Arizona Acceptance of Service is a legal process that is used to serve legal documents such as summons, complaints, motions, orders, notices, and subpoenas. It is a way for a court to formally notify an individual or entity about a lawsuit or legal action. The person or entity served must accept the service to ensure that the legal action can proceed. There are two types of Arizona Acceptance of Service: personal service and substituted service. Personal service is when a process server personally delivers the documents to the individual or entity being served. Substituted service is when the documents are delivered to a person of suitable age and discretion at the residence or place of business of the individual or entity being served. The documents must then be mailed to the individual or entity. Both types of service must be accepted by the individual or entity, and the acceptance must be documented in order for the legal action to proceed.
