The Process Server (TPS) How Fast Can ProcessServer.io Complete a Process Serve?

In the legal world, time is everything.

Court deadlines, fast-moving cases, and evasive defendants demand speed, precision, and proof.

ProcessServer.io delivers legal documents quickly and legally, ensuring you meet crucial deadlines without delays.

So, how fast can we serve your documents?

Let’s break it down.

1. Same-Day & Rush Service (Completed Within Hours)

ProcessServer.io provides process serving in every U.S. state, ensuring full compliance with state-specific laws.

  • Major Cities & Metros – We cover every major city and metropolitan area, ensuring fast and efficient service.
  • Rural & Hard-to-Reach Areas – Even if a defendant is hiding out in a remote town, our network of process servers will track them down.
  • State-Specific Compliance – Every state has unique process serving laws—we follow them all to ensure service is legally valid and challenge-proof.

Example:

A client in Los Angeles needs a defendant served in rural Montana.

ProcessServer.io dispatches a local certified server, ensuring compliance with Montana’s process serving laws.

The defendant is served without delay—no extra hassle for the client.

From coast to coast, we get it done.

2. Standard Service (Completed in 3-5 Days)

For routine cases, most serves are completed within 3-5 business days.

  • Multiple Service Attempts – We don’t just knock once—we make repeated attempts at different times and locations.
  • Flexible Timing – If the recipient isn’t home during the day, we serve them in the early morning, evening, or on weekends.
  • Guaranteed Court-Recognized Service – Every serve follows state laws and court requirements to ensure validity.

Example:

A landlord in Phoenix needs an eviction notice served.

ProcessServer.io completes the serve within 48 hours and immediately provides proof of service.

Even with standard service, we move faster than most.

3. Hard-to-Serve & Evasive Defendants (Varies by Case, Typically 5-10 Days)

Some defendants try to dodge service—but they can’t dodge ProcessServer.io.

  • Skip Tracing & Address Verification – If someone moved or is actively avoiding service, we use databases, social media tracking, and surveillance to locate them.
  • Stakeouts & Surveillance – When needed, we conduct on-site monitoring to confirm their whereabouts and serve them.
  • Decoy Service Tactics – If necessary, we use strategic approaches to ensure delivery without tipping them off.

Example:

A debtor refuses to answer the door and moves frequently.

ProcessServer.io tracks their location using workplace records and serves them during their lunch break at a café.

If someone is avoiding service, we don’t stop until they’re served.

4. Alternative Service (10-14 Days, Court Approval Required)

When traditional service fails, ProcessServer.io gets court approval for alternative methods.

  • Substituted Service – If a recipient refuses personal service, we request permission to leave documents with a co-resident or coworker.
  • Service by Mail or Publication – If a defendant can’t be located, we handle court-approved service via certified mail or newspaper publication.
  • Legal Motion Filing – We prepare and file motions requesting alternative service when needed.

Example:

A business owner goes off the grid to avoid a lawsuit.

ProcessServer.io requests and receives court approval to serve them via certified mail and legal publication.

Even when defendants try to disappear, ProcessServer.io ensures legal service.

5. Nationwide & International Service (Varies by Location, Typically 3-14 Days)

ProcessServer.io serves legal documents across all 50 states and internationally.

  • Nationwide Process Serving – Whether it’s New York, Texas, California, or a remote town, we have process servers everywhere.
  • International Process Serving – We handle Hague Convention service, private process service, and embassy filings.
  • Cross-State Coordination – Need a serve in multiple states? We coordinate everything for you.

Example:

A law firm in Chicago needs a lawsuit served on a defendant in Mexico.

ProcessServer.io handles international service compliance and ensures the defendant is served legally under Hague rules.

Wherever you need documents served, we make it happen.

Excellent work. Right to the point with instructions what to send them and what their procedure was. Had my papers served right after the holiday weekend and a copy of the declaration was emailed to me and one was mailed led to the court. No surprises. I’d recommend them to others. Oh! Before I forget, what I like the most was that they answered the phone both times I called. This is rare nowadays.

The Process Server was outstanding. They responded quickly to our request, including making sure our documents were served the next morning. Their customer service was excellent and really compassionate about our situation. They quickly uploaded proof that the documents were served to AZPoint. I would definitely use them again! Thank you!

Justin is the office staff member that did the coordination and John is the staff member that performed the actual document serving.Both super great individuals. Both professional. Both communicated extremely well. I received a follow up phone call from Justin (after the serve) to ensure I filed my paperwork with the court (given that this was a rush serve situation). I also received a confirmation call from John after the serve was completed, informing me how the serve was received.I would definitely use them again! You have to be careful what process servers you use. These guys are really good and professional. —Todd

Tried using a different process server prior to them to save some cash, but the other company struggled every step of the way from the very beginning. Decided to reach out to this company and they handled everything very smoothly and were able to get my person served quick. Communicated along the way, answered all of my questions and overall made me feel much more at ease over the whole situation. Will be using them more in the future and have already recommended them to anyone who needs a process server
