Process Serving
Process serving involves an assortment of various tasks that involve legal paperwork. This could be filing papers at the courthouse, serving legal documents to people and retrieving documents from courthouse records. Not all Process Serving requires a notary but if it does than we can provide a notary for you. If the task involves a notary, the process server must then provide proof to the person or company that wanted the papers served. This proof usually comes in the form of an “affidavit of service,” which gets notarized and delivered to the person who hired the process server to perform the task. There are specific laws that must be followed when serving legal papers to someone, which is why you need to hire professionals who understand these laws and can work with you in making sure it gets done properly.
Here at CISS Investigations, we can perform process serving services for you all throughout the United States. Even though we are licensed in California as private investigators, we have contacts all around the country that are experienced process servers and can deliver your legal documents to whomever you need them delivered to. We will make sure they are delivered on time and then we will provide you with notarized proof of the delivery afterwards.
If you need a rush service that requires same day delivery then we can do that as well. It is better to have professional process servers handle the delivery of your documents because of how much faster it is. Most counties in the country will use deputies to deliver these kinds of documents if a professional process server is not used. If you end up using this method of process serving then your documents may very likely be delivered late because the deputies are often too busy dealing with real crime to worry about fulfilling their process serving tasks. That is why it is better to go the professional route and pay to have it delivered faster. Otherwise, it could affect the outcome of your legal case if the other party says they weren’t informed in time.
There are many different types of legal documents that we can arrange to have served to people. The most common documents including:
- Summons
- Subpoenas

These are areas typically pertaining to civil cases involving medical malpractice, personal injury, family, commercial, appeals, litigation, immigration, real estate, product liability and more cases. Our process serving services don’t only involve civil cases though. CISS Investigations will also provide these process serving for criminal cases as well.
