Why You Need A Process Server
When it comes to serving legal documents in Dallas, Fort Worth, or anywhere you need court documents served, how and when they’re delivered can directly affect the outcome of your case. While law enforcement officers like constables or sheriff’s deputies are legally permitted to serve documents, process service is rarely their top priority. That often leads to delays and limited availability. At Court Serve by Pinnacle, our certified process servers focus solely on your case—offering fast, flexible, and dependable service, including same-day or next-day delivery when needed.
Unlike deputies who typically attempt service during standard business hours, our team works around the clock—mornings, evenings, weekends, and even holidays. We understand that evasive individuals don’t follow a schedule, so we adjust our tactics to fit each situation. You’ll also receive real-time updates, direct communication, and the peace of mind that comes with knowing your case is being handled with urgency and care.
Hard-to-Find Doesn’t Mean Impossible to Serve
No one is too hard to find — and no serve is out of reach. Subjects may avoid contact, provide false information, or go into hiding. That’s where our private investigators with Pinnacle Private Investigations based out of Dallas Fort Worth sets us apart. Our licensed investigators are skilled in locating hard-to-find individuals and navigating sensitive situations and serve them on the first sighting. We don’t just attempt service—we complete it with precision and professionalism. Whether you need service in Dallas, Fort Worth or anywhere outside of DFW, trust us to get your service done right.

I emailed the summons to Brice and the paperwork was served to the Defendant the following day. Brice provided me with a copy of the Return of Service confirmation the same day it was served. I highly recommend the services provided by Pinnacle.
I immediately sent him pictures of old addresses that were no longer valid, but then I didn’t hear from him for the entire week. When I followed up, instead of a clear update, he claimed that his emails had been placed on a spam list, so he wasn’t sure which of his messages actually went through. Regardless, he had my personal phone number and could have called or texted me at any time but, chose not to.
This kind of excuse-making, lack of communication, and failure to take responsibility wasted valuable time. If he was having trouble serving at the Dallas address he claimed to have found, I should have been informed immediately so we could move forward with the return of service.
Hi Marionna,We’re very sorry to hear about your frustration and the inconvenience this process caused. Serving papers to an elusive individual can often take longer than expected, and we understand that you would have preferred more frequent updates. That is on us, and we take responsibility for the miscommunication.According to our notes, Brice waived the immediate and priority fee, made three attempts at two different addresses in the same day, ran a complimentary address search (a $195 service), and made an additional attempt at the Dallas location (which unfortunately turned out to be an outdated 2024 address). He also spent four hours conducting surveillance at the address you provided at no charge, and later offered a free alternative service option once court approval was obtained.Our priority is always to achieve personal service rather than filing non-service prematurely, and our intention was never to delay your case. That said, we understand your perspective and sincerely apologize for the lack of clarity along the way.Even with the completed work, we will be issuing a full refund and closing the case. Thank you for bringing this to our attention—we’ll use this as an opportunity to improve communication moving forward.— Court Serve by Pinnacle
Within a few hours of my initial call, they reached out. This company offers the skill and creativity needed of a licensed private investigator and a process server in one package. This is not your average process serving company—they get the job done.
What I liked most was how they kept at it, took charge, and found a way to get the job done. I trusted them to understand the nuances of serving this “avoider,” and they successfully got him served in less than 12 hours! Case closed!
If I lived in Texas, they would be my go to for all process serving – simple serves and complicated ones. If you’re looking for a server that will go the extra mile and won’t stop until the job is complete, this is who you want on your side. They are outstanding at what they do, and I cannot recommend them enough.
