What Clients Say
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.

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

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.

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.

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
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).
