OKC Private Investigations & Process Server in Oklahoma

Locate the Best Process Server in Mustang, Oklahoma

Most people do not know how to locate a process server until they find that they suddenly need one at the last minute. Indeed, many people do not even know what a process server is or how to hire one. Yet, they play an integral role in our modern judicial system.

To better help people understand their role, the owners of our private investigation agency have put together a series of FAQs. Anyone seeking to find a process server from a private investigation agency or who wants to hire a process server in Mustang can see the questions and their accompanying answers below:

FAQ

They deliver court papers and other legal documents to people involved in one way or another in judicial proceedings or other legal matters. They serve an irreplaceable role in informing individuals, businesses, governmental agencies, and nonprofit organizations of pending legal action against them and/or others. Without their vital services, our judicial system would grind to a complete halt. ☹

The main important thing is that each professional serves the court documents with enough time before the scheduled court date for the service to count as valid. This time allotment for each must-serve document can vary according to what he/she is attempting to serve.

If the Mustang process server is attempting to serve a small claims affidavit and order, for example, then they must serve the court papers or other legal documents at least 7 days before the scheduled court date. If, however, they are attempting to serve a subpoena for deposition, then they must successfully do so at least 3 days in advance. This difference exists because it will likely take someone who is a defendant/respondent in a small claims case more time to hire a lawyer and prepare a defense than a person called to testify about an event who is not a party to the legal action.

The cost to hire a process server can vary depending on several factors. These factors often include, but are not limited to, the following:

  1. Location of the Person Getting Served – Some of the defendants/respondents live in larger cities where there are plenty of them and thus cost less. Other cities have few, if any to serve court papers, so they must drive a longer distance and spend more fuel, time, mileage, etc., in the process. Thus, larger cities tend to cost less to hire them to serve papers in than do smaller towns and villages. 😊
  2. The Speed of Service of Process You Require – Some of our clients have rapidly approaching court dates, while other documents do not have a set court date or have one in the future. Thus, some of our clients need their papers served right away, and some do not. The faster you need our expert to serve the court documents, the more it will cost. Likewise, routine/regular service will be much cheaper to hire one than rush service.
  3. The Number of Pages to Print Out – All flat fee pricing for them includes up to 9 pages of printing for general customers and up to 20 pages for NAPPS members. Some of our clients send hundreds of even thousands of pages for them, and thus, after 9 or 20 pages, respectively they must charge a per-page fee for the printing.
  4. Whether or Not You Need Our Process Server From Our Private Investigation Agency in Mustang, Oklahoma to Spend Time Waiting and Watching – Sometimes defendants/respondents will become very evasive and will try to hide from them. When this happens, you can hire one to wait and watch for the person of interest (POI) outside of her/his/their home or place of work, etc. Eventually, most people must enter or leave from a location, so by doing a “siege serve,” it is possible for them to serve these types of individuals with court papers and other legal documents. 😊
  5. Whether or Not You Need a Skip Trace Service Performed to Locate a Missing Person – When you are unable to locate a missing person, our skip tracers can conduct a skip trace on your behalf to attempt to find a missing person. Our nationwide skip tracing service is affordable and can take place quickly, so if you need to locate missing people, please hire a skip tracer from our private investigation agency.
  6. Whether or Not You Need Any Documents Filed in Somewhere – If you need our process server to file documents in before serving the court papers, there is a small additional fee to do so.

By having the best agent to serve court papers to defendants/respondents, witnesses, etc., gives them an official notice of a pending legal action and/or a notice to show up in court and testify, provide documents, and/or file a response, etc. Having an officer of the court such as a Mustang process server, a member of law enforcement, or even a federal postal worker who delivers the notice via certified mail with a return receipt, it ensures that the individuals involved are reliably served notice of the legal action with an excellent degree of certainty.

Besides, if the courts used archaic communication systems such as carrier pigeons, town criers, or even telegraphs, the reliability of informing the people of the legal action would go down substantially. Thus, you must hire an expert to help you serve the court papers and/or other legal documents. You can find one today if you need to locate the best person for this job. 

If a process server and a sheriff’s deputy, etc., do not serve you with court papers or other legal documents, then you are not obligated to show up anywhere.

They are often the best-equipped to serve court papers and other legal documents, and they also offer nationwide skip tracing, document retrieval, nationwide criminal background checks, waiting and watching time, disguises for tricking the defendant/respondent into answering the door, both rush and routine services, and much more that a sheriff’s deputy simply does not have the time and/or capacity to do.

It is indeed possible to hire a sheriff’s deputy to serve the court papers and/or other legal documents or to attempt to serve court papers and other legal documents via certified mail with a return receipt. However, these methods often turn out to be less successful than when you choose to hire a professional. Even though a sheriff’s deputy can be cheaper to hire and a certified mailing with a return receipt is inexpensive to send, because these methods do not work well most times clients will often waste more time and money in the long run than if they had simply chosen to hire a process server from a private investigation agency.

If defendants/respondents fail to respond to legal action that a plaintiff/petitioner has brought against them in a court of law or in another legal jurisdiction, then the judge or administrative officer will likely rule against them, and they will most likely lose.
