01 / Primary service

Process service

Reliable legal process service for summonses, complaints, subpoenas, writs, eviction notices, restraining orders, and related court papers delivered to individuals or corporate registered agents.

We review the assignment, identify the permitted service path, and document the result through an affidavit of service or affidavit of non-service, as appropriate.

Before you begin

Provide the documents to be served, relevant case information, and any court-issued instructions.
Share all available recipient details, service locations, and known schedules or contact information.
Confirm any jurisdictional, court, timing, or substitute-service requirements that may apply.

Private investigations

Discreet investigative support for locating defendants or witnesses, documenting activity, and producing clear records for legal and case-related matters.

Provide available subject details, relevant case information, and the purpose of the requested investigation.
Confirm any jurisdictional, legal, or timing requirements that may affect the assignment.

03 / Notary

Remote online notarization

Illinois recognizes traditional in-person, remote, and electronic notarization formats. The right format depends on your document, signature requirements, and intended use.

Before scheduling, confirm the format accepted by the receiving party. We review your document and identification requirements, then guide you through the appropriate notarial process.

Before you begin

Traditional in-person notarization uses a paper document, physical ink signature, and rubber stamp in a face-to-face meeting.
Remote notarization uses a paper document, physical ink signature, and rubber stamp with live two-way audio and video communication.
Electronic notarization (RON) uses a digital document, electronic signature, digital seal, and an approved identity-verification platform.
