Why doesn't my local Process Server have connections in your area?

Most Process Servers are busy handling the work in their own area.  We have made it easy to get papers served ANYWHERE by developing a network of Process Servers throughout the world.  All you do is send your documents to us and we'll take care of everything!  You can call us toll-free at (800)417-7623.

Who is Process Service Network?

Process Service Network is the world's premier international service of process company specializing in creative methods to serve overseas defendants.  We have affiliates in virtually every foreign nation.  See our page on International Service at http://www.processnet1.com/internat.htm .

Nelson Tucker started the company in 1978 with a focus on Southern California.   Soonafter, attorneys requested service in other areas of the state and throughout the United States.  In 1984, a network of private process servers was formed to handle service of process throughout North America.

Today, service can be completed anywhere in the world!  Process Service Network has developed a reliable network of experienced and professional private process servers who offer their services at reduced rates.  Just one call to Process Service Network will result in service anywhere!

What is the normal turnaround time for completing service?

As soon as possible!  The only delay will be the availability of the defendant.  All domestic services are attempted in no more than 48 hours from date of receipt.  There is no way to predict the exact time a defendant will be served but we make every effort to complete it as soon as possible.  The process server has an incentive since they do not get paid until the documents are served!

  Specializing in International Service and "hard-to-serve" cases

Here's what we will need to serve your documents:

  1. Three (3) sets of the documents to be served (all copies are okay); OR email attachment in PDF format (we'll make the copies if we're doing the translation)

  2. A brief letter of instructions, including the service address and requested method of service (formal or informal)

  3. Payment for the service fees.  If translation is required, we will bill you for the translation after that phase is completed

  4. It's that simple!

A note about copies:  There is no charge for copies made if sent via email attachment or fax if translation is being done by us.  However, service documents sent to us via email or fax for regular domestic and international assignments are subject to a $.25/page copy fee.  Copy fees are waived for documents to be translated.

Terms and Conditions:    * Guaranteed service means we will serve the documents at the address provided, if service is legally possible. Dated documents may require a re-set of the court date if unable to serve in time.  Additional charge will apply for additional addresses and attempts on dated documents after re-set.  Guarantee does not apply to investigations, out-of-area process service, small claims cases, documents with specific court dates, or international service of process due to circumstances that may occur beyond our control or in certain nations and we cannot be responsible for such circumstances. Service outside the U.S. is often slow and cumbersome; we cannot guarantee the stated timeframes since they are based on prior experience and circumstances changes without notice. Like all process servers, we charge for each address attempted. No refunds will be made after institution of any assignment, for any reason.  All fees are due and payable upon demand. Financial obligation is not relieved due to non-payment and non-payment cannot be construed as a waiver of contract, or cancellation of services, for assignments made to our firm. Services will not be completed until all fees are paid; fee obligation remains in effect even though payment has not been made.  Our fees cover all known governmental fees in foreign nations and our fee to handle the service; in rare cases, extra charges may apply to cover governmental agency fees, example:  China. There is an Embassy fee of $735.00 per defendant on all Letters Rogatory assignments.  By assigning a service to PSN, client gives permission to PSN to sign their name on the Request for Service Abroad, the transmittal form used to request service pursuant to the Hague Service Convention.  No other permissions are given. Accounts that are not paid by the established deadlines are subject to civil action to collect the amount due, plus costs, and attorneys fees (if applicable).  The court of jurisdiction is Los Angeles County, California. By assigning a service assignment to us, you agree to all terms and conditions.

Note:  We've been in business since 1978, so we must be doing it right.
