Using various techniques, honed from hunting down criminal offenders fleeing the law, our skip tracing services can be used to find the individual you are seeking.
What is a Process Server?
Perhaps the most effective and impacting way to effect service of an important document, is via process serving. A Process Server (sometimes referred to as a mercantile agent, commercial agent or field agent) is licensed and qualified to personally serve court documents and any other documents on other individuals or business entities.
Process Servers Sydney often do more than just serving documents. Our agents are also licensed and experienced private inquiry agents or private investigators. This provides great versatility in the services and techniques that they can execute.
As our team is constantly working with legal professionals, they are very familiar with the various jurisdictional requirements of the judicial system. As such we are readily prepared to present our findings and evidence in court proceedings.
What is an Affidavit?
An affidavit is an account of someone’s evidence or statement of facts in written form. An affidavit should only include relevant evidence. It is essentially a written version of oral testimony that may be given at hearing or trial in court.
An affidavit must be sworn or affirmed by the person providing the affidavit (known as the ‘deponent’) and witnessed by (signed in the presence of) a qualified witness, such as a Justice of the Peace (JPs) or a Solicitor. Our team has qualified JPs ready to ensure immediate actioning of the affidavits.
Our Sydney Field Agents provides you with affidavits upon successful service of documents. In circumstances where service is not achieved, our agent’s attempts to serve will be documented in accordance with legal evidentiary requirements.
We offer an affidavit of service for all your requirements, including:
- Letters of demand
- Concerns Notices pursuant to the Defamation Act 2005
- Stop and Desist Notices pursuant to the Peace and Good Behaviour Act 1982
- Statutory Demands pursuant to the Corporations Act 2001
Substitute Service
In situations where you are unable to serve the documents using an above method because the person is evading service, or you are unable to locate a current address, you may be able to apply for substituted service.
To be eligible for substituted service, you must prove that service, by the regular methods, is impractical in this particular scenario. You must also demonstrate that you have made reasonable efforts to serve the person. To prove this, you will need to show that you have made several attempts to effect service or locate the person. In these circumstances, Precision Integrity private investigators Sydney utilise our investigation experience to conduct extensive enquiries and searches which may include, but is not limited to:
property title searches
information brokers
telephone directory search
electoral roll searches
ASIC
searches
real estate databases
online digital footprints
Once we can show exhaustive attempts have been made to locate and personally serve the target, we can provide evidence to achieve substituted service. In this situation the court would allow us to use alternate means to execute service, which can be via email, fax, sms or even social media.
What Else can Field Agents do?
Our Sydney field agents can perform a multitude of tasks in addition to serving papers. If an organisation or individual needs to gain better insights into another party, our field agents can assist in verifying information around assets, the identification of persons, or the location of the other party.
For example, you may require confirmation of a residential or commercial address, or location and observation of an asset. You may need to report on the condition of homes or other property that may illustrate financial viability. Or you may require discrete enquiries be made of neighbours or other sources to support your client’s case.
