Why Choose the Petition Guy?
1
Former Federal Officer Insight
Decades of Port and Agency Experience
Trained at FLETC with nearly 30 years at DHS and DOJ, I look at your case the way the officers reviewing it will. You get direct, strategic administrative guidance built to hold up under agency review, not generic advice.
2
Rapid Response Before Deadlines Hit
Action Before Time Runs Out
Federal seizure and penalty notices run on strict timelines, often just 30 days. I move quickly to help you understand your options and build a strong petition for remission or mitigation before the window closes.
3
Dedicated Vehicle and Cargo Casework
Supporting Carriers, Cargo and Individuals
Whether you’re an international traveler or a trucking fleet with seized or detained tractors, trailers, or freight, you work with me directly, one on one. No hand-offs and no case queues, just clear guidance 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 has 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. He knows how these cases are reviewed from the inside. Petition Guy applies that knowledge to seizure and penalty petitions, FOIA requests, trade compliance reviews, and liaison with elected officials. The goal is work that holds up under agency review, not just sounds good on paper.
Petition Guy is an administrative consulting service, not a law firm or customs broker. You file in your own name, and Tim guides you through each step with clear strategy, steady follow-through, and a focus on getting your property released.
APPROACH
Navigating Agency Procedures with Clear Strategy
Whether you’re dealing with a CBP seizure, a trade penalty, or an administrative notice, my approach rests on three things.
Honest Assessments. You get a candid read on your case up front and at every step.
Inside Knowledge. Your petition is built with insight from decades of port operations.
Deadline Discipline. Clear timelines, steady communication, and dependable follow-through.
Whether you face a seized vehicle, a cargo penalty, or a port-of-entry fine, I help you build a structured, well-supported response and work toward getting your property back.

"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.”
