Private Individuals
Please complete this form if you are a private individual or company requiring service. Law firms and legal services firms can email us directly or use our request form for law firms and businesses instead.
Please ensure you've read the terms of service and pricing below before completing the form. We are not able to accept orders or provide quotes to private individuals until the intake form has been completed.
Terms of service
- We require a $200 retainer before we attempt service. The retainer can be sent by e-transfer to alex.legnini@frontenaclegal.com.
- Attach the documents you need served to this form. If they are too large to attach, or you would rather send originals, you can mail them to us or contact us to arrange a pickup. Our administrative office does not provide walk-in service. Documents may be sent by mail or email.
- Our staff is not able to provide legal advice with respect to completing court forms or legal rules and processes (court staff can assist you with these). It is the client's responsibility to ensure that the documents they provide are complete, accurate, issued (if necessary) and to provide accurate instructions. You must ensure that the files you send us are all of the documents that you need served. We will not check this for you. If you aren't sure, check with the court or consult a lawyer.
- Though we make our best effort to serve all documents, service is not guaranteed. Expect the process of serving and returning the documents to take a few weeks. If you require rush service be sure to contact our office beforehand to make sure someone will be available.
- We reserve the right to close any file in which we feel the client is acting in an unprofessional manner. The client will be responsible for all fees up to that date.
- By using our services you agree to these terms and conditions.
