Frequently Asked Questions

Who can serve legal papers in New Jersey?

In New Jersey, process service must be completed by someone who is at least 18 years old and not a party to the case. Professional process servers like Fredericks & Palmer are trained in New Jersey Rules of Court to ensure service is completed correctly. Invalid service can cost you standing in your case.

How long does process serving take in New Jersey?

Standard service is typically completed within 3 to 5 business days depending on location and recipient availability. Same-day and rush service is available for urgent matters. Call us directly at 609-233-6743 to discuss your deadline.

What happens if the recipient refuses to be served in New Jersey?

Refusing to accept papers does not void service in New Jersey. A process server who makes proper personal contact can complete service even if the recipient refuses to take the documents. We document every attempt thoroughly so your affidavit of service is defensible.

Do you serve papers anywhere in New Jersey?

Yes. We cover all 21 New Jersey counties including Atlantic City, Camden, Cherry Hill, Trenton, Newark and everywhere in between. For recipients who have relocated out of state, we coordinate service nationwide through our network.

What is proof of service in New Jersey?

After completing service, we provide a signed affidavit of service documenting the date, time, location and method of delivery. The affidavit is court-ready and compliant with New Jersey court requirements.
