When was Lawyers Civil Process founded?
LCP was founded in 1979 as the first private process
firm in Dallas and the second in Texas. Although
others claim to be the first in Dallas, make no mistake,
Lawyers Civil Process was in fact the first in the
metro-plex.

What kind of turnaround time can I
expect for services provided?
Service is normally attempted within 48 hours of
receiving the papers. If the party is not at the
location of service then additional attempts are made
within 24 hours unless otherwise requested by the
attorney. Rush service is also available for an
additional charge.
^ Top ^
How many attempts are generally made?
You are guaranteed that multiple attempts will be
made unless information is obtained that the party is no
longer at that location. Additional charges apply
for a new address and skip tracing. We do NOT,
however, charge extra for multiple attempts. After
substantial attempts are made without progress, we can
get a rule 106 order signed by the judge to permit
substitute service. We require permission by the
attorney to apply for a rule 106 order.

What happens if you cannot serve the
party?
Lawyers Civil Process usually serves the party on
all possible papers. We will not turn down a
difficult serve. If service is impossible, we can
get a rule 106 order signed by the judge to allow
substitute service. We require attorney approval
to get such order signed. This allows us to serve
anyone in the household over 16, by posting it on the
door or a secure location where the party is sure to
find their papers. Additionally, we will provide a
typed and notarized affidavit of attempts for you to
prepare the Motion and Order granting alternative
service.
^ Top ^
What is rush service?
Rush service is specially requested by an attorney
or paralegal for immediate attention. After
receiving the documents, we will have a process server
ready to make an immediate attempt. Your paper
will be served within 24 hours or when you specify.
There is an additional fee to obtain such service.

Are your Texas process servers
certified?
Our
current network of Texas Process Servers all have a
standing order and are certified to serve process issued
out of any court in Texas; including Harris County.

Do you front witness fees?
YES! We front witness fees as long as you have an
account opened up with Lawyers Civil Process. To
open account, simply call and give us your information.
Account setups are FREE!

Do you front courthouse filing fees?
YES! We courthouse filing fees as long as you have
an account opened up with Lawyers Civil Process.
To open account, simply call and give us your
information. Account setups are FREE! Due to
the recent filing fee increases in the local courts, we
have added a minimal $5.00 fee to front filing fees.
With the simple filing of a new divorce costing nearly
$300.00, we find that it is fair to charge minimally for
giving credit. However, we do waive this fee for
long time and quick paying clients.

ID number?

If you look in the upper right hand corner, you will see
our tax ID number for you tax purposes. Also, if
you call us, we can give you our tax ID number over the
phone.

Why should I outsource work normally
done by in-house paralegals?
LCP
carries extensive professional liability / errors and
omissions insurance to cover all services provided by
LCP and its affiliates. After 25 years of
business, our experience and ensures superior work
in the fastest possible time frame. We are always
open to coordinating service with clients by our
knowledgeable employees.
^ Top ^
Why should I use LCP instead of the
local Constable officers?
The
sheriff or constable department does offer process
serving, however, many sheriff or constable departments
are backlogged and do not offer extra care, diligence
and dedication to completing more difficult serves. They
do not offer rush service and special coordination
requests. Lawyers Civil Process takes pride in
serving papers quickly and using its in house skip
tracing team to track individuals avoiding service or
individuals who have moved. You can even ask for
same day, rush
service. We also mail out affidavits of service
the same day our returns are in the office.
^ Top ^
Why should I use LCP for document
retrieval?
We
offer fast, dependable document retrieval from the
courthouses within the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex as
quickly as possible and in the same day for most cases.
Our trained staff knows how to retrieve all of the
documents relevant to your case in a timely matter.
