What you'll do

## What a process server does for us

- Delivering legal papers to the person named, in person
- Logging every attempt in the portal with date, time, GPS location and photos
- Returning a signed proof of service in the form Maine courts accept
- Optional court runs and records pulls alongside serves

Before you apply

## What we require

- At least 18, with no stake in the cases you serve
- Upload your driver's license, registration and auto insurance with the application
- A background check under 12 months old (or, for an established business, a waiver the owner may grant; never automatic)
- Any license, registration or court appointment Maine or your county requires to serve papers, uploaded if it applies
- A smartphone for attempt photos, GPS stamps and offers

Pay

## What and how you're paid

The pay is on the offer itself. Take it, pass, or make a counter-offer; there are no minimums and no penalty for saying no.

Work is per job: each request near your home ZIP in Maine is offered as it comes in, around Portland, Lewiston and Bangor or anywhere else inside the radius you choose. There is no guaranteed volume.

This is 1099 independent contractor work.

Serving in Maine

## Before you serve papers in Maine

In small claims cases (Small claims, District Court), the official pages describe service like this: “Serve the defendant first; once service is confirmed, file the Statement of Claim and fee with the clerk within 20 days.” Other case types have their own rules.

Rules on who may serve, and whether a license or registration is needed, vary by state and sometimes by county or city. You must meet Maine's rules for every serve you take, and the application asks about it.

Apply

Fill in the form below and attach your license, registration, insurance and background check, and a server license if your area needs one. When every date checks out, approval can be automatic.

Once approved you get an email to sign the independent contractor agreement and upload your W-9 in the portal; after that, offers reach you by email or by text if you turn texts on.

## Maine process server questions

**Do I need a license to serve papers in Maine?**

That is set by Maine and sometimes the county. If one is required, upload it with the application; if you're not sure, say so and a person reviews it.

**Will I get regular serves in Maine?**

It depends on demand near you. There is no guaranteed volume.

**Am I an employee?**

No. You are an independent contractor who chooses every job and can counter any offer.
