DIVORCE AND FAMILY LAW SERVICE

IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS
There is no better way to effect service of an important document than by a Process Server. If serving a corporation, be aware that the Courts have held that delivery by registered post of a letter or notice addressed to the registered office of a corporation may not be deemed service on the registered office. We offer an affidavit of service for the following:
- 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
