South Carolina Service of Process Procedures

In South Carolina, we understand how difficult it can be dealing with the courts, especially the complexity of the Magistrate court jurisdiction. There are specifics that matter in SC. For example, it’s important that process servers properly identify the person being served. Additionally, while the state typically allows Sunday service, in many cases parties cannot be served while going to or from a regularly or specially scheduled religious service on Sunday.

 Please note, this is when we start attempts. There are legal requirements around to whom and how legal documents are delivered. It may take several attempts for the delivery to occur or for us to determine that the address is not servable.

How do you deal with someone avoiding service in South Carolina?

While some people are evading service of process in South Carolina, in many cases they just aren't quite where you expect them to be, when you try to reach them. We're here to help you handle either situation. Process servers in South Carolina will make multiple attempts with South Carolina's diligence and service requirements in mind.

Every service attempt will work towards meeting those requirements. In doing so, we will go to the house multiple times to try and reach the person to be served while they are in residence. Our process servers are tasked with providing data indicating that a person may reside at the address, which we refer to as "residency indicators".

This information can come in handy when trying to prove diligence after non-service in court or to get alternative service approved as available in a given state.

For legal professionals, we can provide additional assistance regarding the next best address to try with a free, auto trace. This service isn't available to everyone due to legal restrictions across the country.

Who serves my documents in South Carolina?

At ABC Legal we get your documents out to service with one of the process servers in our nationwide network. Process servers are unbiased agents qualified to serve documents in accordance with local laws. Regulations around the age, licensing, and appointment requirements for process servers vary from state to state. In South Carolina, service of process must be performed by the sheriff, his deputy, or any other person over the age of 18 who is neither an attorney nor a party involved with the action.

We confirm that process servers meet South Carolina requirements (in South Carolina, for example, process servers must confirm the identity of the person to whom they hand the documents) and our standards for excellent service on an ongoing basis through automatic reviews, performance audits, and service validations.
