What Is a Canadian Process Server?

A Canadian Process Server is a professional who serves legal documents such as summons, subpoenas, restraining orders and divorce papers to individuals involved in a court case. These individuals are known as defendants and respondents in Canada. Process servers use different methods of delivering these documents. They can personally deliver them to the individuals or sub-serve them by delivering the court papers to someone close to them, such as a friend or family member.

A process server is required to make at least three attempts to complete service before submitting a proof of service. This is especially important when serving evasive parties in Canada where they may employ tactics such as skip tracing and stakeout to avoid being served.

Why Choose a Canadian Process Server for Your Legal Needs

This country is a party to the Hague Service Convention, which means service needs to be perfected in accordance with specific rules. While it can be more complicated than other countries that don’t participate in the Convention, there are still ways to make service easier, including private agent service and service by mail.
