Pricing

More-or-less in the midrange, Vaughan process servers average out a charge of $70 for service. $150 for up to 3 attempts using the court runner app. More often than not, this does not include mileage fees, which vary between $.60 to $.80 a km if you are heading further out, such as to King City or Nobleton.

Ordering a skip trace is also varying in cost based on the amount of information available to the specific process server, but will generally cost between $115 (basic) and $500 for an exhaustive skip trace. Skip tracing may become particularly relevant in more hostile cases, such as lawsuits due to defaulted payments or certain divorces. Sometimes it may be best practice to order the skip trace to ensure that everything is delivered safely, without any harm or splashback your way in the end. This is definitely a case-by-case basis consideration, however.

Fee above excludes mileage fees, HST, insurance, MISC, etc.

What do I do after I hand over the documents?

As soon as the documents are in the hands of the process server, you can more or less lie back and relax. Vaughan Process Server will now complete their part of the deal, including all of the additionally requested services (e.g. skip tracing).

Through traditional process serving and through Court Runner, you will be notified of when the process server has handed over the documents and prepare the affidavit of service—the signed and legitimate proof of reception.

Then, all that is left is to file the affidavit of service (AOS) before the court so that it can enter the official record. Once that is done, you are all set to continue with the legal proceedings.
