For Fontana Landlords and Property Managers

We serve landlord notices and filed unlawful detainer papers as you direct, then return a signed proof of service. Send the completed notice, or the filed Summons and Complaint, along with tenant names, the full unit address, and any gate codes or access notes. We don't advise on which notice to use or how to fill it out, so for that, check with an attorney or the California Courts Self-Help Guide.

How It Works

1. Tell us about the serve. Use the request form or call (909) 547-7434 with the papers, the Fontana address, residence or business, and your deadline.
2. Pay the flat price. $90 standard, $130 rush or $200 same-day.
3. Pay through your private link. Your Current Customer page shows your price, payment options and job status. You can pay with PayPal, Zelle, Cash App or Venmo — a quick, safe and easy way to check out. After you pay, tap "I've sent payment" and our office confirms it.
4. We make the attempts at different times and days as needed, with notes on each attempt.
5. Get your proof, either a signed proof of service with photo or video documentation, or a report of attempts. You or your attorney then file the proof with the court unless we've agreed otherwise.
