Southland Process Server

They filed sloppy paper work so each of my 2 serves were deemed defective and I was force into new court dates. I got my third court date and they never returned any of my messages and now I’m on my fourth court and I am forced to hire and pay a completely different server.

I would not recommend using Southland Process Server unless you are willing to make numerous phone calls and send numerous emails. They do not return voice mails and you have to keep calling and hope to get someone on the phone in order to followup on the status of your process serve. I left six voice mails and sent three emails before I was lucky enough to get someone on the phone. It took them 13 days to serve my defendant who was finally served on the last possible day, AFTER I called that morning to remind them it was the last day in order to make my court date. It then took another six days for them to file the paperwork, AGAIN on the last day possible in order to make the five day prior court deadline, and AGAIN after I called several times that morning to get someone on the phone and remind them it was the last day. Definitely took more work on my part than it should have when hiring a professional process server.

Well, at least this process server hasn’t sold my credit card number to others. They ultimately got the job done… two weeks later than I had hoped. And for some reason, they didn’t know how to fill out their own forms correctly, they didn’t know how to mail the forms back to me in a timely matter, and I had to call and email them so much to inquire, I felt as if I was a process server myself!
I think I’m going to start using the Sheriff’s office to serve people from now on, because I’ve had such bad luck with these so called «professional servers.»
