• Priority — First attempt within 24 hours. See details and availability windows here: Speed of Service. - 2 Does “Priority” guarantee same‑day completion?
- Priority refers to the first attempt timing. Completion depends on access, address quality, party availability, and any court‑ordered service methods. We’ll communicate status as we proceed.

Nationwide Coordination
Out‑of‑State & Nationwide Service
