The work
What a court runner does for us

- Embassy and consulate document runs, which are mostly in Washington, DC
- Marking each run complete in the portal and uploading fee receipts
Before you apply

- Current auto insurance (no vehicle registration upload is needed for runners)
- 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

Maine court runner questions
Will I ever have to serve someone?
No. Court runners only file, pull records and carry documents. Serving is a separate role with its own requirements.
Do I need a vehicle registration in Maine?
No. Registration is asked of process servers; runners send a license, insurance and a background check.
How many runs will I get in Maine?
We can't say. Runs are offered only as clients ask for them, with no guaranteed number.
