Court Messenger
Court messenger services for law firms, businesses & individuals
Some filings can’t wait, and some courts still want paper. Our court messengers run to Stanley Mosk, Spring Street and every Los Angeles Superior Court branch to file documents, pick up conformed copies and deliver courtesy copies to the judge’s department.
We handle the line, the counter and the paperwork so your staff can stay at the office, and we scan copies to you as soon as the clerk stamps them.

What is a court messenger?
A court messenger is a courier who specializes in courthouse work: filing documents at the clerk’s counter, obtaining conformed copies, retrieving case files and delivering papers to courtrooms and chambers.
Every courthouse has its own procedures, cut-off times and department locations. An experienced messenger knows where to go and what the clerk will ask for, which helps your filing get accepted the first time.
