Notary Near Me Summerville, SC

Process Serving in Summerville, SC

I serve process across Summerville, Ladson and Goose Creek. Every job includes a logged record of attempts and an affidavit of service notarized by an independent notary.

Available 24/7.

A process server hands legal documents to a person at a front door, calm and unhurried.

How many times does a process server try to serve you?

It depends on the server and on the person being served. I make attempts at different times of day and on different days of the week, and I log each one with the date, time and address. If service cannot be completed, you receive the attempt log and a clear explanation of why.

South Carolina Rule of Civil Procedure 4(c) allows any person who is at least eighteen years old and not a party to the case to serve process. South Carolina has no license or registration for private process servers. If the court has ordered that a document be served by the sheriff or a constable, that order comes first, and I will not take the job.

I serve summonses and complaints, subpoenas, motions, discovery, family court documents and small-claims paperwork.

I offer three speeds, and all three describe how quickly the first attempt is made, not when the person is finally served. Routine service is the standard timing for a first attempt at a local address. Rush service moves your job to the front of the line. Same-day service makes the first attempt today, for the filing deadline you learned about this morning.

Every completed service includes a signed affidavit of service. Because I cannot notarize my own affidavit, a second, independent notary signs it every time. That affidavit is the document your filing depends on.

South Carolina Rule of Civil Procedure 4(c) permits any non-party eighteen or older to serve process, and South Carolina has no license for private process servers. I am not a law firm, and I do not give legal advice about how service should be made in your case. I serve the papers, and I document what happened.
