Los Angeles wage garnishment service

JPL Process Service LLC handles wage garnishment assignments in Los Angeles County and every county throughout California. First, we coordinate the sheriff file setup, serve your prepared documents, and complete the service paperwork with the sheriff’s office.

How the service works

1. Email your request. First, tell us whether you need bank levy or wage garnishment service and provide the service address.
2. Prepare your documents. Next, use the checklist below. For example, if the court provided an original writ with a wet-ink signature, we need that original document.
3. Open the sheriff file. Then, we set up the assignment with the sheriff’s office serving the service address.
4. Serve the documents. After the file is open, we serve the employer or designated entity.
5. Complete service with the sheriff. Finally, we close out the service paperwork with the sheriff’s office. The sheriff then acts as the enforcement officer and handles the garnishment from that point forward.

Common ordering questions

Do you offer rush service?

This service is offered on a standard timeline only. For that reason, email us about the assignment and document requirements before placing an order.

Who handles enforcement after service?

After service, the sheriff is the enforcement officer. Once we complete service and the associated sheriff paperwork, the sheriff handles enforcement of the bank levy or wage garnishment.

Does $225 include sheriff’s fees?

No. The service charge covers one entity at one address. However, applicable sheriff’s office fees are additional.
