Why North Texas Process Servers
Built for attorneys, paralegals, and pro se filers
You don't need a process server who disappears after the first attempt. You need one who documents everything, tells you when something changes, and gets the affidavit back before your hearing.
Same-day dispatch
Documents received before 1pm on a business day are typically assigned to a server that afternoon.
Flat, quoted pricing
You approve the price before we serve. No surprise mileage, no per-attempt upcharges on standard jobs.
Confidential handling
Case documents and defendant information stay private and are never shared outside your job.
A human answers
Call or email and you reach someone who can actually look up your job and tell you where it stands.
Flat-rate pricing

Common questions
Straight answers before you send anything
Still unclear on something? Call us at (817) 618-6235 — we answer questions even when you're not ready to hire us.
- How fast can you serve someone in DFW?
- Routine service is typically completed within 3–5 business days. Rush jobs are dispatched the same day when documents reach us before 1pm, and many are served within hours depending on where the defendant is.
- What do you need from me to get started?
- The document to be served (PDF is fine), the defendant's name and last known address, your case number if you have one, and who should receive the affidavit. That's it — no account or contract required.
- What happens if the defendant can't be found?
- We document every attempt with time stamps and GPS coordinates, then contact you with options — additional attempts at a different time of day, a skip trace, or a substituted-service or alternative-service filing through the court.
- Do you serve outside Tarrant, Dallas, Denton, Johnson and Parker Counties?
- Yes. Those five are our daily coverage area, but we regularly arrange service throughout Texas through vetted partner servers while keeping you as our single point of contact.
- Is your affidavit accepted by Texas courts?
- Every affidavit is prepared in the form required by the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure and notarized by our server. If a court requires a specific return format, tell us and we'll match it.
- How am I billed?
- You get a flat quote up front and approve it before we serve. There's no retainer and no account setup — you're invoiced when the job is complete, and you only pay for what you approved.
