How coverage works in Georgia

A request for Georgia goes through the same intake as Tennessee work. DFS confirms the county, service level and price in writing, assigns the serve to a vetted server who meets the issuing court’s requirements for that document, and supervises the file from Nashville.

Rates differ by county, from $125 to $260 for Routine service, because population and distance from the nearest major metro area change the cost of reaching an address. The documentation does not change: body camera, GPS-stamped attempt log, field notes and a signed proof of service on every serve.

Coverage questions

Does DFS serve papers in every Georgia county?

Yes. DFS accepts process serving requests for all 159 Georgia counties. Each one has a published starting rate on the Georgia pricing map, and the price for your address is confirmed in writing before the first attempt.

Does DFS have an office in each city?

No. DFS does not advertise local offices in Georgia. Each serve is assigned to a vetted server and supervised from Nashville under one chain of command, with the same body-camera and GPS documentation on every file.

What can DFS do in Georgia besides serving papers?

Nothing else at this time. In Georgia, DFS provides process serving only. Courier, filing, mobile notary and investigative services are offered in Tennessee.

Can one request cover recipients in several states?

Yes. DFS serves in Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia and Kentucky, so a matter with recipients in more than one of those states can go through one intake, with a separate return for each serve.

Papers to serve in Georgia?

Send the documents and the recipient’s last known address through the request form. DFS confirms the county, service level and price in writing before the first attempt.
