Why Choose a Private Investigator for Process Serving?

Hiring a private investigator for process serving adds a layer of tactical advantage and legal reliability that traditional servers simply can't offer. Here's what sets Bonnington PI apart:

1. We Locate Hard-to-Find Individuals

People avoid being served for many reasons—and some actively hide. Our licensed investigators use advanced skip-tracing tools, public records, and surveillance to locate recipients quickly and discreetly, even if they’ve changed addresses or are avoiding detection.

2. We Avoid Confrontation

Legal service can trigger emotional responses, especially in family law or civil dispute cases. We conduct all interactions with professionalism and discretion, minimizing tension and ensuring the service proceeds calmly.

3. We Guarantee Legal Accuracy

Improper or incomplete service can delay or derail an entire case. Our process servers are trained in California’s Code of Civil Procedure, ensuring every serve is:

  • Compliant with state laws
  • Documented thoroughly
  • Completed in a legally recognized manner

4. We Act as a Neutral Third Party

Objectivity is critical in sensitive cases like divorce, child custody, or restraining orders. As licensed professionals, we operate as an impartial legal third party—ensuring the service remains ethical, professional, and defensible in court.

5. We Deliver Fast, Reliable Results

Legal deadlines matter. Whether you're facing a trial date, hearing, or motion deadline, we provide speedy turnaround and can accommodate:

  • Same-day and rush service
  • Weekend or after-hours service
  • Repeat attempts at different locations or times

6. We Provide Detailed Documentation & Evidence

Every service includes:

  • Time- and date-stamped logs
  • Optional photographic evidence
  • Proof of service (POS) affidavits
  • Notes on interaction or service attempts

This level of documentation protects you—and your case—in court.

7. We Offer Surveillance Support for Evasive Subjects

If someone is actively avoiding being served, we can deploy surveillance strategies to monitor their routine, identify optimal timing, and legally complete the service.

As private investigators, we can also confirm residency at multiple or disputed addresses, using field observation, interviews, and lawful tracking techniques.
