Analogously to the Post Office, we have 3 basic classes of service, defined as:

Standard Service: First attempt within 4 days. This is also known as non-rush. It means that we can attempt the serve on a standard, non-rush basis along with our other serves, and schedule attempts as we see fit.

2 Day Rush: First attempt within 2 Days. This means we can still serve it along with other serves, but moves it ahead of them in priority and moves the first attempt up.

Same Day Rush: First attempt today. This means we have to drop everything and attempt service today, moving all lower priority serves out of the way for it. If we have no other serves to attempt today, we still attempt this class. ( This does not include surveillance time - waiting around for extended time periods and watching for someone, to serve them. ) This is also the category that appointment serves fall into. If we have to be some place on a particular day at a particular time ( an appointment ) then it becomes Same Day Rush, even if it's scheduled in advance.

The following are per the usual industry standards: Fees are per defendant, per set of documents and per address attempted. None of these fees include surveillance or multiple attempts per day. Fees are for making diligent attempts.

"Skip Trace Attempt" listed below, is for predominantly a database skip trace, which doesn't involve on-the-ground or extensive investigations, which costs much more.

Our policy is that we require prepayment of our fees.

Also, please note:

* Restraining Orders which involve alleged violence or threats of violence: We urge you to do these on a "Same Day Rush" basis ( Same Day Rush fees apply.) If it's serious enough for someone to swear out a restraining order from the court for such allegations, service should be attempted the same day. And please provide us a photo.

* Please include any and all information about the party being served, up front, so we may get your service done in the quickest and most efficient manner, right from the start. It's also very important to let us know if there's a hard deadline date for your service.

* There is an additional printing fee for printing over about 25 pages, of $3 per 25 pages above that number. If your documents are more than about 25 pages, you may wish to send them by regular mail, express mail, Fedex or UPS overnight if it's a rush.

* To expedite service please send documents without a mail or Fedex delivery signature requirement.

A Little History
In a Nutshell

Denver Panorama

Most people here in the United States know little about process serving and its history. People often dread being served, but there’s an important historical aspect to process serving that many people aren’t even aware of. Service of process can be thought of as a noble and honorable profession.

We won’t go into volumes here, but in past times and places, people didn’t even have a right to know if they were involved in matters concerning the court system. You can see how that would impact people’s lives. Legal actions could be decided without a person’s knowledge until the local law enforcement showed up to confiscate their property, eject them from their home, or even haul them off to debtor’s prison.

Sometimes people neither understand or appreciate exactly what rights our Constitution recognizes for us.

We have the right to “due process of the law”.

“Amendment V.

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.”

And then again:

“Amendment XIV.

1 All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

So historically the process server is the one who informs people of their constitutional rights to due process of the law by “serving” them with notice that there’s an important legal that involves them.

In essence we serve people with their constitutional rights to due process of the law, something that’s extremely important.

Process servers also play an important role in helping people collect on their debts, get the child support that’s due to them so they can support their children, and are involved in so many other vital roles in a civil society.

We believe it is truly a noble and righteous profession.

The people who are aware of this fact, will quite often thank the process server instead of being abusive to her or him.

Colorado Process Servers welcomes any verifiable historical additions that you’d like to send us for inclusion in this section of our site. We’d especially be interested in some photos or historical information on the very first process servers in Colorado.
