What Clients Say
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.
Steve DurhamOffice of the Jefferson County Attorney (Kentucky)
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.

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.

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.

This petition is a masterpiece. Don’t ever underestimate what you guys do. I have filed in state appellate and supreme courts, but SCOTUS is a different animal. When someone like me calls you – it’s like planning a wedding or a once in a lifetime event. Thank you.

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.

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.

I don’t know whether you and your team are aware that, indeed, the U.S. Supreme Court granted our petition and remanded the case for further consideration. I forgot to timely express my appreciation. Belatedly, I want to reach out and thank your team members for helping us make this very important achievement. Yes, “Better Briefs Win.”
