Legal service

Our procedure

Persons who need to serve documents on the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS) may do so at the Department’s administrative offices at 1575 Sherman St. in Denver. The Department accepts service on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Alternatively, you may contact the chief legal director to arrange service outside these days and times.

The Department does not accept legal service on individuals, including CDHS employees. For questions, you may contact the individual directly or the chief legal director.

About legal service

Legal service (sometimes described as legal process) refers to the process where one party to a legal claim must notify the other party to the legal claim if actions are taken against them in a court of law. This includes service of subpoenas to produce or to testify.

CDHS recognizes that persons have a need to lawfully serve documents on CDHS. This procedure ensures that legal documents are accepted in a manner that promotes efficiency and accuracy, ensures legal documents are handled properly and get to the correct people, and aligns with the hybrid work environment for CDHS employees.
