For law firms

# The runner your firm doesn't have to hire

eCourts handles most filings now. What's left is the legwork that still needs a person: the Surrogate, the county clerk, files that aren't online, papers to serve, and a signer who needs a notary today. Send it to us and get one invoice a month.

## What we handle

- **Surrogate and county clerk:** probate papers walked in, short certificates picked up, deeds and mortgages recorded or copied, certified where you need it
- **Files that aren't on eCourts:** older and archived court files, judgments and dockets pulled and scanned
- **Process serving:** summons, complaints and subpoenas served by a competent adult with no interest in the case, with an affidavit of service
- **Paper the court still wants:** courtesy copies delivered where a judge requires them, and filings for self-represented clients you're assisting
- **Notary and witnesses:** at your office, the client's home or a hospital, or online by video

## How billing works

Each job gets its own tracking page with the proof attached: the stamped copy, the recorded document, the affidavit of service. Court, recording and copy fees are passed through at cost. Your firm gets one invoice a month listing every job and matter, so it drops straight into client billing. Set prices where we have them; a written quote where we don't.

All 21 New Jersey counties. [Courthouses and filing details by county](/notary/court-filing/new-jersey-courthouses) · [Process serving](/notary/process-serving) · [Records retrieval](/notary/records-retrieval)

## Questions

**Do you give legal advice or prepare pleadings?**

No. We're not a law firm. We file, serve, record, retrieve and notarize documents your office prepares.

**Can you file on eCourts for us?**

No. Attorneys file on eCourts themselves. We handle what still needs a person: the Surrogate, the county clerk, records that aren't online, service and courtesy copies.

**How fast is service?**

We attempt service on the schedule you set, report each attempt, and send the affidavit of service when it's done.

**How do you bill?**

One monthly invoice per firm, itemized by job and matter, with court and recording fees passed through at cost.
