Process service in Orange County
Orange County is one of the busiest litigation markets in California. Corporate headquarters in Irvine, retail and hospitality around Anaheim, and coastal communities from Huntington Beach to Newport Beach generate a steady flow of business disputes, employment cases, landlord-tenant matters and family law filings.
Because Orange County borders Los Angeles County, many of our clients have cases that cross the county line — a defendant in Anaheim, a witness in Long Beach, a filing in Santa Ana. We handle both sides with one team.
We serve papers anywhere in Orange County, including Anaheim, Santa Ana, Irvine, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach and Fullerton. Every assignment is completed by a California registered process server, with GPS-stamped attempts and a signed proof of service you can file.

If you are a party to the case, no. California requires that papers be served by an adult (18 or older) who is not a party to the action (Code of Civil Procedure § 414.10). Most people hire a registered process server so the service is documented and the proof of service is accurate.
What is proof of service, and do you file it with the Orange County court?
After service, the process server completes and signs a proof of service under penalty of perjury describing when, where and how the papers were delivered. We email you the signed proof and can eFile it with the Orange County Superior Court on request, where eFiling is available.
