Philadelphia Methods of Service

Philadelphia has several different methods of service, which include:

  • 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 via both first-class mail and certified mail

  • Substituted service: If the former writ or complaint was lost or destroyed, a substituted writ can be issued

  • 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)

Who to Serve and Where

Those suing an individual will simply serve that individual at their place of business or residence. Although there are different rules if you're filing a complaint against a corporation or political subdivision. No matter who you’re serving in the City of Brotherly Love, Proof’s servers will get your papers where they need to go.
