Process Servers are intended as a messenger system to notify individuals of their right to due process of law by “serving” them with a notification that states the legal issue that specifically involves them. Originally, legal papers were typically served to individuals by the local Sheriff or Bailiff. As cases expanded in the province, it became a challenging endeavor for local authorities to disperse court papers while attending to legal situations in their jurisdiction. There was a desire for a private system to deliver these papers legally and in a timely manner; for that reason, process servers were developed.

Service of process is the procedure by which a party to a lawsuit gives an appropriate notice of initial legal action to another party, court, or administrative body in an effort to exercise jurisdiction over that person so as to force that person to respond to the proceeding before the court, body, or other tribunal.
