How to Serve Legal Documents on CDE

Please be aware that if you need to serve legal documents on CDE, you have two options:

1. You may send a request for a waiver of personal service to commissioner@cde.state.co.us. Our email account is regularly monitored, and we will respond to your request in due course. Your email should include:

All of the documents you need to serve
A waiver form for acceptance of the service

2. Alternatively, you may serve your legal documents on the Department by delivering them personally to the Attorney General’s Office at the Colorado Department of Law’s Office. CDE has authorized the Attorney General to accept your service on its behalf.
