Frequently Asked Questions:

What is Process Service

Process service is the legal delivery of court documents to an individual or business involved in a legal matter. Proper service ensures that all parties receive notice of legal proceedings and helps satisfy due process requirements.

Who can serve papers?

Originally, process service was performed by sheriffs or deputies, and agents of the court. This became a burden on law enforcement, so the legislation was changed. Now, in many states, any US citizen that is not a party to the case, over the age of 18, and residing in the state where the matter is to be tried can serve papers. All JPL Process Servers are registered and bonded California Process Servers.

Why should I hire a professional process server?

Hiring a professional process server helps ensure your documents are served correctly, efficiently, and in compliance with applicable laws and court rules. Improper service can delay your case, increase costs, or result in service being challenged. JPL Process Service LLC has been assisting attorneys, businesses, government agencies, and private individuals since 2000.

Who can serve legal documents?

Regular service averages 3-7 working days, and rush service is completed from within one hour to two days. Assignments originating and completed in Southern California are usually completed within 72 hours.

What do your prices include?

We have flat rate pricing on all of our services! That means you pay NO HIDDEN FEES. We continue your assignment until it is completed or until the court date arrives. We are honest about our pricing up front, what the fees include, and always contact you beforehand in the event any extra expenses occur.

How does pricing work?

We charge per address we attempt service. Depending on location we give you best pricing. We always let you know how much your service is before we get started.

How much does process service cost?

Pricing depends on several factors, including:

The service location
The type of documents being served
The level of urgency
Any special instructions or court requirements

JPL Process Service LLC provides transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Contact us for a quote specific to your assignment.

How long does Services Take?

How many atempts of service are incuded?

Most standard services include multiple attempts at one address. The number of attempts may vary depending on the jurisdiction, service type, and instructions provided. If additional attempts are needed after a service has been closed, a new service fee may apply.

Can you serve documents at a workplace?

Yes. Many individuals and business representatives are successfully served at their place of employment. However, some workplaces have security policies that may impact access.

Our process servers will make reasonable efforts to complete service while complying with applicable laws and workplace restrictions.

What is substitute service?

Substitute service is a method of service permitted in certain jurisdictions when personal service cannot be completed after reasonable diligence. Requirements vary by state and case type. If substitute service becomes an option, we will provide guidance regarding the applicable procedures.

What if the person is avoiding service?

Many people actively avoid being served. Our process servers are experienced in handling evasive subjects and use professional techniques to maximize the likelihood of successful service. If necessary, additional services such as stakeouts or skip tracing may be available.

Can someone refuse to accept service?

In many situations, a person cannot avoid service simply by refusing to accept documents. The validity of service depends on the laws of the jurisdiction and the circumstances surrounding the service.

Our process servers document each assignment carefully and complete service in accordance with applicable rules.
