Local Fort Lauderdale process servers who know Broward County

Fort Lauderdale cases move through the Broward County Courthouse (17th Judicial Circuit) on SE 6th Street, and our servers are in and out of that complex, and the surrounding neighborhoods, every week. Because we're local to Fort Lauderdale, we already know the fastest routes from downtown and Las Olas out to Plantation, Sunrise, Coral Springs, Pompano Beach, Hollywood and Weston, so your documents get to the right address quickly instead of sitting in a queue.

We serve the full range of Broward County matters: civil summons and complaints, subpoenas for depositions and hearings, eviction and landlord tenant papers, family law filings, small claims and post judgment documents. Every attempt is GPS verified and time stamped, and each completed serve is documented with a court compliant return of service that stands up under Florida Statutes Chapter 48 and satisfies the 17th Judicial Circuit clerk.

When an address turns out to be bad or a defendant is dodging service, we don't burn days on repeat attempts, we escalate straight to skip tracing to find a current Broward County address. And while Fort Lauderdale is home base, First Serve offers Florida wide service through our curated professional network, so multi county matters stay with one team from Central Florida to South Florida.
