FAQ
Ordinarily, a civil sheriff's deputy will serve this notice upon any party located in Louisiana. For the sheriff to make service, the sheriff will need to physically locate the person (personal service) or deliver the papers to the person's home address (domiciliary service).
After five days, if the sheriff has not served the Louisiana Process Service, a party may request that any person over the age of majority, who is not involved in the case, be appointed to serve Louisiana Process Service on their behalf, as long as the person does so within the state of residence.
The party making the motion to appoint process server is responsible for arranging the service through the private process server. This involves sending the private process server the citation and certified copy of the petition that needs to be served. Licensed process servers may have their own affidavit of service.
Standard service ? $100 (per address) This price includes 3 attempts at service, the first attempt being made within 3-5 days, along with a notarized affidavit.
Your spouse can be served personally by a professional process server or the sheriff, who will locate your spouse and hand over the divorce petition and summons physically.
