Cocketts Law is a law firm that takes pride in our practice and profession, acknowledges the courageous shoulders we stand on, and is driven by a prominent message that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. shared in 1967. In a high school commencement address, Dr. King reminded graduating Philadelphia (USA) students that in their "life's blueprint" should be a deep belief in their dignity, worth and somebodyness, along with the determination to achieve excellence, and commitment to the eternal principles of beauty, love and justice. This message echoes beyond the decades and distance to profoundly impact us in our professional pursuits each day.
