Coverage

We serve legal documents across England and Wales, including injunctions, seven-day notices and insolvency proceedings.

First attendance

For our standard service, the first attendance is typically made in 1–2 working days.

What we need

Send the documents, service instructions, recipient address, deadlines and any specific service requirements by secure email or post.

What you receive

After successful service, we provide proof in the required format, such as an affidavit or statement of service.

Urgent service

Our urgent service offers same-day, out-of-hours attendance, with priority confirmation and proof of service documents.

How Our Process Serving Works

From first instruction to final proof, we follow a structured procedure that meets all legal requirements and keeps your case moving forward as quickly as possible.

Receive and Review

We accept documents and service instructions by secure email or post. We run over addresses, deadlines, and any specific service requirements, to make sure we are compliant with your needs and take the most appropriate course of action.

Plan the Approach

If personal service is required, we plan attendance accordingly. We investigate the recipient to confirm their address and frequently visited locations, such as their workplace.

Attempt Service

Our certificated agents attempt service. We make sure to attend at evenings and weekends to maximise the chances of an encounter. Each attempt is recorded.

Confirm Progress

Once service is completed, we notify you by email or phone with the key details, so you can update your timetable and move on to the next step.

Proof of Service

We provide proof of service in the format required, such as a sworn affidavit or a statement of service (Form N215). This includes when, where, how, and by whom service was completed, alongside and any relevant observations.

Serving an Evasive Recipient

If personal service cannot be achieved, we report back on what has been attempted and provide the information required for you to pursue the next lawful option, including an application for substituted service where appropriate.

Our Approach

Over 30 Years Without a Case Dismissed Due to Our Service

It’s easy to brush over the value of professional service. In theory, all you have to do is hand over some papers. But that kind of thinking puts the liability of court cases at risk. If service is unverifiable, late, or not done to the letter of the law, the consequences can be costly.
With a trained process server, you guarantee the job is done right and done quickly. We work to the high standards set out in Civil Procedure Rules and the relevant requirements for the document in question, and our expertise in investigations ensures we will not be stopped by evasive tactics. Once our job is done, you will receive a detailed proof of service report to support your matter.

We believe that successful enforcement is measured by resolution over confrontation, so we aim to de-escalate the situation you’re facing, not intensify it. If that sounds right for you, give us a call. We’ll listen to your issue, assess your case, and advise on the most reasonable way forward. You can ask us any questions you have about us or the legal process, and learn more about our approach. All commitment-free.
