At One Legal, we understand that eviction cases can be complex—especially for law firms representing landlords in California’s rigorous unlawful detainer process.
That’s why we’re excited to introduce a series of updates that make these legal processes smoother, faster, and more cost-effective. Our team has worked hard to deliver new tools that simplify each step and give firms more control and flexibility.
Let’s face it: time is critical when you’re managing multiple eviction cases. With our latest features, like the new Posting service level and Sheriff Delivery, we’ve taken the pain points you’ve experienced and turned them into opportunities to get things done faster and with fewer headaches.
These new options join our suite of trusted filing and service of process products to ensure you have everything you need to handle evictions more efficiently—and we’re pretty proud of what we’ve built.
The new Posting service: Faster and easier notice to vacate
One of the biggest challenges in the eviction process is ensuring that tenants are served correctly and in a timely manner. That’s where our new Posting Service Level comes in. Now, when you need a notice posted on a door, it’s as simple as selecting “Posting” when placing your order:
- Quick turnaround: We get the notice posted within 48 hours, so you can keep things moving.
- Affordable pricing: The service starts at just $45, with an extra $25 for mailing, making it a cost-effective solution that doesn’t require waiting for process servers to attempt personal delivery multiple times.
This service was designed to reduce wasted time and ensure that your eviction notices are seen—even when tenants try to dodge them. We get it: you don’t have time to chase people around. Now, you don’t have to.
Add “Unknown Occupants” with a single click
If you’ve handled unlawful detainer actions, you know that naming all occupants in the eviction process is key—especially any “unknown occupants” who might be hiding out in the rental property. Our team has made it easier than ever to add these unnamed individuals to your service requests.
With just one click, you can add an “unknown occupants” recipient when submitting your service order, simplifying a process that’s usually time-consuming and a bit of a hassle. You’ll pay full price for the first service, and a reduced rate for each additional occupant you add. It’s a small but meaningful change that gives you more efficiency right from the start.
New: Deliver your writs directly to the sheriff
Once you’ve won a judgment for possession, there’s still the matter of getting the sheriff involved to enforce it. That’s why we’re excited to launch our Sheriff Delivery service. This feature allows you to send your Writ of Possession (and other required documents) directly to the sheriff’s office—no need to handle it yourself.
Here’s how it works:
- You upload the necessary documents through One Legal, including the writ and sheriff’s instructions.
- We dispatch a local contractor to deliver the paperwork to the sheriff’s office and pay any required fees upfront.
- Trackable delivery: We provide you with a confirmation number so you can monitor the status of the writ.
Initially available in counties like Los Angeles and San Diego, we’re working hard to expand this service to more locations across California. This is a game-changer if you’re tired of personally managing the logistics of getting writs to the sheriff. Now, you can focus on your case while we handle the delivery for you.
Flexibility that works for you: Unbundled services
One of the things we’re most excited about is the unbundled nature of these new services. Rather than locking you into a full package, you can purchase only what you need.
Want to order a single posting service? No problem. Need us to handle filing and service of process? We’ve got you covered. By offering each component separately, we help you manage costs while still providing the flexibility to scale up your needs as your case progresses.
Even better, we’ve made sure that all your orders, whether for filing, service, or sheriff delivery, are linked under a single Matter number.
That means no issues tracking down orders or invoices—everything stays neatly organized and trackable from start to finish. This kind of transparency is something we’ve always believed in, and we’re thrilled to give you more control over your workflow without compromising on efficiency.
Why these updates matter
These updates aren’t just about adding more features—they’re about making your life easier. We know how hard you work, and we’ve listened to your feedback to build the tools you need to get the job done right, without wasting time or money.
Our goal is simple: to give you more control over the process while reducing the headaches that come with managing multiple tasks.
We’re really proud of these improvements and can’t wait for you to try them. With our new Posting service, easier recipient management, and Sheriff Delivery, we’re confident that One Legal will become your go-to partner for all things eviction-related. We’ve designed these tools to help you focus on your cases—and ultimately, your clients—while we take care of the rest.
