As the recession drags on, more consumers and companies are falling behind on payments for credit cards, loans and other financial obligations. And past-due bills mean more work for process servers, the couriers who deliver court documents to notify defendants of the legal proceedings against them. "We're really recession-proof," said Eric Vennes, president and CEO of Seattle-based NW Legal Support Inc., one of the larger process servers in the Puget Sound region.

Excerpt:
On average, the cost of a routine service can range anywhere from $35 – $100. Prices can be lower in some states and higher in others. As the serve becomes more difficult or costly for the process server, you can expect to pay more. You may incur additional mileage fees or skip tracing fees if you need the person located. Additionally, if you have a rush serve or you need papers served the next day or on a holiday you can expect to pay more.
