Pay
How pay works
Each job shows its pay up front, in dollars, before you commit. Take it, pass, or make a counter-offer; passing never counts against you.
Jobs are offered one at a time, as clients ask, to contractors whose travel radius covers the address, whether near Billings, Missoula and Great Falls or a smaller town in Montana. We don't guarantee any number of jobs.
This is 1099 independent contractor work.
Serving in Montana
What Montana says about service
In small claims cases (Small Claims Court (Justice Court small claims; small claims divisions of district court also exist by statute)), the official pages describe service like this: “Court form lists 'Service of Order'; counterclaims must be served on the plaintiff by sheriff or process server. Check the local justice court for details.” Other kinds of cases follow different service rules.
Whether Montana or your county licenses, registers or appoints process servers is for you to check and meet before taking a serve; the application asks.
