Which Massachusetts Cities and Towns Does Capitol Constable Service Cover?
Updated
Capitol Constable Service, LLC covers civil process service in Peabody, Salem, Beverly, Danvers, and Lynn through its bonded constable, Christopher P. Chigas. For court process and notices that do not require an appointed or elected constable, the office may be able to assist in other areas around the greater Northshore — call 978-977-0427 to confirm whether your location is covered.
The Five Towns With Constable Authority
According to the company profile on constableservice.com, Chris Chigas is a Bonded Constable with authority to serve all Civil Process in:
- Peabody
- Salem
- Beverly
- Danvers
- Lynn
This is the core coverage area for civil process service. If your documents need to be served by an appointed or elected constable, these five municipalities are where that authority applies.
Beyond the Five Towns: What May Still Be Possible
The site notes that many other types of court process and notices do not require service by an appointed or elected constable. For those documents, the office may be able to help in other areas around the greater Northshore.
The site does not list specific additional towns for this broader coverage. The stated way to find out is to call the office directly at 978-977-0427 or 800-977-0427 and ask whether they can assist in your area.

- If yes, check whether your town is one of the five listed above.
- If your town is not listed, or if you are unsure whether your document requires a constable, call 978-977-0427 or 800-977-0427.
- Describe your document type and location so the office can confirm whether they can assist.
The site does not publish a full town-by-town coverage map beyond the five municipalities named, so a phone call is the most direct way to get a definite answer for any other Northshore location.
