Process Serving and Notarizing prices
The "Federal Rules of Civil Procedure" are
where the rules & regulations of process serving can be found.
Remember to check with your state's rules
as well (if any) & to always double-check information in case
it is incomplete or needs to be updated. These tips are not
intended to be legal advice but merely informational suggestions.
Other Helpful Tips:
Bring a watch or a clock, so
you can note the time of service. Make sure to ask for the name
of the person you serve (if unacquainted). Put the documents
to be served in a sealed envelope. Type the party's name on
the outside of the envelope. Bring tape with you in case you
need to "post" the envelope on a door. Be sure to have the server
fill out a "Proof of Service" of "Affidavit of Service." Finally,
be safe!
