Process Serving in Sacramento County
Sacramento County is the busiest jurisdiction in the region, and the types of documents we serve here reflect that. We handle service of summons and complaints, subpoenas, subpoenas duces tecum, restraining orders, eviction notices (unlawful detainers), family law papers including divorce petitions and custody modifications, small claims filings, writs, and other civil process.
California law requires that most legal documents be personally served on the named individual or an authorized agent. In some cases — after documented failed attempts — the court may authorize substitute service or service by posting. We understand the rules and follow them precisely so your service holds up when it matters. If a document needs to be filed with the court after service, we handle that too. Sacramento County has specific filing procedures depending on the court division, and we make sure everything goes where it needs to go.

How long does process serving take in Sacramento County? It depends on the service tier you select. Standard service is completed within 10 business days, expedited within 3 business days, and rush service within 24 hours. Most standard services are completed well before the 10-day window.
What if the person I need served is avoiding service? We make multiple attempts at different times and days. If personal service isn’t possible after documented attempts, we can discuss alternative methods authorized under California law, including substitute service or service by posting with court approval.
Do you file documents at Sacramento County Superior Court? Yes. We offer court filing as a $30 add-on. We’ll file your documents at the correct Sacramento County courthouse — whether that’s the main courthouse on 9th Street, Carol Miller Justice Center, or the Ridgeway Family Relations Courthouse.
Can I serve someone myself in Sacramento County? California law allows any person who is at least 18 years old and not a party to the case to serve legal documents. However, using a registered process server ensures proper service and provides professional proof of service documentation that courts accept without question.
What information do I need to provide to get started? At minimum, we need the documents to be served and the name of the person being served. A known address, physical description, workplace, or other identifying details help us locate and serve the individual faster.
