Serving papers in North Lauderdale
The townhome and apartment communities, the single-family streets and the shopping centers along McNab Road and Southgate Boulevard.
North Lauderdale is in north-central Broward County, between Tamarac and Margate, the 17th Judicial Circuit, so every job here goes to one of our process servers certified in that circuit.
The 33068 ZIP code
North Lauderdale shares ZIP code 33068 with part of Margate, so many papers name Margate for an address that is in North Lauderdale, or the other way round. We serve the street address as written and confirm it exists before the first trip.
Townhome communities
Many homes are in townhome communities with an association and sometimes a gate. Florida Statutes section 48.031(7) requires a gated residential community, including a condominium association or a cooperative, to grant a process server unannounced entry to serve a resident. Units in these communities often look alike, so the full unit number saves an attempt.
The closest courthouses are the North Regional Courthouse, 1600 West Hillsboro Boulevard, Deerfield Beach and the West Regional Courthouse, 100 North Pine Island Road, Plantation. Circuit and county civil cases are filed at the Broward County Courthouse, 201 SE 6th Street, Fort Lauderdale. See our guide to service of process in Broward.
