Technically, you can make service difficult. Practically, you cannot avoid it forever — and attempting to can make your legal situation significantly worse.
After multiple failed personal attempts, the process server can leave documents with a person of suitable age at your home or work — plus mail a copy. You're legally served even without accepting it.
After documented diligent effort, Arizona courts grant motions for alternative service — email, social media, or newspaper publication. Avoidance accelerates this.
If you're served by publication and don't respond, the court enters a default judgment against you. Evasion doesn't stop the case — it removes your ability to defend it.
Judges notice when defendants have clearly evaded service. It affects credibility and judicial sympathy throughout the proceedings.
