Repeated failures usually mean the working assumption about where the subject lives is wrong, not that the subject is evading.
Rebuild rather than retry
Set the failed address aside and rebuild from documented anchors: recorded property, entity affiliations, relationship records, and dated public filings. Starting from the same aggregated export produces the same answer.
Consider non-residential locations
Workplace addresses, business locations, and registered agent designations are often the more reliable path where the jurisdiction permits service there. Entity defendants in particular are frequently served faster through the agent of record.
Document as you go
Preserve attempt dates, times, observations, and the research basis for each address. If diligence is later challenged, that contemporaneous record is what supports the affidavit.
Know when to change strategy
Sometimes research establishes that a subject cannot be located at any conventional address. That conclusion, documented properly, is itself useful — it supports the motion practice that follows.
