Service Request

Complete all steps. Step 1: Select service and verify the service-destination postal code. Step 2: Upload documents and auto-count printing pages. Step 3: Review and pay.

Already have a paid File & Serve order? After all purchased attempts are exhausted without successful service, request one more attempt for the same job at a selected address already included in the paid order, in that address’s recorded city: $100 + HST ($113). A new city or address not included in the paid order uses a new request with automatic plan and travel calculation.

Step 1 — Select Options
Service Plan matched automatically to the verified destination
Local plans cover London and Sarnia, plus destinations within 25 km driving distance of either office. Addresses inside London or Sarnia remain eligible even beyond 25 km. Mileage beyond the first 25 km from the nearest office is calculated separately.

London/Sarnia travel calculator

Enter the postal code where the documents will be served. The system calculates driving distance automatically from the nearest File & Serve office: London or Sarnia.

First 25 km from nearest office free
Origins: London office — 714 York St, London, ON N5W 2S8; Sarnia office — 460 Christina Street North, Sarnia, ON. The first 25 km from the nearest office are included. For destinations beyond that zone, outbound and return billable kilometres are $0.85/km + HST.

Court filing & Court Runner

The $50 option is for ready-document filing bundled with a routine local process-serving order, within the same nearest-office area. A dedicated visit is $95 plus any verified court travel. Both cover one case, one court and one attendance. For an Ontario courthouse outside London/Sarnia and beyond 25 km from the nearest office, dedicated court travel is calculated automatically for outbound and return billable kilometres beyond the included 25 km zone at $0.85/km, once per court visit. It is shown separately from process-serving travel before payment. Archived-file, not-yet-ready record and multi-stage requests need an agreed custom quote.

After File & Serve carries out service, supply the completed, unsigned form for each named recipient if you choose commissioning only. A blank form is not sufficient. The actual process server must check the facts and swear or affirm before a different authorized commissioner. Preparation or corrections require a separately accepted upgrade; we do not assess legal sufficiency. These add-ons are for our own process-serving work only.

Affidavits are priced per named recipient, not per order

Our standard online service provides a separate affidavit for each named service recipient. The selected option applies to all listed recipients. Multiple pages, alternative addresses, visits or process servers do not increase this quantity. Contact the office before payment for a different or already agreed arrangement.

No affidavit add-on selected. Service Confirmation remains included.

    Step 2 — Upload Documents & Auto-Count Pages

    Upload documents for service & automatic printing

    Upload final documents supplied by you for printing and physical service. Any assembly is technical and follows your instructions; we do not draft or change legal content. Page count and printing fees are calculated automatically at $0.50 per page + HST before payment. One full document set is printed for each party, including every additional party.

    HST is added in the total below.
    Use this only if you want to restart the document list.
    No documents uploaded yet. Upload your documents to calculate printing before payment.
    Upload supported documents and wait for page count verification before payment.
        Step 3 — Contact Information & Terms
        Contact, service address, recipient, and instructions are required before payment so the Square payment, order record, document batch, and admin notification identify exactly who/where to serve.

        Service address preview

        Provide as much service-address detail as possible before payment. This information is saved with the paid request for admin review.

        Other possible addresses for the same recipient

        If the same person may be found at another address, add it here (up to four alternatives). Your purchased attempts are shared across all listed addresses: each visit to one address uses one attempt. Adding an address does not add an attempt, an additional-party fee or another printing charge.

        For one recipient, all listed addresses are priced online before payment. We verify each address from its nearest London or Sarnia office: the first 25 km are included, then outbound and return billable kilometres beyond that zone are $0.85/km. The highest verified travel charge is applied once to the whole order; charges are not added together or multiplied by attempts. If any address is outside the local plan area, the outside plan applies to the whole order ($85 for the first attempt, $100 per extra attempt, before HST). Several recipients at different addresses still require an agreed custom quote. The office coordinates the visit order; listing several addresses does not guarantee a visit to every address.

        Recipient / service instructions

        Required before payment. Do not guess after payment; tell us exactly who or what company must be served.

        Enter the exact recipient / party to be served and access or timing instructions. Type None if there are no special instructions.

        Terms & Service Agreement

        • Our document support is limited to printing and technically assembling final documents supplied by the client, administrative delivery and filing where accepted, authorized document collection, and factual service records for process serving performed by File & Serve. We do not select court forms, draft pleadings or motions, review legal sufficiency, provide legal advice or represent clients. Court acceptance is not guaranteed.
        • All requests are carried out according to the information and documents provided by the client. Uploaded documents are printed for physical service, and document accuracy and legality remain the client’s responsibility.
        • For process serving, the destination postal code is verified automatically. No mileage charge applies within the first 25 km from the nearest File & Serve office in London or Sarnia. For destinations beyond 25 km, outbound and return billable kilometres beyond the included zone are charged at $0.85 per km plus HST (13%), based on the server-calculated one-way driving distance from the nearest office to the service postal code.
        • Alternative addresses for one recipient share the purchased attempt allowance; each visit to one address uses one attempt. No extra address, party or printing fee applies solely for listing alternatives. For one recipient, round-trip travel is calculated for every address at $0.85/km for the outbound and return billable kilometres beyond the included 25 km zone from its nearest office. Only the highest verified travel charge is added once per order, with no per-address or per-attempt travel multiplier. If any address is outside the local plan area, the whole order uses the outside plan ($85 first attempt plus $100 per additional attempt, before HST). Several recipients at different addresses require an agreed quote before payment. The office coordinates attendance; not every listed address is guaranteed a visit.
        • Rush, special-service, travel, add-on, and printing charges are billed according to the selected options and uploaded page count. All listed prices are plus HST (13%).
        • Each process-serving plan includes a Service Confirmation / Proof of Service prepared from our service record at no additional charge.
        • For service carried out by File & Serve, choose no Affidavit of Service add-on, preparation from our server’s factual record plus independent commissioning ($25 + $25 = $50 + HST per affidavit), or commissioning alone ($25 + HST per affidavit) when you provide the complete, unsigned affidavit for this same service. The person who actually carried out the service must review and swear or affirm the facts before a different authorized commissioner. Commission-only does not include preparing or correcting your draft. Our standard online service charges for one separate affidavit per named service recipient; the selected option applies to all recipients. Pages, alternative addresses, visits and process servers do not multiply this quantity. Accepted quotes, paid orders and separately agreed arrangements retain their agreed scope and prices. No preparation-only or unrelated-document commissioning is offered through this checkout. We do not provide legal advice, select legal strategy, or complete unrelated court forms for clients.
        • If a paid affidavit step cannot be performed, we refund the amount charged for that step, including its HST. This does not change the service-plan deposit terms below.
        • Court Runner covers administrative counter work for one case and one attendance, with 60 minutes included ($95); bundled routine filing includes 30 minutes ($50). Eligible local court travel is included. Outside-area Ontario dedicated court travel is calculated automatically at $0.85/km for outbound and return billable kilometres beyond the included 25 km zone, once per court visit, and shown separately from process-serving travel before payment. Extra court attendance and waiting, if used, is $20 per started 15-minute block up to the selected cap, invoiced separately with no automatic card charge. Archived, not-yet-ready record and multi-stage work requires a custom quote. Court fees and other expenses require approval. Court acceptance or completion is not guaranteed.
        • Once a job is dispatched or any field attempt is made, deposits become non-refundable and cover coordination and attendance costs.
        • Clients must ensure that addresses, names, and service instructions are current and correct.
        • Submitting a request means you understand and accept our Service Terms and Privacy Policy.

        After successful payment, your service request, uploaded documents, travel calculation, and payment record are saved for File & Serve review.
