⚖️ Know the Law: Who Can Serve Process in Illinois?
Not everyone is legally authorized to serve legal documents in Illinois.
Under Illinois law (735 ILCS 5), service of process may be completed by:
✔️ A licensed private investigator
✔️ A registered employee (PERC) under a licensed agency
✔️ The Sheriff’s Office
✔️ A court-appointed individual (case-by-case)
⚠️ If your process server cannot verify proper licensing, your service may be challenged—causing delays and added legal costs.
At Uthe Investigations, we are fully licensed and operate in strict compliance with Illinois statutes, ensuring your service is valid the first time.
