Process Service is Defined by Strict Laws

Service of process is a legal procedure in which one party in a lawsuit gives the other party notice of their legal action. If you’re filing for divorce, for example, you have to let your partner know what you’re doing so within an appropriate amount of time. The local and federal laws surrounding how and when you serve legal papers are strict and complex, and not every case will follow the same rules. That’s why we’re here to make it easier. We’ll look at your individual case and use our expert knowledge to ensure your process service request is entirely lawful, and you have all the documents your service will require. With the help of our team, you won’t get tripped up by the law.

Almost Anyone can be a Process Server — But Not Everyone Should

You don’t need a degree to become a process server, and in some states, you don’t even need to pass a training program. That means that almost anyone can become a process server, but that doesn’t mean that anyone can effectively serve you. Process servers need in-depth knowledge of legal documents, California court services and laws, and the professional methods required to help you serve your opposing party. If even one detail is out of place, your whole case could fall apart, which isn’t ideal. Process servers don’t just need to know how to properly serve a party, but also how to find them. It’s not uncommon for an opposing party to run across the Golden Gate Bridge and head far, far away. If that happens, then you’re going to need a top California process server to hunt them down.

Failure to Serve Someone Correctly Can Result in Case Delays or Dismissal

Can you serve someone yourself? Legally, no, you can’t. A friend or relative could technically serve most documents, but without the correct legal knowledge, that can be incredibly tricky. Just like hiring someone who isn’t an experienced process server, this could lead to problems or mistakes being made. If you do make an error in the proceedings, you’re liable to run into case delays and could even end up having your case dismissed.

If you’re concerned about anything going wrong and want to serve legal documents immediately (or as soon as possible), it’s good to avoid doing it yourself. It’s also wise to spend a little time making sure you find a qualified, experienced process server team to help you. When it comes to something as important as serving papers for a legal case, you don’t want just anyone taking on the job. This is an incredibly important process that needs to be taken seriously, especially if you want a smooth, stress-free case.

Serving papers is also incredibly time-consuming. If you don’t have the hours in the day to micromanage your friends and relatives and teach them something that you aren’t an expert in, a competent process server is exactly who you need. They deal with all of this so that you don’t have to. All you need to do is tell them what you want to happen and they’ll do the rest. You need a professional, knowledgeable team that has experience across a wide variety of cases. That’s where we come in.
