Many people are not aware of the important role that private process servers play. If you have never been served or had a legal matter before the courts, you probably only have a rudimentary idea of the document service process. While you have the ability to use the sheriff to have your papers served, using a private process server can have many benefits. Here are just a few of the ways that private process servers can assist you.
Finding Litigants
If your legal case is against a defendant or respondent, you will need to have them served before your case can move forward. Sheriff’s departments have limited resources, and they will not spend time trying to track down the litigant. Instead, they will simply attempt service at known addresses, then refer it back as undeliverable. However, a private process server has many tools at their disposal to find people who have moved or are avoiding service.
Fast and Prompt Service
The sheriff’s department has a lot of responsibilities beyond serving papers. Most of those responsibilities take precedence, and papers that need to be served are often put on the back burner for a less busy day. This means that your papers may not be served in a timely manner. A private process server can help you in these situations by ensuring prompt and fast service so that your case can move forward quickly.
Customer Experience and Service
A private process server can also give you a more personalized and unique customer experience with excellent customer service. A private process server can answer all of your questions about how service of process works, what you can do to help, and how they can make sure that your papers are served accurately and promptly. A sheriff’s department is not going to take the time to make these explanations.
