Return of Service

Florida Service of Process involves the utilization of a licensed individual to deliver and "serve" legal documents. The licensed Process Server is required to draft a sworn statement  stating all the facts of the perfected service. The sworn statement is called a "Return of Service" because it need not be notarized if the Process Server is licensed either through appointment by the Sheriff's Office or Certified by a Court Judge. All licensed Process Servers are only allowed to serve non-enforceable civil process and can also serve civil and criminal subpoenas.

Interestingly, Florida Process Servers who are experienced and professional are well aware of Florida Statutes also known as
Chapter 48 and the Federal Statutes when serving legal process. Many, if not all, seasoned process servers will always serve legal documents in accordance with the laws of the issuing jurisdiction. Therefore, as an example, a New York Attorney sending a Summons and Complaint to a Florida Process Server should make it clear the legal documents must be served under the governing New York Laws / statutes NOT Florida law. And, the sworn statement drafted by the Process Server MUST BE an Affidavit of Service, NOT a Return of Service because has to be notarized.

We are Private Process Servers who published this brief explanation as a public service. We hope the distinction made will  assist you with understanding what a Return of Service is. Again, a Return of Service, in Florida, need not be notarized if the person serving the documents is a licensed process server. If the sworn statement must be notarized it will be called an Affidavit of Service.
