First attempt: within 7 days
Standard Process Service Statewide
The budget-friendly tier: first attempt within 7 days, completion typically in under 15 business days.
Chapter 01
When a slow serve quietly costs you the hearing
Cases stall in the same ordinary way. A court calendar gets built on the assumption that the papers already reached someone, and nobody circles back to confirm the address until the first attempt comes back unserved. By then, the clock that matters is the court's, not yours.
The address on file might be a year old, the person named might work nights, or the process might simply be sitting in a queue behind everything else a busy office is handling. None of that shows up until you're already asking for more time.

How Standard Process Service Statewide actually runs
The request goes in online, no office visit required, and the first attempt happens within 7 days of submission. If that first attempt doesn't land, follow-up attempts are made at different times of day rather than repeating the same failed window over and over.
Every attempt is logged and visible in real time, so you or your firm can see when it happened and what came of it without calling to ask. Most Standard tier serves in and around Weaverville, North Carolina, finish inside 15 business days from the start of the request.
Chapter 03
What you're holding when the file closes
A free notarized affidavit of service comes with every completed serve, ready to file with the court. The rate for the tier is flat and confirmed before we start, with no hidden mileage, tax or transaction fees added afterward.
If your hearing date is close enough that the 7-day window feels tight, the 2-Day Rush tier moves the first attempt up and repeats every 2 days after that. Either way, call (828) 380-7650 and the on-duty Process Master will help you pick the tier that actually fits your deadline.
