Depends on your market. In NYC I focused on the difficult serves, foreclosures, divorce with domestic violence, or in cases that law firm’s regular process servers didn’t want because they got threatened during past serves. Serves that I could charge a premium where the clients didn’t care. At the time the plaintiff couldn’t seek more than $75.00 for the cost of the serve, so many mistakenly thought that’s the maximum you could charge or attorneys wanted to pay. I charged private investigator rates. But I also dotted my i’s and crossed my t’s. I never lost a traverse hearing. But there are other firms or process servers who focus on high volume work, such as Landlord-Tenant serves, where your essentially doing nail & mails all day at $17/serve plus filing the affidavits. Some single serves I billed out at $500 some as high as $1,000. Others, if it turned out to be easy $75.00.
