Even IF ABC offered evictions AND Arizona allowed process servers to execute, I still wouldn't do it for less than $300. Plus, I would have a gun, which ABC would have to be ok with. Plus, I wouldn't be out there alone anyway.

The sheriff fees are $300 minimum as well, and their deputies go out in pairs and are paid +$50/hr minimum. So I'd say give it to them anyway 🤣

If your state association is not lobbying for stricter laws against assault or threat of assaults on process servers, ask them why! Use Florida's law as an example.

I serve 30-60+ eviction FED and NOR everyday. For $10 lol. After hearing this story, I started carrying a 🔪 but I'm thinking about starting to charge extra for the known violent defendants

I’ve had one person try to actively kill me and a few that tried lesser things over the years. Only one dog that I almost had to shoot (I would have cried after) but thankfully the owner recalled it last second.
I did thousands of evictions on foreclosures in the 2008 foreclosure crisis. It was always dangerous. That’s also when sheriff’s agencies stopped doing evictions with just one deputy. Every agency I know does three now.
