[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Attorney's Name] [Attorney's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Request for Bill Associated with Summons by Publication Dear [Attorney's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to request a detailed bill for the expenses related to the Summons by Publication process in the State of South Dakota. As you are aware, the Summons by Publication is a legal process used when an individual cannot be served with a summons in person. Instead, the summons is published in a designated newspaper within the county where the legal action is being pursued. Given the unique circumstances requiring this alternative method of service, I believe it is essential to have a clear understanding of the associated costs. In order to properly assess and understand the charges incurred, I kindly request a detailed itemized bill outlining all expenses related to the Summons by Publication. This should include but is not limited to: 1. Newspaper Publication Costs: Please provide a breakdown of fees associated with publishing the summons, such as advertising rates, frequency of publication, and any additional charges incurred. 2. Legal Services: Please specify the legal services provided during the process, including researching and preparing the necessary documents, consultation fees, and any other applicable charges. If multiple attorneys or paralegals were involved, please itemize their time individually. 3. Court Filing Fees: Kindly indicate any court filing fees that were paid during the Summons by Publication process. 4. Miscellaneous Expenses: If there were any other miscellaneous expenses incurred, such as postage, courier services, or administrative costs, please provide details for each expense. I would appreciate receiving the itemized bill within [reasonable timeframe] to ensure a prompt resolution of this matter. If there are any supporting documents or receipts that would provide further clarity, please include them with the bill. Furthermore, if there are any alternative methods of service that could have been explored before resorting to the Summons by Publication process, kindly provide an explanation and any relevant costs associated with those methods. This will help me assess the necessity and validity of the expenses incurred. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at [your phone number] or [your email address]. I look forward to receiving your response and resolving this matter amicably. Sincerely, [Your Name]
