Geo-tagged Images

LA is known for its sprawl, so the fact that Proof always provides geo-tagged photos as proof that your documents have been properly served is a huge boon.

Reviewed Affidavits

When your process server makes a successful serve, you’ll get a signed and notarized affidavit that’s reviewed by our experts for accuracy.

Two-Way Communication

Whether you’re in LA or across the country, staying in touch with your process server is simple with 2-way chat. Feel free to ask questions and feel relief knowing your server can reach you if they need to.

Experienced Process Servers

Los Angeles Methods of Service

The method of service that’s best for you will depend greatly on your specific case and its needs. Los Angeles offers all of the essential methods you might need

  • Personal service: When someone who is not a party to the case hand-delivers documents to the other side

  • Service by mail: When someone who is not a party to the case mails documents to the other side

  • Substituted service: After 3 or more failed attempts to serve the papers, the process server can then leave the papers with someone else at the party’s residence

  • Service by notice and acknowledgment of receipt: When the other side agrees to be served by mail and will sign an acknowledgment of receipt for the court

  • Service by posting on the premises and mailing (for eviction cases only): Sometimes called “nail and mail,” this is when you post a notice on the premises 

  • Service by publication: When you publish the summons and complaint in a newspaper (this is usually for when you do not know where the other party lives or works)

Service by posting (at the courthouse): When the summons and complaint are posted in a designated place at the courthouse itself

Who to Serve and Where

If you’re looking to serve an individual, then our process servers will first focus on their home and place of work, but they’re not limited to those two places. They’ll be able to serve the other party wherever they can find them. If you’re serving a business or group of some kind, then you’ll want to trust our experts to help you determine the best way to serve.

Process Server Rules in LA

Los Angeles follows the same process server rules as the rest of California, which means that servers must be at least 18, unrelated to the case, and able to serve the paperwork required in the appropriate time frame.
