SERVICE OF PROCESS - Miami, Florida has one of the highest insurance rates in the country, due in part because of all the litigation costs arising from vehicular accidents, weather damage and other various disputes.  Miami-Dade County, Florida is considered one of the most unfair places in the United States when it comes to how fair and reasonable businesses are treated in the legal system. Allowing citizens to use a legal system to resolve conflicts has been a crucial component of modern society.  Ancient Greeks used juries of people to decide who was guilty and how a defendant should be punished.  Seem familiar?  Americans have embraced the legal system (probably too much) and in the United States a new lawsuit is filed every 2 seconds. 

Actual and proper service of process varies from State to State but basically it is the process of a sheriff or a private process service(who is authorized by law, over the age of 18, with no interest in the action between the parties) hand delivering legal documents including a summons to the party being sued.  There are additional laws in Miami-Dade County which allow for service of process to someone other than the party being sued (for example: the spouse of the person being sued, an employee of the company when a corporate officer is not available).  Regardless of which method of service of process is used, the most important component, afforded by due process answers the following question in the affirmative: Is it fair and reasonable to believe the person being sued is aware of the lawsuit filed and had an equitable opportunity to defend their /its position?  When it comes to due process, Miami-Dade County has some unique obstacles.  On Time Legal Services is adept at overcoming a variety of these challenges to ensure service of process, ensuring the parties are served and protecting due process rights.

Miami-Dade County is a mecca of international activity.  In 2012 the total value of International Commerce was 69.8 Billion dollars. Even though “mobility” is usually considered a positive word, people with higher incomes tend to move less.   As a result of these factors and several others, Miami-Dade County makes service a process more difficult than in other cities.
