Process Servers in New York should be prepared to serve a variety of legal documents including a summons, complaint, subpoena, court orders and even assist in a civil standby or "stake out" when appropriate.

  • Process servers are essential to New York's legal system, ensuring legal documents are served in compliance with New York Civil Practice Law and Rules (CPLR). Proper service is critical to due process, as improper service can result in case delays, dismissals, or unenforceable judgments. New York imposes unique requirements, including detailed affidavits of service and strict timelines, especially in high-population areas like New York City, where process servers must also be licensed. Their role ensures fairness and the integrity of legal proceedings.


  • Contact the County directly if you have any questions regarding specific fees, registrations, bonds etc.
