What do Jacksonville Process Servers do?

A process server functions as an impartial third party in legal cases, responsible for the formal delivery of critical court documents. Their role holds significance, as legal notification procedures adhere to rigid protocols.

Unlike regular correspondence, official litigation paperwork cannot be sent through regular mail or dropped off on a doorstep. There are legal standards for delivering legal documents that are designed to protect all parties involved in legal proceedings.

In Jacksonville, process servers have to abide by all laws laid out by the state of Florida that govern the service of process. This includes:

  • Papers can’t be served on Sundays
  • Barring special circumstances, the first attempt must be made at the defendant’s personal residence
  • Process servers may be able to leave papers with someone else who lives at the residence of the defendant, but never with anyone under the age of 15
  • When a defendant can’t be found at their residential address, a server may inform the defendant’s employer that they intend to serve papers at the work address; employers face a $1,000 fine if they are non-compliant

 

These are not the only laws that govern process servers in Jacksonville, which is why we make sure that our servers know how to fully comply with every single Florida statute related to process serving.

Our Jacksonville process servers must:

  • Complete rigorous and ongoing training
  • Verify the identity of individual(s) receiving court documents
  • Successfully track down recipient(s) to deliver paperwork
  • Adhere fully to Florida regulations for document delivery
  • Complete assignments in a timely manner
  • Create an official record of exchange as legally required (video or written statement)
  • Interact respectfully and formally when serving
  • Carefully handle all specifics to prevent errors that could negatively impact a legal case

 

Process serving is an important part of any legal conflict. When a person is served with legal documents by a process server, it is their official notification that they are being named as a defendant in legal proceedings.

What Professions Need to Hire Process Servers?

  • Collection agencies lean heavily on process servers to provide notice to people who owe money. Servers formally deliver important docs like demand letters, lawsuits, court orders, wage garnishments, etc.
  • Insurance companies regularly use process servers so that policyholders get formal notice about claim disputes, subrogation rights, canceled plans, and other insurance legalities. Servers formally pass along the necessary paperwork on the insurers’ behalf.
  • Corporations use process servers to handle legal notification and document delivery for various business disputes, intellectual property cases, contract enforcement, and other corporate legal issues. Servers formally pass along lawsuits, subpoenas, summons, and other legal docs to the relevant parties.
  • Private investigators often team up with process servers to legally issue subpoenas to get info, records, testimony, etc. for investigations. Process servers formally deliver the subpoenas to compel cooperation. Some PIs even serve as process servers themselves.
  • Government agencies use process servers to formally deliver court orders, tax liens, eviction notices, and other legal documents required for agency operations. Servers handle formal notification and paperwork documentation for these government legal matters.
  • Property managers may use process servers to formally notify tenants about overdue rent, lease violations, evictions, and related disputes. Servers legally deliver the required notices about these issues.
  • Private citizens can bring in process servers without a lawyer to handle notification for small claims cases, family court, probate issues, and more. Servers formally deliver the legal papers for these cases.

Serve Defendants right the first time.

Being a leader in the civil process service industry means providing our clients with unparalleled integrity, excellence, and reliability.
