Service We Provide
Serving documents on a party located outside the United States means navigating a different set of rules — the Hague Service Convention for member countries, or diplomatic Letters Rogatory for those that aren't. We handle both routes and everything in between.
Serving a party outside the United States isn't a simple international mail job — it involves choosing between Hague Central Authority routing, diplomatic Letters Rogatory, or private in-country agents, depending on the destination country's laws and treaty status.
We manage that decision and the paperwork it requires, including translation coordination where a country demands it, and we track every request through to a returned certificate of service or notarized affidavit.
Whatever the document, our team has the experience to execute your specific request and route it through the right channel the first time.
Decades of working relationships with Central Authorities and local agents mean your documents move through the correct process, wherever they're headed.
Since 1982, we've built a track record litigators rely on — documented, court-ready service performed to FRCP 4(f) standards.

Client Feedback
"Serving an elusive corporate executive across three overseas offices seemed impossible under our court deadline. The Global Process Server coordinated in-country agents and produced an airtight affidavit of service that defeated opposing counsel's motion to quash."
