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.

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).

I would like to express my thanks to Cockle Legal Briefs and personally to Shari, Andy, and to all that took part in providing me their personal and professional help. This petition has been a decade-and-a-half in the making. I simply could not have managed the filing without Cockle.

Joseph RaimondoPro Se Petitioner

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.
