Colorado attorneys understand that a reliable, trustworthy process server provides a vital foundation for their cases. Hiring a new process server for every case can waste precious resources and cause unnecessary stress. 

The wrong process server might cause enormous legal challenges and liability risks, delay the progress of a case, or even cause a case to be dismissed. If a process server doesn’t adhere to legal compliance, produces sloppy work, or cuts corners, it could prove extremely costly for the law firm that contracted them. 

However, building a lasting partnership with an experienced and efficient private process server provider can allow lawyers the assurance that their legal document delivery is in good hands so they can focus on finding justice for their clients.  

The right process server in Colorado works with integrity and discretion, adheres to legal compliance, and utilizes technology and innovation to ensure accurate delivery of legal documents. 

Finding a great process server shouldn’t have to be a stressful process. Partner with industry leader Firefly Legal and join satisfied attorneys nationwide today.

Firefly Legal process servers in Colorado

For almost thirty years, Firefly Legal has stood as a nationwide industry leader with a commitment to transparency, integrity, and efficiency in legal services. We’re dedicated to excellence and innovation to bring attorneys the swift, reliable service they deserve. 

We only partner with private process servers in Colorado who are thoroughly vetted and trained, remain in compliance with the state’s laws and rules of civil procedure, and who utilize innovative technology and ethical methods to ensure prompt delivery of legal documents.

Colorado process server laws and regulations

If your law firm has nationwide offices, it’s important to remember that the rules of civil procedure that a process server must comply with can vary greatly from state to state. In some states and jurisdictions, service of process can only be handled by law enforcement officials. In others, court-issued licensing is mandatory for private process servers. 

A process server in Colorado must demonstrate thorough knowledge of the state’s laws and regulations. Firefly Legal will only work with thoroughly vetted and trained private process servers who can work with integrity and follow Colorado laws.

All private process servers in Colorado must be a third party with no ties to the case and over 18 years old. Here are some of the other regulations for process servers in the state.  

Process server regulations in Colorado

There are no legal requirements for anyone over the age of 18 who wishes to become a process server. However, there are questionable professional process servers in Colorado, so research is vital for any law firm looking to form a partnership with a private process server.

These laws are subject to change at any time, so a focus on compliance is a must for any process server. Per Colorado Rule C.r.c.p. 4, most recently amended in 2024, here are some of Colorado’s specific laws and regulations that attorneys should understand before contracting a process server:

  • All summons may be signed and issued by either an attorney or a county court clerk. 
  • Contents of summons should include any details pertaining to the case, including demand of relief (monetary or otherwise), the county of issue, name of the court, name of involved parties (plaintiff and defendant, contact information of plaintiff’s attorney).
  • A private process server can serve a party at their residence or deliver to a family member over the age of 18. 
  • Process servers in Colorado may serve an individual at their workplace, and can also deliver to an individual’s supervisor, administrative assistant, human resources representative, secretary, or bookkeeper. 
  • If attempts at service fail, and service by mail or publication is prohibited, the serving party can file a motion for an order of substitute service.
  • If an intended recipient is identified but refuses to be served, this serves as sufficient proof of service. 
  • The court can amend process and proof of service at its discretion.            

How long does a private process server in Colorado have to serve papers?

A private process server in Colorado can deliver legal documents such as a subpoena or summons for hearing or trial testimony from the date of the case filing until 48 hours before a scheduled court appearance. 

A service of process for discovery testimony must be made within 7 days before required compliance from a named party. Records and documents subpoenas must be delivered within 14 days of mandated compliance. 

Although there aren’t any limitations on the days or time a process server can deliver legal papers in Colorado, most initial attempts are conducted on a weekday and within standard business hours.

Who a process server can serve in Colorado

A private process server who is not with the sheriff’s department can serve the following parties in Colorado:

  • Any party over the age of 18
  • A named party’s family member who is over the age of 18 and shares a residence with the named party 
  • A partner or legal guardian of a named party between the ages of 13-18
  • Associations, cooperatives, corporations, and partnerships
  • Academic institutions and organizations
