How to Work With a Process Serving Company

How independent process servers work with a process serving company: expectations, notes, communication, and applying to PPS Serve.

Independent process servers often work through a company that already has the client relationship, the documents, and the proof requirements. That can be steady work if you treat it like a professional assignment, not a side hustle with no notes. PPS Serve reviews applications. We do not promise a set number of jobs, and we do not put every applicant in the field. What a company is actually hiring you to do You are being asked to: - Attempt service at the authorized address - Write notes another person can use - Take photos when they help and are appropriate - Communicate when something blocks the job - Return a clean record, whether the serve is completed or not You are not being asked to argue the case, give the recipient legal advice, or decide strategy for the client. Assignment basics When PPS Serve has work that fits your area and availability, the assignment is confirmed in writing. That confirmation is the source for address, documents, special instructions, and pay. Do not start a job on a verbal “maybe.” If the written assignment is missing a page or an address, ask before you drive. Pay is confirmed in writing for each assignment. PPS Serve does not promise volume. What good partners do without being asked - Read the packet before leaving - Attempt at reasonable hours for that address type - Write notes the same day - Send photos with the notes, not as a separate mystery file - Say so immediately when a gate, dog, or wrong address stops the job See what good process serving attempt notes include and the field professionalism guide. How to apply If you want to work with PPS Serve, apply as a process server. That path uses the careers application. We review each application. Approval is not automatic, and portal access is not automatic. Existing field agents si
