So, you’ve met us – Court Runner – but what is process-serving for those who don’t really understand the terminology? What are the brief ins and outs? (by the way, there’s a ton more information in our FAQ page.)

Who is a Process Server?
A process server is, simply put, someone who serves legal documents on behalf of a court or individual, making sure that the recipient is aware of and confirms the reception of said documents. Process servers play a vital role in the legal process, expediting the speed of courts of law, and oftentimes allowing for more civil, discreet, and safe reception of documents on behalf of individuals who might not take it fantastic.
This also involves skip tracing, which is the actual process of locating the recipient who needs to get the documents, which can sometimes be more difficult than it seems. Hence, it’s an important job and a set of skills that is a lot more vital than many people believe.
This is their main job – of course, they also fulfill a huge range of duties outside of this, namely being handling and organization of court documents and various forms, filing paperwork and more. The hidden backbone of the legal system in many countries, they’re often overlooked by those outside of the system that are unfamiliar with the process.
Most often, process servers will either have their own websites, or be associated with a particular court or agency, serving papers on their behalf.
For Court Runner, we have an established network of verified, qualified and reliable process servers ready to help.
What is an affidavit of Service?
An affidavit of service is an extremely important document that we always handle with utmost priority – it is the document that shows your process server has successfully handed over the papers to your target recipient.

All of our process servers will make sure to have your Affidavit of Service ready to go as soon as everything is done, so you never have to follow up on your end. Court Runner has you covered.
Is Court Runner usable in the US?
Absolutely. Just download the app on the platform you need and get started serving papers once you’ve registered and gotten everything ready!
