I cannot recommend this process server enough. The individual I needed served has been actively avoiding service, and I’m aware of multiple ongoing cases where others have been trying to locate and serve her for 4+ months without success.
Despite that, my process server got it done in just one week.
That says everything you need to know. Professional, persistent, and clearly very skilled at what they do. They didn’t just make attempts, they followed through and delivered results in a situation where others are still coming up empty.
If you’re dealing with a difficult or evasive serve, this is absolutely who you want handling it.

I cannot say enough good things about Pauline Davis. If you need a process server, do yourself a favor and hire Pauline. Do not risk your case with anyone else.
Before finding Pauline, I unfortunately had a very negative experience with another process server who claimed to have over 40 years of experience. Despite that claim, he failed to properly serve my eviction papers, which nearly cost me thousands of dollars and could have jeopardized my entire case.
In a last minute emergency, I searched on the Thumbtack app and came across Pauline. After reading through her reviews and seeing nothing but positive feedback and exceptional service, I decided to reach out. At 7:00 AM on a Sunday morning, I sent her a message through Thumbtack. To my absolute surprise, she called me within three minutes. I was honestly astonished by how responsive she was, especially that early on a Sunday.
I explained my situation and how the previous process server had mishandled my case. I also told her I needed to obtain a fresh copy of the documents from my attorney and would send them Monday morning. As soon as I sent the paperwork on Monday, Pauline responded immediately and told me she would be there in 19 minutes to serve the tenants.
And she meant it. Nineteen minutes later, the papers were served.
These particular tenants had been extremely difficult and had previously avoided service, but Pauline handled everything with professionalism, urgency, and confidence. She clearly dropped everything to make sure my situation was handled properly and within the required time frame.
Throughout the process she kept me informed every step of the way. She even provided photos and video proof of service, which gave me incredible peace of mind. During this time I was under enormous stress. I had been losing sleep, struggling to eat, and dealing with intense anxiety over this tenant situation. Pauline reassured me the entire time and made me feel like I was not alone in navigating such a difficult process.
What impressed me even more was that she didn’t just perform the service and disappear. She took the time to provide helpful advice and even referred me to additional resources that could help with my situation, information that many people would normally have to pay to receive. She referred me to a charity that helps homeowners that are financially struggling to meet their financial obligation due to tenants not paying.
Pauline is not only highly professional and extremely knowledgeable about this business, but she is also compassionate and genuinely cares about the people she helps. Her dedication, responsiveness, and attention to detail quite literally saved my case. When I say my heart skipped a beat and i started to cry once I found out she was able to serve these tricky tenants. I don’t think she will ever understand exactly how grateful I am. I will continue to use her and refer her to those
I truly believe she was an answer to prayer
during a very stressful time in my life. During a time where I was being taken advantage of because I am a soft spoken woman, Pauline had my back!

From the moment I met Ms Pauline and obtained her services, she demontrated the highest level of professionalism. She was tasked with serving a very difficult individual, yet she approached the challenge with confidence and determination. After providing her with what she requested, she assured me the job would be completed-and she delivered exactly as promised. Her ability to handle such a challenging situation with ease and efficiency truly sets her apart. Ms Pauline is one of a kind, and I highly recommend her services.
