Served 123 LLC handles end-to-end subpoena domestication throughout Georgia under the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act — O.C.G.A. §§ 24-13-110 through 24-13-117 — including Georgia subpoena form preparation, Superior Court Clerk filing in all 159 counties, and service under O.C.G.A. § 9-11-45. No local Georgia counsel required.
Georgia's § 24-13-112(a) requires filing with the Clerk of Superior Court in the county where the person receiving the subpoena resides. This is a precise statutory distinction — with 159 counties, filing in the wrong county is the most common Georgia UIDDA error. Served 123 LLC verifies the correct county of residence before every filing.
Under O.C.G.A. § 24-13-112(d), Georgia's UIDDA only applies if the foreign jurisdiction that issued the foreign subpoena has also adopted a version of the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act. If your case is pending in a state that has not adopted the UIDDA, the streamlined § 24-13-112 process is not available and different procedures apply. The vast majority of U.S. states have adopted the UIDDA — Served 123 LLC verifies reciprocity on every Georgia order before proceeding.
Georgia adopted the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act (UIDDA), codified at O.C.G.A. §§ 24-13-110 through 24-13-117, adopted May 11, 2012 and effective January 1, 2013. The primary issuance provision is § 24-13-112. With 159 counties — more than any other state in the U.S. — Georgia has the broadest county footprint in the country.
To domesticate a foreign subpoena in Georgia, a party submits the foreign subpoena to the Clerk of the Superior Court in the county where the person receiving the subpoena resides. This is a precise statutory requirement under § 24-13-112(a) — the county is determined by the recipient's county of residence. With 159 counties, identifying the correct Superior Court is a critical first step that Served 123 LLC verifies on every order.
The Georgia subpoena form must incorporate the terms of the foreign subpoena and include the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of all counsel of record and unrepresented parties. The $5.00 filing fee is paid to the Clerk of the Superior Court. Once issued, service must comply with O.C.G.A. § 9-11-45 — Georgia's subpoena service statute — and may be made by a sheriff, a process server, or any non-party who is at least 18 years old.
Served 123 LLC files with the Clerk of the Superior Court and coordinates service in every one of Georgia's 159 counties — from Fulton and DeKalb in metro Atlanta, to Chatham in Savannah, Bibb in Macon, Richmond in Augusta, and Muscogee in Columbus, to every rural county across the state. No matter where your recipient resides in Georgia, we handle it.

We confirm that your originating state has adopted a version of the UIDDA, as required by O.C.G.A. § 24-13-112(d). The vast majority of U.S. states have adopted the UIDDA, but if yours has not, we will advise you on the alternative procedure available in Georgia before proceeding.
We identify the correct Superior Court county based on where the recipient resides — the precise requirement of § 24-13-112(a). With 159 counties in Georgia, this is a critical step.

We prepare the Georgia subpoena form per O.C.G.A. § 24-13-112(b), incorporating the terms used in the foreign subpoena and including the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of all counsel of record and any unrepresented parties.
We file the foreign subpoena and completed Georgia subpoena form with the Clerk of the correct Georgia Superior Court, along with the $5.00 filing fee. Per O.C.G.A. § 24-13-112(a), this filing does not constitute an appearance in Georgia courts. The clerk promptly issues the Georgia subpoena upon receipt of a compliant submission.
We coordinate service of the issued Georgia subpoena in compliance with O.C.G.A. § 9-11-45 and applicable Georgia court rules. Service may be made by a sheriff, a process server, or any non-party who is at least 18 years old. Served 123 LLC covers all 159 Georgia counties statewide.
