Some states do not have the Add New Service Contact option in their Action menus. There may be added fees when serving via mail service. The filer can select the service method during the filing process in the service section.
To add a new service contact in these states, you will first need to save your draft, then add the service contact information to your account's or firm's Service Contact list.
- To save your draft, scroll to the bottom of the envelope and click Save as Draft.
Doing this will take you back to your Filer Dashboard. - For more information on the Firm Service Contact list, please see this article.
After adding the contact information to your account's or firm's Service Contact list, resume your draft and select the Add From Service Contacts option in the Service Contacts section.
