Canadian Process Serving Inc. provides reliable, professional process serving and legal document delivery services across Manitoba from our Winnipeg office. Our experienced process servers ensure your legal documents are served promptly and in compliance with Manitoba’s court rules.
Provincial Expertise
Our Manitoba process servers are experienced in handling all types of legal document service in accordance with provincial legislation. From our base in Winnipeg, we are equipped to handle serves throughout the capital region and coordinate service to other areas of the province as needed.
The “Zero Return” Standard: 5 Attempts Minimum
Most process servers try three times and quit. We do more. Our policy is a minimum of 5 attempts on different days and times (including evenings and weekends).
Why do we do this? Because returning a file as “Unserved” forces you to bring a motion for Substitutional Service. In Manitoba, this consumes valuable time and legal fees. We put in the extra work upfront to secure personal service whenever possible.
