Local Process Services Company
Experienced Professional Attorney Assistance
Our servers deliver legal documents to parties involved in a lawsuit or legal proceeding. Our server’s primary responsibility is to ensure that the recipients receive the documents in a legal and appropriate manner. Here’s an overview of our process server’s role and the general process they follow:
- Legal Documents: AAF’s process server is provided with legal documents that need to be delivered. These documents can include summonses, complaints, subpoenas, writs, or other court-related papers.
- Research and Locate: Our server first conducts research to locate the intended recipients of the documents. This can involve gathering information about their current address, place of employment, or other relevant details. They may use public records, databases, or other investigative techniques to find the individuals.
- Serve the Documents: Once the recipients’ location is determined, AAF’s process server personally delivers the legal documents to them. This usually involves visiting the recipient’s residence, workplace, or any other place where they can be found. It’s essential to follow specific legal procedures while serving the documents to ensure they are delivered correctly.
- Proof of Service: After serving the documents, our process server completes an affidavit or a proof of service form. This document serves as evidence that the legal papers were properly delivered to the intended parties. The process server provides detailed information about the time, date, and manner in which the service was carried out.
- File with the Court: Our server returns the proof of service document to the individual or entity who requested the service. This document is then filed with the court handling the case to establish that the legal documents were successfully served.
- Confidentiality and Professionalism: AAF Process Serrvices maintain strict confidentiality and professionalism throughout the process. They should respect the privacy of the parties involved and act in accordance with the laws and regulations governing process serving in their jurisdiction.
It’s important to note that specific rules and requirements for process serving can vary by jurisdiction. Therefore, it’s crucial for AAF’s process servers to have a thorough understanding of the applicable laws and regulations in their area of operation. Additionally, some jurisdictions may require process servers to be licensed or registered, while others may have specific training requirements.
