rs=w_1240,h_620,cg_true (3)

In legal proceedings, ensuring proper service of documents is crucial to maintaining due process. When personal service upon a natural person cannot be made directly to the individual or to another suitable person, alternative methods must be employed. One such method is affixing the summons to the door of the individual's place of business, dwelling place, or usual place of abode. At TPS, The Process Server, we are committed to executing these alternative service methods with precision and compliance.

Understanding Alternative Methods of Personal Service

When traditional methods of personal service are not possible, the law allows for alternative methods to ensure that the individual is notified of the legal action. Affixing the summons to the door is one such method, used when other means are exhausted.

Steps for Affixing the Summons

Exhaustion of Other Methods

Before resorting to affixing the summons, efforts must be made to serve the individual directly or through another suitable person as directed by law.

Location for Affixing

The summons should be affixed to the door of the actual place of business, dwelling place, or usual place of abode of the person to be served.

Documentation

Detailed documentation of the service attempt, including date, time, and location, is essential for legal validation.

Benefits of Affixing the Summons

Ensures Notification

Even when direct service is not possible, affixing the summons ensures that the individual is notified of the legal action.

Maintains Legal Process

This method ensures that the legal process can continue without undue delay due to difficulties in serving the individual directly.

Affixing the summons is a legally recognized method when other service attempts have failed, ensuring compliance with legal standards.
