Can you serve a respondent at their workplace?

Yes. If residential attempts are unsuccessful, we can attempt service at a known employment address under CPLR 308. We discuss all available options with you before a service is deemed complete.

What proof of service do I receive?

A notarized affidavit of service prepared by the process server, formatted for submission to New York Family Court. We email a PDF on completion and can mail the original.

Are child support documents served differently from other papers?

The rules of service are the same as other civil process under CPLR. What differs is the sensitivity of the situation. We handle these matters discreetly and without unnecessary contact with neighbors or third parties.
