About Process Serving

  • Service of Process is when legal documents such as summonses, complaints, subpoenas, writs and other court documents are delivered to the individual to whom the legal document is directed. Service of Process must be served by an individual who is not a party to the case.

    What does a Process Server do?


    A legal process server delivers (or serves) legal documents to a defendant or an individual involved in a court case. The process server must serve the documents in accordance with the legislation in the area of service. This may mean handing the documents to the defendant personally or performing substituted service to someone in the same household or business. Once the documents are delivered, the process serving agent must provide proof that the papers were served. This is done through a document call an Affidavit of Service, also called a Proof of Service, which must be notarized and given to the party who requested service.

    Process servers will also file your papers with the courts, can do document retrieval and may offer various types of investigations: skip trace, people locates, surveillance, etc.

    Do I need a Process Server?


    Under English court procedure rules, it is necessary to serve papers to start proceedings correctly. The appointment of an Process Server for service of legal process is advisable where there is a legal relationship between two or more parties without a place of business within the United Kingdom and their contract is governed by English law.

    If the parties appoint an agent within the United Kingdom to receive service of any legal writs or claims on their behalf, it avoids difficulties connected with service outside the jurisdiction.
