How to Serve a Court Order
If you need to know how to serve a Court Order in England and Wales, PB Process Servers UK Ltd can help. We provide a fast, reliable and fixed-fee Process Serving service for solicitors, businesses and private individuals throughout the United Kingdom.
​
Many Court Orders require personal service upon the Defendant, Respondent or other party to the proceedings. Using an experienced Process Server helps ensure documents are served correctly, reduces the risk of service being challenged and provides independent evidence of service for the Court.
Our Process Servers regularly serve Court Orders, Injunctions, Claim Forms, Statutory Demands, Bankruptcy Petitions and other legal documents. Once service has been completed, we provide court-compliant Proof of Service in the form of a Certificate of Service, Statement of Service or Affidavit of Service.
No stress. No delays. Just professional service of Court Orders throughout England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
How Do You Serve a Court Order?
The correct method of service will depend upon the type of Court Order and any directions given by the Court. Some Court Orders may be served by post, whilst others require personal service by a Process Server.
​
Where personal service is required, a Process Server will attend the address of the person to be served and personally hand the Court Order to them, or otherwise effect service in accordance with the relevant rules and procedures. Following service, evidence will be prepared confirming when, where and how the documents were served.
​
If you are unsure how your Court Order should be served, you should seek legal advice from your Solicitor or refer to the directions contained within the Order.
