Serving papers in Arkansas
Process server rules in Arkansas
Process server rules vary by state, and sometimes by county or city. Some places license or register process servers, some require a court appointment, and some have no separate requirement. You must meet Arkansas's rules for any papers you serve, and we ask about it when you apply. Arkansas's court rules and official court website are the place to confirm what applies. We can't give legal advice.
One example from the official pages: in small claims cases (Small claims division of the district court), service is described like this: “Usually by certified mail, by the sheriff, or by another authorized person. The plaintiff pays for service.” Rules for other case types differ.
