What is a process server?
A Process Server issues legal documents to a Defendant, Respondent or Debtor; these papers must be delivered by hand.
Process serving process
Once an order has been agreed by a judge and issued from the court, a solicitor will instruct a Process Server agent, such as AH Jones Investigators, to serve the order, or legal documents. With a network of Process Servers working both locally and globally, we can serve documents anywhere in the world.

Process Servers hand-deliver a wide range of legal documents, such as:
- Divorce petitions
- Bankruptcy petitions
- Debt orders
- Injunctions
- Orders to attend court
- Statutory demands
As members of the ABI, AH Jones Investigators adheres to the strict rules and special instructions provided by the court. These rules and instructions differ, case-by-case, depending on the classification of the legal documents being served.

Our network of Process Servers is discreet and highly professional, and work tirelessly to achieve success.
How does Process Serving work?
Our network of Process Servers covers the whole of the UK to ensure the timely serving of documents. Once the order has been issued from the court, the process is as follows:
- The solicitor or client will instruct A H Jones Investigators to serve the order
- We will mobilise a local Process Server
- The Process Server will serve the documents
- We will provide the solicitor or client with confirmation of service
There are occasions when the intended Respondent will try to avoid being served; the Process Server draws on their experience to achieve a successful outcome for our clients.
