Appellate Practice Attorney serving New York, NY
While I am not specifically familiar with Illinois procedure, in the jurisdictions in which I practice there is no requirement that a subpoena be signed by the person being subpoenaed. Such a requirement would make no sense.
If you're asking whether service was proper because the subpoena was delivered to a family member rather than you, personally, again I am not familiar with Illinois procedure, but in most states service upon a person of suitable age and discretion at the home of the person being subpoenaed would be sufficient, although additional steps (such as an additional mailing) may be required.
