Why Choose the Petition Guy?
1
Former Federal Officer Insight
Decades of Port & Agency Experience
Trained at FLETC and backed by nearly 30 years under DHS and DOJ, I evaluate your case through the lens of the officers enforcing it. You get direct, strategic administrative guidance designed to hold up under agency scrutiny—not generic advice.
2
Rapid Response & Filing Deadlines
Action Before Deadlines Expire
Federal enforcement operates on strict, unforgiving timelines—often just 30 days from a seizure or penalty notice. We prioritize rapid, custom petition drafting focused on remission, penalty mitigation, or complete dismissal of claims.
3
Dedicated Asset & Commercial Recovery
Protecting Carriers, Cargo & Individuals
Whether you are an international traveler or a commercial trucking fleet facing impounded tractors, trailers, or freight, you receive direct, one-on-one casework. No law office mills, no hand-offs—just clear advocacy focused on getting your property back.
ABOUT
Inside Knowledge. Decisive Casework.
When CBP seizes your vehicle or freight — or a federal notice lands on your desk — you need someone who's worked the other side of that counter.
Tim Moroney spent nearly three decades as a federal officer with DOJ and DHS, including firsthand work at California's ports enforcing the same procedures now working against you. Petition Guy applies that inside knowledge to seizure and penalty petitions, FOIA requests, trade compliance reviews, and liaison with elected officials — built to hold up under agency scrutiny, not just sound good on paper.
Petition Guy is an administrative consulting service, not a law firm. We deliver disciplined, pro-se casework support: clear procedural strategy, dependable follow-through, and a relentless focus on getting your property released.

"Petition Guy helped us recover our tractor and trailer after CBP seized them. Algodon Transport Corp had no connection to the controlled substances involved, but we were still treated unfairly. It was a stressful situation. Petition Guy handled everything professionally and quickly. They kept us informed and got results. We recovered our equipment."
Algodon Transport Corporation
“I use two trucks and two trailers for my work between Mexico and the U.S. When CBP took them, I didn’t know where to turn. Petition Guy stepped in, explained everything, and handled the process. Because of them, the vehicles were released in just a few weeks — not months. They also made CBP answer for what happened. I’m very thankful. They protected my business and helped me keep working.”
