Serve Google in Sacramento — Same-Day Service Available

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is Google’s registered agent in California?

Google LLC’s California registered agent is CSC (Corporation Service Company), located at 2710 Gateway Oaks Drive, Suite 150N, Sacramento, CA 95833. We serve CSC routinely — see our CSC registered agent page for full details. (Always verify the current agent on file at the California Secretary of State business search before serving — agents can change.)

Which Google entity should I name — Google LLC or Alphabet Inc.?

For the vast majority of California lawsuits involving Google products, services, employment, privacy, or business operations, the correct entity is Google LLC. For shareholder derivative actions, corporate governance matters, or cases specifically targeting the parent company, the correct entity is Alphabet Inc. (Google LLC’s public parent). Both entities use CSC as their California registered agent at the same Sacramento address, so we can serve either one for $85 flat. Always verify the exact entity name on your court documents.

Can I serve Google at a local office or location instead?

The most reliable way to serve Google is through their registered agent in Sacramento. California law (CCP §415.10 / §416.10) allows service on a corporation only at specific designated persons or locations, and attempting service at a retail store, branch office, or local facility may not satisfy the legal requirements — risking defective service that gets thrown out. Using the registered agent avoids that risk entirely. The cost is the same either way ($85 flat for registered agent service).

How fast can you serve CSC?

Same-day in most cases. The CSC office at 2710 Gateway Oaks is open standard business hours, and we can typically pick up your documents and serve them within a few hours of receiving them. Rush jobs are no problem.

What types of legal documents do you serve on Google?

Every type — subpoenas for user account records and search/email history (SDT is the largest category), summons and complaints, privacy and CCPA class actions, antitrust discovery, wage-and-hour and PAGA complaints, employment discrimination and wrongful termination cases, IP and patent subpoenas, and defamation/content-moderation complaints. Subpoenas for Google account records are the highest-volume category we handle.

What is the price difference between registered agent service and direct service?

Registered agent service is a flat $85 — that’s the recommended approach for almost all registered agent service. Direct service (when appropriate) is process serving and uses our tiered pricing: Standard $99 (5 days), Expedited $150 (3 days), Rush $175 (24 hours). For the vast majority of cases, registered agent service is the right choice and the cheaper option.
