Frequently Asked Questions
What is process serving?
Process serving is the legal procedure of delivering court documents, such as subpoenas, summonses, complaints, and other legal notices, to the intended recipient in accordance with state laws.
Why do I need a process server?
A process server ensures that legal documents are properly delivered and that proof of service is provided, which is crucial for legal proceedings to move forward.
How long does it take to serve someone??
The timeframe varies depending on the urgency, the recipient’s location, and how difficult they are to locate. Standard service attempts begin within a few days, while rush service is available for quicker delivery.
What happens if the person refuses to be served?
If someone refuses to accept the documents, a process server can still complete service by following legal guidelines, such as leaving the documents with them or performing substitute service.
Can a process server track down someone who is avoiding service?
Yes, process servers use skip tracing techniques to locate individuals who are difficult to find or actively avoiding service.
What proof do I receive that the person was served?
After serving the documents, the process server provides an Affidavit of Service (or Proof of Service), which is a notarized document confirming when, where, and how the service was completed.
Can a process server serve documents at someone's workplace?
Yes, in most cases, a process server can deliver documents to a person’s place of employment, as long as it complies with state laws and does not disrupt the workplace.
