Legal Visit Process Server Prison
If you require documents to be served upon individuals currently serving within His Majesty’s Prison, it is important that you instruct a professional agent with experience in undertaking Legal Visits.
We are regularly instructed to serve legal process upon individuals who are serving within the HMP Service and/or Police Custody. In these circumstances, a legal visit is required in order to attend the Prison and to meet with the individual as a Legal Visitor.
Although attending a legal visit is straightforward, quite often these visits can take a considerable time, especially when there are issues at the prison that may delay the appointment time or the process server in leaving.
On average, the process of attending a legal visit will range between 1 and 3 hours.
The request for the visit can take up to three weeks.
Important Information About Service In Prisons
Prison visits become booked very quickly, we recommend instructing us sooner than later as there may be a delay up to three weeks or more before the prison authorises the visit.
The legal visits office may not be aware of the individual’s release date or that they may have been transferred before the appointment time, so it is always worth being prepared for these situations.
An individual can refuse to attend the arranged legal visit even if a process server is already at the prison. If that were to happen it would not be possible to continue with a personal service at that time and further arrangements would need to be made such as posting the papers to prison.
Required Information (For Legal Visit)
If you require papers to be served upon a serving inmate in England and Wales, please contact us so that we can advise as to the likely time frame and fee for service. We would require:
- The individual’s full name
- Current prison
- Prison number
- Date of birth
