How much does a process server charge?

A process server in San Diego typically charges between $40 and $70 per service act. Why such a big range? Because some jobs are “rush” jobs and others do not have a time pressure to them.
Why not just use the Sheriff, they are cheaper.
You can contract with your local Sheriff’s office for process serving in San Diego at a much cheaper rate however, there is a tradeoff that may not do well in serving your litigation. While a Sheriff’s office will provide process serving, this is not their main focus. In an analysis of a year’s worth of process serving in San Diego by both professional process servers and the Sheriff, the process server was faster and had a greater success rate in serving documents. There is another thing you should be aware of, while the Sheriff’s office is all about the law – they are less about keeping up with the details of civil procedures which determine the hows and whys of process serving in San Diego. A dedicated process server has to stay up on the latest changes in regulations because it is their career. You are less apt to violate regulations by choosing to use a process server in San Diego.
