Local knowledge. Central accountability.

A plan that fits California.

California requests should include the county, exact apartment or business suite, and the recipient's legal identity. Los Angeles, Bay Area and inland routes are not interchangeable local assignments.

Local requirements & service planning

California Courts' service guidance distinguishes who can serve, the permitted method and the proof required. Company or individual status and the issuing court's directions must be checked before an attempt.
