Family law matters are sensitive and time-critical. Using a professional process server ensures documents are served correctly, reducing the risk of delays or dismissal of your matter.
Family law matters — divorce, property settlement, parenting orders, AVOs — are among the most sensitive and emotionally charged legal proceedings. Using a professional process server to serve family law documents offers significant advantages.
Attempting to serve your former partner yourself can be emotionally difficult and may lead to confrontation. A professional process server provides a neutral third party to effect service, reducing the risk of conflict.
Family law documents must be served in strict accordance with the Family Law Rules 2004 and the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Family Law) Rules 2021. A professional process server understands these requirements and will ensure service is effected correctly.
The Family Court requires a sworn Affidavit of Service before proceedings can continue. Citiserve provides detailed, court-compliant affidavits with every serve.
In family law matters, the respondent may be hostile, uncooperative, or deliberately evading service. Citiserve's experienced process servers know how to handle these situations professionally and safely.
If the respondent has moved or cannot be located, Citiserve's skip tracing service can assist in finding them so that service can be effected.
Citiserve has agents in all capital cities and regional centres. If your former partner has moved interstate, we can still serve them.
