law Offices of Lisa A. Mathewson, LLC

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!

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.

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.
