Serving Ingham County 30th Judicial Circuit Court

The 30th Judicial Circuit Court is the trial court of general jurisdiction for Ingham County, Michigan. It handles felony criminal cases, civil suits with more than $25,000 in dispute, and family matters through its Family Division, along with appeals from the district and probate courts. The circuit runs two locations, the Veterans Memorial Courthouse at 313 West Kalamazoo Street in downtown Lansing and the Ingham County Courthouse at 315 South Jefferson Street in Mason.

Papers Delivered is a private process serving company hired to deliver legal documents tied to cases in this court. Legal advice and case status come from your attorney or the clerk's office handling your case. We serve summons, complaints, subpoenas, personal protection orders, and other court papers to people and businesses across the county, then return a signed proof of service.

Ingham County stretches from Lansing and East Lansing east to Williamston and south to Mason and Leslie, and our servers cover all of it. Lansing is the seat of Michigan state government, so many parties in these cases work or live downtown, and we know the neighborhoods, the courthouse hours, and the filing steps. We work 24 hours a day, every day of the year, so a hard to reach defendant can be attempted early, late, or on a weekend.

Why Fast Service Matters

A Michigan circuit court summons stays valid for only a set window, and once it expires the case can stall until the clerk issues a new one. In a busy county like Ingham, a person can be hard to catch between a downtown Lansing job and a home out in the townships, so an early start matters. Papers Delivered logs each attempt with date, time, and place and returns notarized proof quickly, which keeps a divorce, eviction, or civil case moving toward its first hearing.
