Our Services

Unlike process serving farms that assign your case to whoever is closest, Brian Cooper handles every service personally — from first attempt to proof of service.

Process Serving

Skip Tracing

Advanced investigative techniques to locate hard-to-find individuals. Database searches, field investigation, and asset identification for evasive defendants.

Difficult Serves

Specializing in cases others have failed. Gated communities, hostile recipients, evasive individuals — Brian Cooper gets it done personally.

Court Filings

Same-day filing at all Los Angeles County courthouses. Documents filed accurately and proof of filing returned promptly.

Stakeout Services

Dedicated surveillance and stakeout operations for subjects who are avoiding service. Patient, persistent, and professional.

Rush & Same-Day

About Brian Cooper

Your Case Never Leaves
My Hands

I'm Brian Cooper, owner and sole operator of Los Angeles Express Process Servers. I founded this firm on a simple principle that the process serving industry has largely abandoned: one server, one case, total accountability.

While most process serving companies operate as dispatch farms — taking your order and sending whoever is available — I handle every single case personally. When you hire Los Angeles Express, you hire me. Not a subcontractor. Not a part-timer. Me.

My specialty is the cases others have given up on. Skip tracing evasive defendants, serving subjects in gated communities and secured buildings, and finding people who believe they're unfindable. I combine advanced database research with old-school field work to deliver results.

Operating from our offices on Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica, I serve all of Los Angeles County and throughout Southern California. Every case gets my personal cell number, direct updates, and a guaranteed proof of service that holds up in court.
