Court runner jobs in Alaska
This is courthouse and records work in Alaska: filings, conformed copies, records pulls and document runs, with no process serving at all.

The work
The court runner job, day to day
- Over-the-counter filings at the clerk's window, with the stamped copy scanned back the same day when the office allows
- Pulling court files, deeds and other public records, and scanning them
- Embassy and consulate legalization runs where the request calls for them (most are in Washington, DC)
- Logging each run in the portal and uploading receipts for court or copy fees
Before you apply
What we require
- Age 18+ and a current driver's license
- Proof of auto insurance (registration is asked of process servers only)
- A background screening dated within 12 months, or, for an established business, a waiver request with a review link that the owner decides on
- A smartphone for job offers, photos and uploads
- You don't serve papers in this role, so no server license or commission is needed

How many runs will I get in Alaska?
That depends on demand near you; no volume is promised.
