What's included

Everything in the flat rate.

No per-attempt upcharges. No mileage line items inside the standard coverage area.

Court Filing handles the clerk-window leg of getting a document into the court file. We accept the document electronically, run the required formatting checks (page numbering, exhibits, attorney signature block, civil cover sheet where required), and submit either physically through a Servd runner at the counter or electronically through the county's eFile provider. The conformed copy comes back to your dashboard the same business day in nearly every case. This is the right tier when you have a proof of service that needs to land in the case file the day the service is effected, or any other document where the filing leg is non-trivial — multi-volume exhibits, fee waiver requests, documents requiring a presiding judge signature before filing, eFile rejections that need walking through the clerk's window. We track the filing receipt, timestamp, and any rejection reasons so the audit trail is complete. Use Court Filing as an add-on to any service-of-process case so the signed POS is auto-filed when it lands, or as a standalone for documents originating in your firm. eFiling fees charged by the court are passed through at cost.

FAQ

Common questions.

If your situation isn't here, start a chat and we'll answer specifically.

Is Court Filing the same as service of process?

No. Service is the delivery of documents to a party; filing is the deposit of documents with the court clerk. They are sequential steps in the same case workflow.

Do you handle eFiling fees?

Yes — the eFile provider fee is passed through at cost (no markup) on top of the Court Filing fee. If the court charges a separate filing fee for the document type, that is also passed through.

What if the clerk rejects the filing?

You are notified inside the hour with the rejection reason in plain language. We hold the document, run any fixes you authorize, and refile at no additional charge inside the same case.

Can I bundle filing with service of process?

Yes — this is the most common use of Court Filing. Add it to the service-of-process case at booking and the POS auto-files the moment service is effected.
