Yes. We can assist with the service of foreign legal documents in England and Wales pursuant to Article 10(b) of the Hague Service Convention. Instructions must be received through a Solicitor in England and Wales, who acts as the competent person for the purposes of arranging service. Whilst the preferred method of service is often through the Central Authority, this can be a lengthy process. Service via Article 10(b) can provide overseas lawyers and legal professionals with a faster alternative where appropriate. Upon completion, we can provide detailed evidence of service to support the overseas proceedings. We can connect you with a firm of lawyers in the UK, who can assist you with this.
