The All Lanes Guide – Why can’t I serve the documents myself?

Signing - Investigation Services - All Lanes

Often it feels like an unnecessary expense to hire a Process Server, because the task feels like something that you can do on your own.  It does not seem that hard to find the person that you are serving and to hand them the documents in question.

However, to ensure that all documents are served timeously and correctly, to ensure that it is not dismissed during the court proceedings, we advise hiring a professional process server.

Process Servers are outside the proceedings and are not emotionally involved in any way; as a result, a Process Server’s proof of service will receive more weight in Court than a statement made by any of the parties involved.

In the case of a Divorce Petition or Anti-Molestation order, it could also cause unnecessary stress and emotional turmoil to the individual serving it.  Rather trust an experienced and professional individual, who does this every day, to serve papers.

In the UK, serving legal documents or a court order can be a difficult task.  Court orders can be served in many ways – some can be letterboxed at the given address (and only if a certain procedure has been followed), whilst others require a more personal approach.

If the service effected is not in line with the law, the progress of your case might be impeded or your case might be entirely dismissed.  It is universally recommended that you hire the services of an experienced process server like All Lanes to make absolutely sure that all documents are served correctly and on time.
