About Andy Cockle

Andy is a third generation legal brief printer. Cockle Law Brief Printing was founded in 1923 by Andy’s grandparents, who were both attorneys. At that time, the Cockles worked primarily with briefs that were filed in the Nebraska Supreme Court. In the 1980s, Andy and Trish—Andy’s sister and partner—guided the company to specialize in U.S. Supreme Court briefs. Andy is a lifelong resident of Omaha, and he obtained a Business degree from the University of Nebraska at Omaha. He started working at Cockle Law Brief Printing in 1982. Andy schedules briefs, handles marketing, tracks the Supreme Court’s docket, and fields the myriad questions that attorneys ask him in regard to filing a U.S. Supreme Court brief. He enjoys handball, rollerblading, reading and with his wife, Mary Helen, traveling to visit his two grown children.
