Small Claims Process Serving

Plaintiff’s Claim and Order to go to Small Claims Court

We provide timely professional service of all Small Claims documents including the Plaintiff’s Claim and Order to go to Small Claims Court. This is the order issued by the small claims court clerk which must be served on the defendant within specific time frames before the pre-scheduled court date. Nothing is more frustrating than appearing for your scheduled court date only to find out that your hearing has been cancelled or rescheduled because of improper service. Our team of professional registered process servers is dedicated to performing service of all documents within the rules required for small claims court.

Substitute service can be performed on the plaintiff’s Claim and Order to go to Small Claims Court but must be completed within the preset timeframes and under all rules associated with substitute service in California. Substitute service can be defined as leaving the documents with another person of age where a person lives, works or their usual mailing address. Most defendants do not want to be served and some will avoid direct contact with anyone they do not know. Substitute service can be very effective in these situations where service of your small claims documents must be completed in a timely matter.

Corporation service is another method of service that we provide. Whether you are serving a corporation directly or through the registered Agent for Service our team of professional registered process servers can provide timely service of all Small Claims documents on the corporation. Although small claims service can be performed by registered mail through the court some companies will not accept registered mail as a standard practice. Using a professional registered process server can insure that your documents are served properly and your hearing date will be on schedule.

Proof of Service is required by the small Claims Court and must be filed with the court within specific timeframes. We provide a Proof of Service that is recognized and accepted by all California Small Claims Courts. Registered process servers have a rebuttable presumption status on their Proof of Service under California law.
