Process Serving

When documents or dialogue need an in-person presence.

Some matters require more than letters, emails and telephone calls. Justice Served offers professional process serving and direct personal attendance where a physical approach is justified and proportionate.

Presence, properly used, can restore momentum.

Whether serving legal documents or making direct contact in support of a recovery instruction, attendance should be clear, professional and purposeful.

Important Distinction

Serving documents is not the same as enforcing a debt.

We distinguish clearly between process serving, debt recovery attendance and regulated enforcement activity. That clarity protects both the client and the integrity of the work undertaken.

Direct, but never theatrical.

Attendance should create clarity and progress — not noise. Professionalism matters at the door as much as it does on the page.

Services

Two related capabilities. Different purposes.

Process Serving Professional service of legal and formal documents, with clear confirmation and reporting.
Field Attendance A direct in-person approach where ordinary remote communication has failed and attendance is justified.
Recovery Support Attendance can complement broader recovery work, particularly where responsiveness has collapsed.

Process Serving

When formal delivery needs to be done properly.

  • Clear instructions and document handling.
  • Attendance with a proper record of attempts.
  • Professional confirmation/reporting after service or attempted service.
  • Support that can stand alongside wider legal or recovery strategy.

Field Attendance

When a credible personal presence is needed.

There are occasions when the matter has simply stagnated behind unanswered emails and non-committal promises. A professional attendance can often establish very quickly whether meaningful engagement is still available.

Where used, it should be proportionate, authorised and properly documented.

Charging

Fixed-fee attendance, with travel or waiting where applicable.

Process serving and field attendance typically involve fixed fees, with any travel, mileage or waiting components made clear in advance. The current operational mileage rate is 60p per mile where mileage is chargeable.

Used selectively

Attendance is not the default answer to every debt. It is one of several tools that may be appropriate when the circumstances justify direct personal intervention.
