Process
Service Network is one of a few firms that specializes in
international service of process and offers competitive rates on foreign
services. Here is a summary of the
methods available for service outside the United States and a specific proposal
for the requested nation. Our job is to cut through the bureaucracy and red tape to get the service completed with as little delay as possible. Since we have been in business for 29 years, we have developed close working relationships with key individuals in most countries throughout the world. The founder and President of Process Service Network was a Political Science major in college with a focus on international relations and is actively involved in a worldwide organization through which he has developed business and personal relationships in over 80 nations worldwide. FORMAL SERVICE: IRAN is not a signer of The Hague Service Convention. There is currently no formal method of service since IRAN does not honor Letters Rogatory. INFORMAL SERVICE:
Private process servers may serve documents in most countries, whether a
signer of The Hague Service Convention, or not.
Service is normally handled in a manner similar to methods used in the
United States, although completion of the service usually takes longer. Customs
and traditions in other countries tend to lead to a slower pace and less rigid
work habits. Service sometimes may take several months.
Most process servers who we employ are off-duty police officers or other
government officials who are able to, in certain cases, exercise their official
capacity to complete the service. Since we pay the process server a bonus (at
our own expense) for prompt service, the normal delays are usually reduced.
It
must be advised, however, that corruption is sometimes evident in that country
and that it is common for the process server to contrive an excuse for delays
and/or additional costs. We will
cover any additional costs but delays may be unavoidable. Further,
service in Iran has been complicated in the recent period due to tensions in the
Arab world. We do all that is
possible to insure a timely completion of the service. Advantage:
Time and cost. Disadvantage: Judgment may not be enforceable in the country where assets are
located. TRANSLATIONS:
Some countries require the documents to be translated into the official
language of the nation where they are to be served.
The U.S. State Department recommends translation, but it is not a
requirement unless the formal method is used.
It is possible, although rare, that a demurer could be filed based upon
lack of understanding by the defendant as to the nature and meaning of
un-translated documents. It is important that the Defendant understand the nature of
the documents. COSTS: Service of process: Informal = $1775.00
All
fess are per defendant/address
Translation:
$0.38 per word (proper
nouns not translated) Farsi
is official language NOTE:
WE PROVIDE formal declarations on the status of service upon request, as
required by your court, at no additional charge.
We subscribe to the U.S. Department of State weekly up-dates on
international service of process and the Central Intelligence Agency briefings
on social conditions abroad and monitor
problems in nations that might affect the completion of the service. Estimated
time for completion of service is subject to change depending on current
conditions. WARNING:
Beware of companies that quote suspiciously low rates.
They often come back later with an excuse for an additional charge. Our rates are firm for one address quoted.
Other companies are actually brokerage firms or website developers, not
process service agencies, who farm out assignments to companies that are not
knowledgeable or qualified on international service of process. DISCLAIMER:
The information contained herein is provided for general information
only and may not be accurate at the time of service in a particular case or
country. Questions involving
specific services should be directed to our office.
Care should be exercised in choosing the method of service
(formal/informal) if eventual enforcement of a U.S. judgment is anticipated in
the country where the documents are to be served. No legal advice is intended in the statements contained
herein. Assignments for
international service of process are accepted on the basis that the assigning
law firm has researched all applicable laws.
Process Service Network and its agents assume no liability for its
actions in the course of any phase of the service of process assignment. Terms
and conditions of international service of process are found on our website. |
