Hebron is a Licking County village with its own police department, 7.8 miles from the courthouse in Newark, and a process server there can deliver summonses, subpoenas, eviction notices and other court papers ordered at the order form. On offer are Standard Service at $185 with a first attempt within 5 business days, Rush Service at $225 with one within 48 hours, and 24-Hour Service at $265 with one aimed within 24 hours. Once papers are delivered, a signed proof of service is emailed to you.
What a Process Server Costs in Hebron
Hebron's closest neighbor in the data is Buckeye Lake, 2.0 miles off, but neither is among the six areas the rates page names for 24-hour work. The $265 tier is therefore a request: a first attempt within 24 hours is not promised and depends on submission time and server availability. The $185 and $225 tiers have firm windows. A repeat after a failed delivery costs $25. See rates.
Licking County Sheriff, Bailiff or Private Server?
In Licking County the first summons usually comes from the clerk by certified mail. A written request from the plaintiff for hand or residence service reroutes the job to the sheriff, a municipal bailiff or a court-designated server.
Who May Serve Papers in Licking County: Clerk Mail, Sheriff, Bailiff or Court-Designated Server
Mail is first under Civ.R. 4.1 and everything else needs a written request. For Hebron plaintiffs that means the clerk mails, and only afterward may the sheriff, a municipal bailiff or a court-designated individual serve, the last of whom has 28 days to finish or return the papers with reasons. See sheriff versus private server.
