Do you need to serve court papers or legal documents in the UK? Our experienced team of professional process servers and private investigators provide efficient, discreet, and legally compliant document serving services nationwide.

Many people are unaware that private investigators often perform the essential task of serving legal documents. Hiring a professional investigator to handle your document serving ensures not only efficiency but also accuracy and compliance with all legal requirements. If you're searching to hire a process server for urgent or routine document delivery anywhere in the UK, our team is ready to assist.

What is Process Serving and Why is it Important?

Process serving involves the formal hand-delivery of legal documents directly to the individual involved in a legal case. This personal delivery confirms that the recipient has received notice of the legal action, enabling court proceedings to proceed. Without proper document service, legal cases can face delays or even dismissal due to lack of proof of service.

Using professional process servers is critical because they provide legally admissible proof of service, such as a Certificate or Affidavit of Service. This documentation is essential for court proceedings and ensures your case can move forward without delays or complications.

Why Hire Our Professional Process Servers?

Choosing a professional process server offers distinct advantages over other methods such as solicitors, bailiffs, or attempting DIY document serving. Unlike solicitors, who often outsource to process servers, our team offers direct, specialised service, ensuring quicker turnaround times. Compared to court bailiffs, who typically have limited hours and rigid schedules, our private investigators provide flexible, after-hours and weekend service tailored to your case. DIY methods, while seemingly cost-effective, risk procedural errors and incomplete or invalid service. Our professional servers eliminate these risks, ensuring your documents are served correctly the first time.
