State Process Serving Company, operated by Christopher D. Fragette, 3281 Elk Court. Yorktown Heights, NY, 10598 just engaged in what can only be described as egregiously unprofessional conduct. I have been a practicing litigator at an Amlaw 100 firm for over 20 years, have hired hundreds of process servers myself, and have never heard of such atrocious conduct.

His conduct was reported to the authorities. read more
