Traits Of A Good Process Server

Process servers in Florida are professionals who are responsible for delivering legal documents to individuals involved in a court case, ensuring that the legal process moves forward smoothly. At Accurate Serve® in Lakeland, Florida, with additional offices in Tampa, St. Petersburg, and New Port Richey, we understand the importance of having a reliable process server. We provide services across Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Polk, Hardee, and Highlands counties, each with its own set of regulations for process servers. In this post, we will explore the essential traits that make a good process server.

Knowledge of Laws and Regulations

A good process server must be well-versed in federal and state laws governing the service of process. For instance, in Pinellas and Pasco counties, process servers must be approved by the local Sheriff, as per local regulations. In Hillsborough County, which is part of Florida’s 13th Judicial Circuit, process servers must be certified by the 13th circuit. Similarly, Polk, Hardee, and Highlands counties fall under Florida’s 10th Judicial Circuit, requiring process servers to be certified by the 10th Circuit.

Reliability

Reliability is a cornerstone trait for a process server. Legal proceedings often have strict timelines, and a delay in serving documents can have significant repercussions. At Accurate Serve®, we prioritize timely and accurate service to ensure that your legal process is not hindered.

Diligence and Persistence

Sometimes, the individual to be served may be difficult to locate. This is where traits like diligence and persistence come into play. Our services include skip tracing and diligent searches to ensure that the documents reach the intended recipient, no matter how elusive they may be.

Professionalism

Professionalism is non-negotiable in the legal industry. A good process server should conduct themselves in a manner that upholds the integrity of the legal process. This includes maintaining confidentiality and being respectful when interacting with individuals being served.

Versatility

The legal field is diverse, and a good process server should be versatile enough to handle various types of documents. At Accurate Serve®, we offer a range of services including process service, document retrieval, and more, to cater to different legal needs.

At Accurate Serve®, We Strive for the Highest Standards

A good process server is not just a messenger for legal documents but a crucial part of the judicial system. They must be knowledgeable, reliable, diligent, professional, and versatile. At Accurate Serve®, we embody these traits in our services, ensuring that your legal proceedings go as smoothly as possible.
