For TV and Film Makers Process Service Is a Place in Outer Space

Judging by what has been publicized about the legal process service industry by films such as Serving Sara and T.V. shows such as Worked Up, legal process serving has been badly categorized, poorly depicted and vilified at best by attention seeking film makers and producers in Hollywood who have no idea about how the industry functions.

I have watched the film Serving Sara, a romantic comedy about a process server who falls in love with the recipient of a divorce summons, and I wonder where do the Hollywood producers get the ideas to make films like this. It appears that the consultant who guided the director to portray the process server serving papers had no idea how the business of process serving works. Indeed you will see the main star, a male process server, who has no other choice in life but to be a process server, making idiotic senseless maneuvers in order to serve papers on evasive defendants. Sara turns out to be another elusive defendant too who at the end falls in love with the server.

On TV, I have watched another process server in New York City on a new reality show called Worked Up, doing everything possible in order to get assaulted, attacked or berated by the people he intends to serve. This NY process server even gets locked up at a building roof top allegedly while attempting to serve a slum landlord. While serving process in Queens, NY, he is shown arguing with a child support respondent whose dog he had fed in order to avoid an attack. How stupid can producers be? I wonder how many viewers will regard process service after taking a look at Worked Up.

For those who have not been process servers and who enjoy the above shows, I must inform you the truth behind the industry. First of all process servers in New York and any other place in United States are trained to avoid confrontation. There is very little talk between defendants and the person serving legal papers. In fact smart process servers tend to only the required basic information from the persons served: Name, military status, age, position and place of abode. So the process server will quietly and politely just ask a few questions and leave the scene ASAP. If the respondent does not answer, the process server will still leave. There is no such thing as a process server running after people who need to be served. That does not work in this industry! If the process server meets an evasive defendant who chooses to argue or to run, the process server must not reciprocate. For elusive recipients, the process servers must just drop the court papers within the Defendant's reach and LEAVE.

In summary the TV and film depictions of process servers doing unusual efforts to serve evasive or loud respondents are simply not a reflection of reality. Those antics are a far cry from what they taught me at www.subpoenadelivery.com. So don't believe everything you see in the Big Screen or the Little Screen.
