In our industry there is a “HUGE” amount of fly-by-night operations that are here today and gone tomorrow. Ask yourself what your ‘peace of mind’ is worth. Also ask yourself what it means to know that you can trust a company 100% and know that the affidavit you receive is worth the paper it is written on. There is a good reason why we have been in business for 35 years: TRUST.Our process servers are retired peace officers recruited from the ranks of City, Provincial, and RCMP forces. Over the years we’ve acquired a solid reputation among the North American legal community for accomplishing difficult services: we’ve served celebrities, political figures, and individuals who have evaded other companies. We have been in business since 1983 and include the nation’s top law firms in our list of regular clients.After 35 years in business, we are at our highest number of corporate offices, resulting in the greatest amount of coverage and lowest bill totals ever.
