Becoming a process server

[Anonymous]

I am a SAHM who is looking for a way to make some extra money now that my husband's work hrs have been cut. Has anyone known anyone who has become a process server?

Can't help you with that, but where do you live? I heard people can make extra money in Mont. Co. helping with the census (from home I believe).

Isn't process serving sometimes dangerous? Some of these people don't want to be served. Some of them are angry about the case and take it out on the server. Do you really want to be a part of that?

Sort of like being a repo person? I also think you sometimes might have to serve process in places with a lot of crime.

I've known several process servers, many who worked with bail bondsmen. They were all pretty shady, but that was about 15 years ago or so. Maybe it's changed?

Many courts allow for the Sheriff to serve as one of the methods of doing so. Maybe that is for convenience or in some cases, it could be dangerous.
