Boston Methods of Service
The method of service that’s best for you will depend greatly on your specific case and its needs. Boston offers several methods you might need
Personal service: When someone who is not a party to the case hand-delivers documents to the other side
Service by mail: When someone who is not a party to the case mails documents to the other side
Substituted service: After failed attempts to serve the papers, the process server can then leave the papers with someone else at the party’s residence or serve by another legal method
Service by posting on the premises and mailing (for eviction cases only): Sometimes called “nail and mail,” this is when you post a notice on the premises
Service by publication: When you publish the summons and complaint in a newspaper (this is usually for when you do not know where the other party lives or works)
Who to Serve and Where
If you’re serving an individual, then that’s the person who will need to be served the papers. But if you’re serving a corporation or company, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts itself, another government agency, or a town or municipality, there are specific rules you should adhere to, which you can read more about here.
Process Server Rules in Boston
In Boston, service of process can only be performed by a sheriff, constable, court-appointed person, or any other person authorized by law. The summons and a copy of the complaint must be served together.
