How can I avoid being served with papers, a debt collection agency want to sue me?
I’m sure you already know what will happen in the event they do find you and serve you, so I won’t waste the space telling you all of that. What you want is advice on how to dodge the process server. First step is to find out exactly what the laws in your state are regarding service. Go to the link below and read up. With a few exceptions, it goes like this (Depending on the state). To the person who said they don’t have to serve you in order to sue, you are wrong. No court will even begin to listen to a case unless there has been a “deligent” search to locate the party. They can have either a court officer, or any “uninterested” adult serve you personally. To dodge them, just be carefull answering the door. But a good process server will eventually locate you on the street or at your place of employment. You don’t need to be actually handed the summons. If they are within reach of you they can simply drop it at your feet and that constitutes a legal service. Failing a personal service
