FAQ
Service by publication means putting a notice in a newspaper. It is used when you cannot find the other person and don't know their address. You need the court's permission to do this. Before the court agrees, you have to show that you tried to find the other person.
Adherence to Court Rules: The number of attempts made to serve documents aligns with the rules established by the respective court. Range of Attempts: Typically, the number of attempts falls between 4 and 6. However, the emphasis is on the quality, strategy, and lawfulness of each attempt rather than just the count.

It generally tells the court that you have tried to serve the Defendant, but you believe that he or she is evading service or he cannot be found. Next, in your motion, you must ask the court for the alternative option or other legal means of service.
You can start by searching for their address using public records, social media, property records, or checking with people they know. If you cannot serve them by personal service, try alternative methods such as substituted service, service by mail, or by publication in a newspaper.
