Fantastic experience: Absolutely phenomenal service! I needed assistance with court filing and process service for a small claims case, and my expectations were exceeded. Josh filed the case promptly and successfully served the defendant on the very same day I reached out. His professionalism, efficiency, and dedication were remarkable, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I strongly recommend Clearview Investigative Services to anyone in need of reliable court runner assistance and outstanding process serving!

Positive experience: Josh is a good guy and tried but no luck finding the defendant. He still gets 3 stars for returning paperwork & regarding his efforts though.

Titanic The Greatest Ice Bucket Challenge 11 months ago

Dan Dean 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I am an attorney, and I highly recommend Josh. He was great to work with. He served the defendant in my case quickly, and filed the proof of service with the court. His rates are very reasonable.

Isaiah Green 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve never left a review before but I have used Josh twice, and each time, I have been more than pleased. Josh goes above and beyond and it’s clear that he wants to help. You won’t know if he’s doing you a favor or if he’s just THAT committed to providing the stellar service that he advertised. But it will be money well spent. I had a skip trace done immediately. He found my “co-parent” almost immediately. She was served the very next day despite trying to avoid it. And he even will file the Proof of service with a detailed declaration to where it’s almost undeniable. Don’t use your cousins or friends. Spend the money and hire Josh and you won’t be disappointed. Josh is a true professional and I wish him nothing but the best because I couldn’t find my daughter for 8 months and he did it in hours if not minutes

Noemie Facchini 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I rarely leave reviews, but since the experience was so positive, I thought I’d leave one. This is all pretty new to me, and Josh made the whole process smooth and easy. Hoping to not need this service again, but if I do, I will definitely be coming back here.

Fantastic experience: Josh was the best person for the job. IF you want to get someone that is evading service he is your guy. After paying ABC legal money to serve my wife 8 times. Josh did in his first attempt. He was very quick with the process. And he knows his way around settle. I would recommend 10/10. THE ONLY PERSON THAT WAS ABLE TO GET DOCUMENT IN HAND And meet the court’s requirement. Also provide a picture as well.

Fantastic experience: I had been searching for my Father for the last five years. I reached out to Josh a little to no information. Within a week he had found only my father, but one of my brothers. He’s truly done something priceless for me.

Sam Louie 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've never had to get a protection order before and Josh was quick, efficient, and confident in handling a difficult person in my life. In a matter of hours, he not only delivered the notice but was able to give me a summary of how the person received the order. I love his "take no prisoners" approach to doing the hard work necessary to get a protection order in place.

Fantastic experience: Perfectly Done! Josh was able to not only quickly serve the document but take a picture with a time stamp and GPS coordinates! I'm framing the "bug eyed" surprised look to hang on my office wall! LOL!

Abdoulaye 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: The guy Josh is honest and he does a great job. I hired them to serve my papers, but unfortunately, the defendant had skipped the town. Josh helped me track down the defendant in the blink of eyes. It doesn't get any better than that.

Negative experience: I gave Clearview a call to consult me about my case was not very helpful and acted like he couldn't understand no good

Jonathan Ide-Don 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Josh at Clearview was very helpful in serving a notice for me. Quick response via text, quick to serve the notice, and clear with his email communication during the whole process. I appreciate his time and effort in making a somewhat stressful situation go relatively smoothly. Highly recommend.

James Steveson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: This was my first time using a process server and it was a great experience. Joshua was easy to work with and followed through on what he promised. He worked with me to handle everything remotely so I did not have to make any extra trips. I would highly recommend this company.

Nick Kuthy 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: This service was fantastic! I had a defendant that was doing his best to be evasive and hard to find. When located, he was further away making it more diffucult to serve him, but Clearview got him served in time! Anyone going through the stress of the process knows how many varibles there are and Clearveiw made a stressful process a significantly less stressful one. It's often the difficulty of these things that makes people not even want to try and hold people accountable and file in the first place, but thanks to Clearview I feel people in the area have the resources to hold eachother accountable and that is very important to me. I hope to never need the service again, but if I do, I won't need to look elsewhere because I know they wil do it and do it proffesionally. ~N.K.

Fantastic experience: My first time working with a process server service and so happy I chose Clearview! Josh and his team not only got the job done, but went above and beyond to make sure all legal steps were taken and included proper documentation. They helped me confirm the correct address to which we were serving, and returned to serve until successful. In addition, Josh also supplied me with legal documentation regarding the successful service process, and helped me file it with the courts correctly. I also appreciate Josh’s prompt communication via email and text! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I had a rush assignment and needed documents in an archived bankruptcy case quickly. Josh was responsive, professional and went above and beyond- calling from the courthouse and meticulously going over the docket so as not to miss anything. As a nationwide provider, I have utilized countless litigation support providers/court runners. Clearview Is one of the best. Highly recommend. Thanks again for the great work!

Fantastic experience: I found this company through Google. Josh far exceeded my expectations. I had him run a skip trace and do personal service for a federal subpoena. He served the subpoena in a timely manner and notified me promptly when the subpoena was served. His prices are quite reasonable. I will be sending more work his way and highly recommend his company.

Gift Wango 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is the best service! Don’t waste your time and money with those big online process service companies. I tried them to serve documents at an apartment and at a place of work and it didn’t work out despite paying them for the service. All I got was a proof of nonservice which I didn’t need because I had to serve him in person to allow the judge to make a decision on all the issues I was filing for. Clearview got the job done professionally and expeditiously! I even got a photo with coordinates of the person and a date and time stamp! Wonderful job!

Fantastic experience: TOPS THEM ALL! I am a paralegal in Los Angeles and have been serving documents 36 years. At times I have documents served in other states for clients. I deal with a lot of different process servers. JOSH at Clearview Legal and Investigative Services consistently tops them all! Professional, a pleasure to work with – He is smart, cared about my needs each time I’ve utilize his service. Used him on several different serves and investigations, some have been difficult yet, he is always OUTSTANDING; getting the job done quickly and accurately. I wish all process servers and investigators were reliable and efficient as Josh from Clearview. Kudos, Josh, on another job well done and satisfying me and my clients each and every time. I will continue using Clearview exclusively for the Seattle and Washington areas. Keep up the good work!

Fantastic experience: We had a great experience with Clearview. Joshua was really quick to respond late on a Friday evening and maintained excellent communication throughout the process. He was able to serve papers to a respondent at the courthouse and got us the Return of Service paperwork the next day. I hope I never need to go through this again, but if I do, I know who I'll call.

Jennifer Witaschek 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Josh was great. I was trying to serve a foreign deposition subpoena from Alaska and he was very responsive to my communication, pleasant and efficient. I requested expedited service and he picked up the subpoena from the Seattle court and had it served that same day. It was a relief knowing I could depend on him to get the job done from Alaska. And I was also able to pay through their website which made it so convenient. I highly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: Wow, these guys were soooo awesome. This was my 3rd time having to serve papers and it is a very difficult moment to prepare for. Clearview went far above and beyond in customer service and competency. It was over so quick. My case was tricky due to limited technology on my end and ability to make contact with the Respondent but Clearview made it so easy when other process servers would not. I wouldn't look anywhere else if you need one, seriously.

Fantastic experience: I needed some court documents served in Seattle (I am from out of town.) After checking around I decided to use Clearview Legal Services. The price and the service was GREAT!! I got the papers to Joshua a bit before noon on a Friday, and fully did not expect this to be done until at least Monday. I was completely surprised a couple hours later when he sent a text saying it was done! WOW that put my mind at ease!I I was able to enjoy the rest of a sunny Friday afternoon sitting on a dock and fishing with a friend!!

Eric DeLary 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough about Clearview and the amazing professionalism and outstanding customer service they displayed in a recent (and rather urgent) process service. Not only is Clearview thoughtful, respectful and responsive but also had impeccable follow up and communication throughout and following the process. They deserve 5+ stars and I would recommend them for any of your legal service or investigative needs!!

Michelle Balzer 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I hired Clearview to serve unruly tenants that have a history of bullying and harassment. I've never gone through an eviction process, let alone been the evictor and was really nervous about it. But Clearview were so professional and knowledgeable I was instantly at ease. They went above and beyond to make sure the tenants were served, waiting several hours to serve and then waiting a bit afterwards to make sure everything was calm. They even offered to file all the documentation- Amazing! Clearview cares about what they do, making difficult situations easier. The best part? They contacted me several days later just to see how things were going! I'll definitely use them again if needed and would recommend them to anyone

Andy 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had trouble finding my long lost nephew who moved away years ago and didn't tell anyone where he went. I spent countless hours online searching for him, all of us were worried. I heard about Clear View from a friend and gave him a try not thinking much of it, but within 4-5 days he was able to track him down an address and we've since been reunited. Maybe it's not magic but he sure got the job done.

Sky Iolta 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great service, very professional. Clearview was able to find the guy I was suing and served my papers quickly and effectively.

Moriah Hollywood 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Okay, I didn’t know how to go about locating someone who had rented a place from me and now owned me money and had moved away to the Washington area ; all I had was a phone number and I felt lost. I needed to locate the guy to be able to sue for the money he owed. I contacted Clearview P.I. and told him my story - He was patient and I was assured he could locate the most current information available on the person with what is called a Skip Trace – I ordered the Skip Trace and in less than 24 hours, I knew where the scoundrel could be found and served. I then was able to file the lawsuit and get him SERVED! This was the best experience – Clearview P.I. not only served the papers but made me feel confident and at ease through the entire process. If you need to locate and serve someone, I would definitely recommend this guy! 
