Pa.R.C.P. Rule 400 vs. Rule 400.1 — Who May Serve Process
Under Pa.R.C.P. Rule 400.1(a)(1), original process in civil actions commenced in the First Judicial District (Philadelphia County) may be served within Philadelphia OR in any other Pennsylvania county by any competent adult (a private process server). Outside Philadelphia, while initial Common Pleas civil money-damages complaints generally require the County Sheriff under Rule 400(a), private process servers legally serve all domestic relations/divorce/custody actions statewide (Rule 1930.4), all civil and medical records subpoenas statewide (Rule 234.2), all equity/injunction/declaratory judgment actions (Rule 400(b)), all Landlord-Tenant Notices to Quit (68 P.S. § 250.501), all Federal Court actions (FRCP Rule 4(c)(2)), and all out-of-state lawsuits (Rule 404).
Pa.R.C.P. Rule 401 — 30-Day Time Window for Service
Original process in Pennsylvania must be served within 30 days after issuance of the writ or filing of the complaint (90 days outside the Commonwealth under Rule 404). Process Servers Pennsylvania tracks your 30-day window and alerts your firm early to prevent expiration under Lamp v. Heyman and Gussom v. Teagle.
Pa.R.C.P. Rule 402 & Rule 424 — Manner of Personal, Substituted & Corporate Service
Service is completed by handing a copy personally to the defendant, to an adult family member or adult in charge at the defendant's residence, or to the manager, clerk, executive officer, or authorized Commercial Registered Office Provider (Pa.R.C.P. 424 & 15 Pa.C.S. § 109) at a regular place of business.
Pa.R.C.P. Rule 405 — Return & Affidavit of Service
