We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice. Our role is to assist with document delivery and service documentation based on the instructions provided by the requesting party, attorney, court, or authorized representative.

Case-by-Case
North Carolina Service of Process
North Carolina assignments are accepted case by case. Because North Carolina is generally a sheriff-first state for initial service of process, Document Navigators reviews North Carolina requests before accepting them.
We may assist with North Carolina service when private service is permitted, including certain post-sheriff non-service assignments or other situations authorized by law or court procedure.
For North Carolina requests, please include whether the sheriff has already attempted service and whether a return of non-service is available.
