Served 123 LLC domesticates and serves out-of-state subpoenas across all 17 Nevada counties under the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act (NRS 53.100–53.200). We prepare the Nevada subpoena, file with the clerk of the district court in the discovery county, and serve under NRCP Rule 45.
Since Nevada's 2019 rules overhaul, a documents subpoena (records, electronically stored information, or an inspection) cannot be served until all other parties have been given 7 days' notice with a copy of the subpoena (NRCP 45(a)(4)). Skip it and the subpoena is exposed to a motion to quash. We build the notice step into every Nevada records subpoena.

To domesticate a subpoena in Nevada, submit your out-of-state subpoena to the clerk of the district court in the county where discovery is sought. Under NRS 53.170 the clerk promptly issues a matching Nevada subpoena — no hearing and, in most cases, no local counsel. The request is not an appearance, and Nevada imposes no reciprocity requirement; the Nevada subpoena need only mirror the foreign subpoena's terms and list all counsel. Records subpoenas also carry a 7-day party-notice step under NRCP Rule 45.
Nevada adopted the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act at NRS 53.100 to 53.200, added to the Nevada Revised Statutes in 2011 (effective October 1, 2011). The Act lets an out-of-state litigant obtain an enforceable Nevada subpoena for depositions, testimony, and records without a motion, a hearing, or (in most cases) local counsel.
Under NRS 53.170, the foreign subpoena is submitted to the clerk of the district court in the county where discovery is sought, and the clerk “shall promptly issue” a matching Nevada subpoena. The request does not constitute an appearance in Nevada's courts. The issued subpoena must incorporate the foreign subpoena's terms and be accompanied by the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of all counsel of record and any unrepresented party.
The subpoena is served and enforced under NRCP Rule 45 (NRS 53.180) — by a sheriff or any non-party 18 or older. For a records subpoena, Rule 45 also requires 7 days' advance notice to all other parties before service. Served 123 LLC manages every step across all 17 counties.
From intake to affidavit — exactly what happens on every Nevada order.
Use the order form above or email info@served123.com. Include the originating state, the Nevada county where discovery is sought, and your subpoena as a PDF. We confirm UIDDA eligibility and the correct county at intake.
We prepare the Nevada subpoena to conform to NRS 53.170, incorporating the foreign subpoena's terms and the contact information for all counsel and unrepresented parties.
We submit the foreign subpoena to the clerk of the district court in the discovery county, who promptly issues the Nevada subpoena. The request is not an appearance, and issuance typically takes 1–3 business days.
Our authorized representative retrieves the issued Nevada subpoena in person from the clerk's office. For a records subpoena, we serve the required 7-day notice and a copy on all other parties before serving the witness (NRCP 45(a)(4)).
We dispatch through our Nevada process-server network under NRCP Rule 45 — by a sheriff or a non-party 18 or older — with up to three diligent attempts per address. The statutory witness fee ($25 per day) and mileage under NRS 50.225 are tendered at service where attendance is commanded.
You receive a signed, court-ready PDF affidavit of service confirming completion in full compliance with Nevada law — ready for filing in your originating case.
Before October 2011, reaching a Nevada witness for an out-of-state case meant a slower court process. NRS 53.100–53.200 replaced it with a single clerk filing.
The NRS 53.100–53.200 framework, plus the rule that governs subpoena service, notice, and objection, and the statute that sets witness fees — the authority we work from on every Nevada order.

A rejected filing or a quash motion can cost weeks and blow your discovery window. These are the Nevada-specific errors we screen out before anything is submitted.
