San Jose is the largest city in the Bay Area, and Santa Clara County around it is dense with corporate campuses, registered agents and residential neighborhoods that stretch from Milpitas to Gilroy. StrikeServe assigns San Jose orders to California registered process servers who work the South Bay, so a serve in Almaden Valley and a serve at a Sunnyvale office park are both handled by someone already in the area.
You place the order online, upload the documents and choose a speed. Each attempt is logged with GPS coordinates and a timestamp, and when service is complete you receive a proof of service formatted to the California Rules of Court and signed under penalty of perjury, ready to file with the Santa Clara County Superior Court.
Three flat tiers, the same price anywhere in Santa Clara County. Every tier includes up to three attempts, GPS-timestamped attempt records and a court-formatted proof of service.
First attempt within 5–7 business days. The standard tier for most summons, subpoenas and family-law papers when the case calendar allows a normal window.
First attempt within 2–3 business days. For deadlines that are close but not today: hearing notices, deposition subpoenas, motion papers with a short fuse.
Order by noon; first attempt the same day. For emergencies. Place the order by noon and a server makes the first attempt that day.
Create the order at strikeserve.com, upload the papers to be served, and enter the San Jose service address and any notes about the person, the building or the best times to try.
Routine, Rush or Same-Day. The price is flat for the tier and includes up to three attempts. Same-Day orders must be placed by noon.
A California registered process server is dispatched. Each attempt appears on your timeline with GPS coordinates, a timestamp and the server's notes.
When service is complete you receive a proof of service formatted to the California Rules of Court and signed under penalty of perjury. If service fails, you receive a Declaration of Non-Service.
A large share of San Jose serves involve technology companies: subpoenas for records, summons on employers, and papers for individuals who spend their day on a badge-access campus in Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, Mountain View or Cupertino. Serving a corporation usually means delivering to its registered agent or an officer during business hours, which our servers handle routinely. Serving the individual often means an evening attempt at home in Willow Glen, Evergreen or Berryessa, and the included attempts are scheduled to cover both. Santa Clara County also has a substantial number of accessory units and shared households, so servers confirm identity before handing over papers rather than relying on the address alone.
Civil cases for Santa Clara County are heard by the Santa Clara County Superior Court. Its Downtown Superior Court at 191 N First Street in downtown San Jose handles civil, probate and small claims matters. When your San Jose serve is complete, the proof of service we deliver is formatted to the California Rules of Court and ready to file there.
