Don’t shoot the messenger, but you do not have to invite him in for tea either. A process server is there on business; it is neither social nor emotional. He is there to deliver a notice so you may be informed of legal actions against you. The better informed you are, the better able you are to act.
Sir Francis Bacon was admitted to the Bar in 1582. He was a judge and Lord Chancellor. He believed in collecting facts then drawing theories from them, an inductive approach we call scientific method. He coined the phrase, “Knowledge is power.”
A process server brings the facts to you, saves you the trouble of looking up on public record what you are in for. It is a personalized delivery in an age where house calls have fallen out of common courtesy and professionalism.
Knowledge is power, and a process server delivers the knowledge. You have the power to react. Seek qualified legal counsel for a full education as to what your options are, and empower yourself to make informed decisions.
