We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

How do I know if Ive been served?

While being served can be as simple as being handed legal documents, when you hear the phrase, Youve been served, it typically means that youve been served notice of legal proceedings against you. Youve been served usually means that you have been handed notification that you are being sued.

Do you get a call before being served?

Process servers generally do not call to warn you, and you have no obligation to go out of your way to make yourself available for service of process.

What happens if you cant find the person you need to serve?

If the process server (the person who gives the notice of lawsuit) cannot find him or her there, ask the server for an Affidavit of Service. The affidavit is a sworn testimony to the court that the process server tried to serve the right person at the right place and time. Its called due diligence.

Is a summons the same thing as a warrant?

It is within the prerogative of the Office of the U. S. Attorney to request a Criminal Summons in lieu of a warrant of arrest. It is the same as a warrant, except it shall summon the individual named therein to appear before a U. S. Magistrate or Judge at a given time and location.

What is a proof of summons?

Proof of Service of Summons (POS-010) Tells the court that you had a summons or other legal papers delivered to (served on) the other party in a case. Lists the papers that were served and tells who they were served on, where, when, and how they were served, and who served them.

How to find out if youre being served?

Go to your local courts website and see if there are any cases with you listed as a defendant. If somebody is trying to serve a lawsuit on you, it will have already been filed. In that case, you can call the Clerk of Court. That offices number should be on the website.

Can you be served without knowing it?

But, caution: You can be served without knowing about it. If the Summons is served to someone at your residence, and then copies are mailed to you, its effective as long as its at your usual place of abode, and on some person of the family or a person residing there, whos at least 13 years old.

What are the two types of summons?
