HOW TO SERVE LEGAL PAPERS ON AN ATTORNEY IN DELAWARE

Written by Marcia B. | Feb 18, 2024 4:46:35 PM

In addition to serving process on the attorney or party, it is crucial to ensure that the delivery is done in a manner that complies with the rules and regulations set forth by the Delaware court system. This means that the document must be sent to the last known address of the attorney or party, and if that information is not available, it should be directed to the Clerk of the Court. When physically delivering a copy, it is essential to hand it directly to the attorney or party, or leave it with a designated individual at their office. If no one is present, the document should be left in a conspicuous location. In cases where the office is closed, or the individual to be served does not have an office, the document should be left at their residence or usual place of abode with a responsible adult.

Furthermore, when it comes to engaging in the discovery process or responding to discovery requests, it is imperative to file a "Notice of Service" with the Court. This notice serves as a record of the specific forms of discovery or responses that have been served on other counsel or opposing parties, including details such as the date and method of service. By adhering to these procedures, parties can ensure that their legal documents are served and responded to in a timely and appropriate manner.
