Serve GEICO in Sacramento — Same-Day Service Available

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is GEICO’s registered agent in California?

GEICO General Insurance Company’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 entity should I name in my service?

GEICO writes policies through several California-licensed companies. Common defendants include GEICO General Insurance Company, GEICO Indemnity Company, Government Employees Insurance Company, and GEICO Casualty Company. Pull the declarations page to find the issuing carrier — that’s the entity to name. CSC accepts service for all GEICO entities in California.

Can I serve GEICO at a local claims office instead?

The most reliable way to serve GEICO is through their registered agent in Sacramento. California law (CCP §415.10 / §416.10) allows service at a corporate headquarters in certain circumstances, but serving at a local claims office or branch may not satisfy the legal requirements for service on the corporation — and risks 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 GEICO?

Every type — bad faith and breach of contract complaints, UM/UIM arbitration demands, deposition subpoenas, SDT subpoenas for claims files, examinations under oath, and PAGA notices. Auto insurance bad faith and UM/UIM disputes are the two highest-volume categories we handle for GEICO service.

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 GEICO 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 95% of cases, registered agent service is the right choice and the cheaper option.
