Four Service Options, Slow to Fast. You Choose When, Not What.

Service of process is the one service with speeds. Each window counts business days from the day your payment is received and runs to the first attempt, not to completion. Every option includes the same attempts, attempt log and signed return.

What Moves the Price. Each One on Its Own Line.

A starting rate is the floor. Your written quote itemizes everything: one line per party and address, and a line for anything else the job needs, before you approve it.

Where the Address Is

A city address is a shorter job than a rural county far from the nearest town. Your quote prices the actual county, not an average.

Service of process, first partyper address

How Many Parties and Addresses

Each party is its own service, and each address is its own round of up to three attempts. Each additional party at an address already on the order is $70, on its own line.

Second party or second addressits own line

How Fast the First Attempt Goes Out

A faster option changes when the first attempt happens and nothing else. The option you choose is named on the quote, and every option includes the same attempts, attempt log and signed return.

An Address That Turns Out to Be Bad

If the person has moved, we can run a skip trace for a current address. It is added only if you ask for it, and a new address is quoted as a new round of service.

More Than Three Attempts

Up to three attempts are included at each address. If the person still has not been served, another round is quoted before it starts.

Fees Set by Someone Else

Subpoena domestication includes the court’s fee. For other services, court fees, copy and certification charges and government authority fees are not ours, and each is listed on its own line before you approve.

Steps the Job Requires

Some jobs need a step beyond the attempts, such as a mailing the state requires after substitute service or printing a large set of papers. Each appears on its own line, only when the job needs it.

Process Server Fees, Asked and Answered. In Plain Terms.

Rates, attempts, bad addresses and third-party fees.

How much does a process server cost?

At Served 123 LLC, service of process starts at $90 per party, per address for Routine service (first attempt in 5–7 business days). Same-Day adds a rush charge from $100. Every option includes up to three attempts, each logged with date and time, and a signed return of service. The county, the number of parties and the speed you choose move the price, and you get a written quote before work begins.

Is the price per person or per address?

Both. Each party is its own service, and each address is its own round of up to three attempts. Each additional party at an address already on the order is $70, on its own line.

What happens if the address is bad?

A skip trace for a current address is $55. A new address it finds is quoted as a new round of service.

What if the person is not served in three attempts?

You receive a signed affidavit of non-service listing each attempt with its date and time. If you want to keep going, an additional round of attempts is quoted before it starts.

Do the faster options change what I get?

No. Routine, Preferred, Next-Day and Same-Day change only when the first attempt goes out. Each window counts business days from the day your payment is received and runs to the first attempt, not to completion, and every option includes the same attempts, attempt log and signed return.

Are court and filing fees included?

Subpoena domestication includes the court’s fee. For other services, fees charged by a court or agency, such as court fees, copy and certification charges and apostille authority fees, are listed on their own lines in the quote, so you see them before you approve it. Other charges that can apply are on our Supplementary Costs page.

How much does subpoena domestication cost?

Subpoena domestication starts at $795 per subpoena, including the court’s fee and service on the witness. The price varies by state and county, because issuing courts charge different fees and a few states require a petition. See the subpoena domestication page.

Is the quote free?

Yes. Every order gets a free written quote with each line priced, and work begins only after you approve it.
