Services And Fees

Klickitat Process Service provides professional, reliable process serving throughout Klickitat County and surrounding areas. Because our service area includes an abundance of rural roads, varied terrain, and remote locations, pricing is based on time required rather than distance alone.

Our goal is to provide fair, predictable billing that reflects the actual work involved in completing service.

Multiple Document & Entity Fees

Additional affidavit fees are uncommon and apply only when the number of documents served is sufficiently extensive to require separate affidavits.

*In addition to Routine Service Fee
