Banks not on the list

Serving Wells Fargo, Chase, U.S. Bank and Citibank

Some of the largest banks in California, including Wells Fargo, Chase, U.S. Bank and Citibank, were not on the DFPI list when we checked it on October 5, 2026. Each has many more than nine California branches, so the law fills the gap (CCP § 684.115(c)):

  • Any California branch can be served. When a bank required to designate a central location has not done so, each of its California branches is treated as a central location.
  • One levy reaches every California branch. All of the bank's California branches are treated as covered by central process, so a levy served at one branch reaches the debtor's accounts at all of them.
  • Serve the person in charge. The levy is served on the branch manager or other person in charge at the time of service (CCP § 684.110).
  • Check the list first. A bank can file a designation at any time, and the DFPI posts it within 10 business days. If the bank appears on the list, serve its central location instead.

We can serve your levy at a California branch of any of these banks, then file the writ and proof of service with the sheriff. See bank levy rates.

Updates

If one of these merged into an institution on the list, serve that institution’s central location. Otherwise, the branch rules below apply.
California law

How to Serve a Bank Levy in California

California has specific rules for where a bank levy is served (Code of Civil Procedure sections 684.110 and 684.115):

  • Who must designate. A financial institution with more than nine branches or offices in California must designate one or more central locations for service of legal process and file them with the DFPI. Smaller institutions may choose to. This covers state and national banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, and safe deposit companies.
  • One levy reaches every covered branch. Service at a central location is effective against deposit accounts and property held for safekeeping at all of the branches that location covers.
  • Branch service may not count. Once an institution designates a central location, a levy served at a branch does not reach the accounts unless the institution chooses to process it.
  • No designation on file. If an institution required to designate a central location has not done so, each of its California branches is treated as a central location. Otherwise, the levy is served at the branch that carries the account, on the officer, manager, or person in charge.
  • Designations change. Institutions can change or revoke a designation with the DFPI, which posts changes within 10 business days. You can rely on the old designation for 30 days after the DFPI updates its records.
  • Related papers go to the same place. Other papers for the same levy are served at the same central location unless the institution agrees otherwise.
The process

How Our Bank Levy Service Works

  1. Find the Bank

    Search the list above for the bank or credit union and its central location.

  2. Place a Writ Order

    In your Direct Legal account, choose Writ Service and upload the writ and levy documents. If you have an original signed writ (a wet writ), mail it to Direct Legal Support, 901 Corporate Center Dr., Ste. 400, Monterey Park, CA 91754. We can prepare the levy documents for you.

  3. We Open and Serve the Levy

    We deposit the writ and the sheriff's fee with the levying officer, then our registered process server serves the levy at the bank's central location.

  4. We Close the Levy

    We file the writ, proof of service, and instructions with the levying officer within five court days. The bank then responds to the sheriff with a memorandum of garnishee.

Start an Order or call (800) 675-5376

See our writ levy service for wage garnishments, third-party levies, property levies, and federal writs.

Checklist

Before You Levy a Bank Account

A bank levy goes smoothly when these are in place before we serve it:

  • A current writ. The levy must be made within 180 days after the writ of execution is issued (CCP § 699.530).
  • Address verification for personal debt. For judgments for personal debt, the sheriff will not serve the levy without a declaration on form WG-015/EJ-135 showing the debtor's address was verified within the past 12 months (CCP § 684.130). How address verification works.
  • The levy packet. Sheriff instructions (SER-001 and SER-001A), the writ and copies, the notice of levy, the memorandum of garnishee, and the exemption forms. Our levy document checklist (PDF) lists every document and copy.
  • Account details, if known. Form SER-001A asks for the account number if you have it, and the names the account may be held under.
  • Exemptions in mind. As of July 1, 2026, $2,325 per judgment debtor is exempt from a bank levy without a claim (CCP § 704.220), and the debtor can claim other exemptions.
  • The sheriff's fee. The sheriff charges a fee to act as levying officer, currently $50 for a bank levy in Los Angeles County.
Questions

Bank Levy Questions

What is a bank levy registered agent in California?

It is the place a bank or credit union has designated to receive levies and other legal process. California calls these central locations for service of legal process. Financial institutions with more than nine California branches must designate one with the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (CCP 684.115). Some name a registered agent's office as their central location.

Where do I serve a bank levy in California?

At the institution's designated central location, if it has one. Service there reaches deposit accounts and property held for safekeeping at all the branches it covers. If the institution has no central location, the levy is served at the branch that carries the account, on the officer, manager, or person in charge (CCP 684.110).

What if the bank is not on the DFPI list?

If an institution required to designate a central location has not done so, each of its California branches is treated as a central location (CCP 684.115). Institutions with nine or fewer California branches do not have to designate one, so the levy is served at the branch that carries the account.

How do I serve a bank levy on Wells Fargo, Chase, U.S. Bank, or Citibank?

These banks were not on the DFPI list of central locations when we checked it on October 5, 2026. Because each has more than nine California branches, every California branch is treated as a central location, and a levy served at one branch reaches the debtor's accounts at all of the bank's California branches (CCP 684.115). The levy is served on the manager or person in charge at the branch.

Can I serve a branch instead of the central location?

Not reliably. Once an institution designates a central location, a levy served at a branch does not reach the accounts unless the institution chooses to process it (CCP 684.110 and 684.115).

How current is this list?

We checked it against the DFPI list on October 5, 2026. The DFPI posts new designations within 10 business days, and when an institution changes its central location, you can rely on the old one for 30 days after the DFPI updates its records.

How much does it cost to serve a bank levy?

For law firms in Los Angeles, our bank levy service is $250 Standard or $350 Urgent to open the levy, serve the bank, and file the proof of service. Parties without an attorney pay $100 more. Rates vary by city, federal writs are $100 more, and sheriff fees are extra.

Can a registered process server serve a bank levy?

Yes. CCP 699.080 lets a registered process server levy on deposit accounts. We deposit the writ and fee with the sheriff first, serve the bank, then file the writ and proof of service with the sheriff within five court days.

How much money is protected from a bank levy?

As of July 1, 2026, $2,325 per judgment debtor is exempt without a claim (CCP 704.220). The debtor can claim other exemptions, such as for Social Security or public benefit deposits.

Do I need to verify the debtor's address first?

Yes, if the judgment is for personal debt. You must verify the address within the past 12 months, give the sheriff a declaration on form WG-015/EJ-135, and file it with the court within 10 business days (CCP 684.130).
