Hire a Process Server in Nevada

Yes, if you engage in the business of serving process. Nevada requires licensing under NRS Chapter 648. Licensed servers must be at least 21 years old, have 2 years of experience, pass a written exam, clear a fingerprint background check, and carry $200,000 in liability insurance. Persons serving process three or fewer times per year without compensation may qualify for an exemption under NRS 648.063(2).

Routine process service in Nevada typically costs between $65 and $150. Las Vegas and Reno area servers are common in this range. Remote Nevada locations (e.g., rural counties) can cost significantly more due to travel. Request bids from multiple verified servers on the Mighty Process Server platform.

Under NRCP 4(e), service must be completed within 120 days after filing the complaint. If service is not completed within this period, the court may dismiss the action or grant an extension upon a showing of good cause.

No. Nevada requires process servers engaged in the business of serving process to be licensed under NRS Chapter 648. The license number must appear on all proofs of service under NRS 14.025. Only persons meeting the exemption criteria (serving 3 or fewer times per year without compensation) may serve without a license.

If personal service cannot be completed, Nevada allows substitute service at the defendant's dwelling with a suitable person under NRCP 4.2(a)(2). If the defendant cannot be located after due diligence, the court may authorize service by publication under NRCP 4.4(c).
