IS YOUR CURRENT PROCESS SERVER A TRUE STATUTORY DEMAND EXPERT?
Serving a statutory demand is a critical legal step, not a simple delivery job. The risks of using a generalist are too high: failed attempts, incorrect service, and weak reporting that can lead to costly delays or a demand being set aside.
You need a specialist partner who, through a decade of experience, has mastered the distinct procedures for serving:
-
Individuals: Understanding what constitutes valid 'personal service' and the diligent steps required when a debtor is evasive.
-
Companies: Knowing the precise requirements for service at a Registered Office address as per the Companies Act 2006, especially when faced with virtual offices or non-trading premises.
-
Both: Providing a meticulously detailed Certificate of Service that is unambiguous and will withstand legal scrutiny.
GENERALISTS DELIVER DOCUMENTS.
SPECIALISTS DELIVER LEGALLY ROBUST OUTCOMES.
THAT IS THE TRACENET LEGAL SERVICES DIFFERENCE.
THE TRACENET LEGAL SERVICES GUARANTEE : SPEED, COMPLIANCE AND CERTAINTY
We have engineered our service around the three distinct disciplines of serving statutory demands. When you instruct Tracenet Legal Services, you are investing in certainty.
Unmatched Speed & Diligence
Time is always critical. We aim to attempt service within 24 hours of receiving your instructions. For individuals, this means commencing our diligent attempts at service promptly. For companies, this means attending the registered office during business hours to ensure a valid serve.
Guaranteed Compliance
Our deep expertise and understanding of the Insolvency Rules and CPR Part 6 protects you from procedural errors. We conduct every service ethically and professionally, strictly adhering to the different legal protocols for serving individuals and corporate entities.
Watertight Reporting
You will receive a clear, concise, and court-compliant Certificate or Statement of Service promptly upon completion. Our reports are meticulously detailed, providing the undeniable evidence you need to proceed with confidence.
TRUSTED BY PROFESSIONALS YOU RESPECT
SERVICE UPON INDIVIDUALS & COMPANIES
We follow a tailored process based on the subject of your demand.
Serving a Statutory Demand on an Individual
This requires persistence and diligence. Our fixed fee is structured to ensure the best possible chance of success.
-
Process: We make up to three separate and diligent attempts at service at the address. These are strategically timed across different times of day (including evenings or weekends) to maximise the chance of finding the person at home. These include discreet enquiries with neighbours to help confirm the debtor's residence at the address for service, along with the delivery of a letter of appointment if applicable.
-
Outcome: We will either achieve personal service and provide a Certificate of Service, or if the individual is evasive, we will provide a detailed witness statement of our attempts to support your application for substituted service.
Serving a Statutory Demand on a Company
This requires precision, thoroughness, and an understanding of corporate law.
-
Process: Our service begins by verifying that the registered office address is active via Companies House. We then undertake one dedicated attempt at service during normal business hours. If we cannot meet personally with a director or other authorised person, we execute a comprehensive service procedure:
-
A copy of the demand is securely left in the main reception area, if available.
-
Further copies are deposited into any available mailboxes for the company.
-
Consideration is given to affixing a further copy, enclosed in a sealed, clear envelope, to a prominent part of the building, such as the main entrance door.
-
Outcome: We provide a Certificate of Service confirming the time, date, and detailing every action taken to bring the demand to the company's attention, giving you definitive proof of service.
SIMPLE, TRANSPARENT FIXED FEES
Our pricing is as clear as our reporting.
We offer a fixed fee for each type of service, with no hidden charges.
For Individuals: Our fixed fee includes all travel, administration, up to three diligent attempts at service, a letter of appointment if required, along with the necessary proof of service or attempted service.
For Companies: Our fixed fee includes all travel, administration, and our comprehensive, single attempt at service at the registered office along with the necessary proof of service.
No mileage fees. No unexpected costs. Just one single, upfront fee for a professional service from Tracenet Legal Services.
