Served 123 LLC handles end-to-end subpoena domestication throughout Arkansas under the UIDDA — Ark. Code Ann. §§ 16-43-1101 through 16-43-1107 — filing with the clerk of the circuit court in the county where the witness resides, is employed, or regularly transacts business, across all 75 Arkansas counties. Our Arkansas practice is built around the NWA corporate corridor — home to Walmart, Tyson Foods, and J.B. Hunt — plus Little Rock, Fort Smith, Jonesboro, and the Delta.
Northwest Arkansas — Benton County (Bentonville) and Washington County (Fayetteville/Springdale) — is headquarters to Walmart, Tyson Foods, and J.B. Hunt, plus a dense supplier and logistics ecosystem. NWA generates a disproportionate share of nationwide corporate and commercial litigation discovery targeting Arkansas. Same-day rush available on both counties.
Under Ark. R. Civ. P. 45(b)(1) and Ark. Code Ann. § 16-43-802, service of an Arkansas subpoena commanding personal attendance must be accompanied by tender of the statutory witness fee and mileage. This is not optional and not a formality — Arkansas courts have treated failure to tender as grounds to void service and deny any subsequent motion to compel. The witness fee covers a statutory daily attendance amount plus per-mile travel from the witness's residence to the place of testimony, tendered in legal tender at the time of service. This rule applies specifically to deposition attendance subpoenas. Served 123 LLC calculates the statutory tender, prepares it in proper form, and our field server delivers it at service on every Arkansas attendance subpoena.
Arkansas operates the eFlex electronic filing system, accessible through arcourts.gov, which is used statewide for civil filings in most Arkansas circuit courts. UIDDA submissions are typically filed through eFlex, removing the need for in-person clerk visits and allowing next-business-day issuance in most counties. Filing fees are confirmed at intake and advanced as part of every order. Paper filing remains available where eFlex is not supported for a specific filing type or county. Served 123 LLC is set up to file via eFlex as the default path on every Arkansas order.
Arkansas has adopted the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act at Ark. Code Ann. §§ 16-43-1101 through 16-43-1107. Under § 16-43-1103, a party submits a foreign subpoena to the clerk of the circuit court in the county where the witness resides, is employed, or regularly transacts business. The circuit clerk is mandated to promptly issue an Arkansas subpoena upon receipt. Filing does not constitute an appearance in Arkansas courts, and no court order or judge's signature is required.
Arkansas circuit courts are the state's general-jurisdiction trial courts, organized into 28 judicial circuits covering all 75 counties. The proper venue for UIDDA filing is the county where the witness lives, works, or regularly transacts business (for depositions) or where the documents or premises are located (for document production and inspection). Choosing the wrong county causes a return-for-venue and restarts the clock — Served 123 LLC confirms proper venue at intake.
Once issued, the Arkansas subpoena is governed by Ark. R. Civ. P. 45 for form, service, and enforcement, and by Ark. Code Ann. § 16-43-802 for witness fees and mileage. Statutory witness fees and mileage are tendered at the time of service per Rule 45(b)(1) — a commonly missed requirement that can void service entirely if skipped. Served 123 LLC prepares witness fee tenders as part of every Arkansas attendance service.
