Legal Question in Family Law in California
Service by mail family law
For child visitation dispute hearing etc.: Can you serve the party by mail? If so, would a certificate of mailing from the post office be adequate; or would a signature by the party served be needed?

You can serve the other party by mail if it is pre-judgment, otherwise it has to be personally served.
You don't need a signature from the party that was served. You must have a non-party serve the document, and that person should then sign a proof of service explaining how service was effected. That proof of service should then be filed with the court.
