Whether you need documents served in a busy urban center or a rural area, we have the local knowledge to ensure prompt delivery.

According to United States legal procedure, all parties must be notified when facing legal action against them in a court of law. The notification (called service of process) is accomplished through the delivery of a set of documents describing the legal action. Those documents may include subpoenas, complaints, summonses, writs, and order to show cause.

A process server is responsible for delivering legal documents to the parties involved in court proceedings. Process servers must adhere to all state regulations governing legal service of process.

Process servers typically locate the corporation, registered agent, or individual named on the document, travel to them to deliver the documents, verify the person's identity before handing over the papers, and then provide their client with a signed proof of service. This proof of service, also called the affidavit of service, details the time, date and location of the service of process, and the subject's name. It is the document you can present in court to verify that successful service of process occurred.

Service of process must be carried out by a professional who understands the state laws and is well-versed on best practices. Any failure to follow legal procedures can result in issues for other parties in the court case, which is why you should leave service of process to a professional. An experienced and knowledgeable process server such as Brandywine Process Servers will do everything by the book and make it easy to demonstrate that you fairly notified the other parties of impending legal action.
