Serving court documents may seem simple, but California imposes clear rules to ensure that defendants receive notice and that service is valid. Under Business & Professions Code § 22350, anyone who makes more than ten services of process per year for pay must register as a process server with the county clerk. Registration means you carry a bond and identification, which reassures courts and recipients that the service is legitimate. Understanding these requirements is crucial so that your filings are accepted and your cases can proceed without delay.
