ou've been served!"
Ever wonder about the business of process serving, and what they pay those mysterious strangers who say your name, hand you a manila envelope, and then disappear?
Well today's guest did wonder, and it was actually right as he himself was getting served.
Our hero Raj Kankaria was out of work and going through a divorce (hence the papers) when he decided to become a process server himself.
Flash forward to June 1st, 2025, and he acquired the process-serving business he'd gone to work for.
Lone Star Attorney Services serves about 10,000 papers per year, generating $1.3m and $250k in SDE.
While that is small, especially for a guy who could be earning upwards of half a million in corporate, Raj believes this business and the industry overall holds a ton of promise:
- Mom-and-pop.
- Highly fragmented.
- Re-occurring revenue.
- Lagging in tech.
"I strongly believe that legal services and litigation services is gonna be the next target for private equity and consolidation," Raj says.
See what you think.
And see what you think of Raj's journey. He was at a personal low when a door presented itself, an unlikely one. And Raj has been rewarded for his initiative, for his spirit of adventure in turning the knob and walking through.
Here is Raj Kankaria, owner of Lone Star Attorney Services.
