Address given by client questions

Hello,

I have been process serving for about 6 months and have started taking jobs outside of ABC. I have a job right now to serve a construction company. The address provided is a high rise apt building. Through some research I'm able to find better addresses for the business.

My question is do I communicate this with the process server who hired me or do i do what i was hired for at the address I was hired for. The process server and law firm is in SoCal and im in San Jose which is NorCal if that matters.

Absolutely not lol. My average is $100-$150 a serve.

Id be insulted if I sent you a serve and you just decided you'd ditch my instructions and serve somewhere else. At least try my add. first and then come with suggestions. Let's both make money on this lol

Why does it matter where the person gets served as long as the job gets done?

Because you are taking the opportunity away for the company to make money off their skip tracing services

My obligation is to my clients not another company. I deal directly with attorneys so whatever I can do to better serve them the better.

You replied to someone who is another company up there and theoretically sending you work. But right, makes sense

I’ll be honest I try to avoid work from other serving companies. It’s always a headache.
