What Is Process Serving?

How Process Serving Works in Massachusetts
Massachusetts has a long-established framework for serving legal documents, rooted in early colonial legal traditions. Historically, sheriffs and constables were responsible for delivering court papers, and they remain key players in the process today.
Under Massachusetts law, many civil documents must be served by a sheriff or constable, though private process servers are frequently utilized when permitted by statute or court order. This dual system places a premium on accuracy, proper documentation, and adherence to procedural rules, especially when deadlines are tight.
Experienced process servers like those at Same Day ensure every step of serving is completed lawfully, reducing the risk of delays, rejected filings, or contested service. When accuracy and speed matter, send your job today and let our team handle the service with confidence.
