Why Berkeley matters for service of process.
UC Berkeley campus + the Southside / Northside / Berkeley Hills residential pockets. Rent-control tenants generate high UD (eviction) volume. The Albany / Berkeley / Emeryville triangle requires same-day capability for hearing-bound restraining orders.
The playbook.
Same standards as every Servd serve. Local execution.
- Every Servd job in Berkeley is dispatched to a vetted, E&O-insured California-licensed server.
- Servers log every attempt with timestamped GPS and a date-stamped photo, generating CCP §2015.5-compliant declaration text in real time.
- Same-day, rush, and standard pricing in Berkeley is identical to every other city in Alameda County — we don't surcharge for difficult addresses or after-hours attempts.
- After three diligent attempts at different times of day, we move to sub-service under CCP §415.20 with documentation a clerk will accept the first time.
