Really first class service and provided me with some vital information I needed at a really fast speed. Excellent communication with me and a personal service too. 
Louise, 4 July 
Gobsmacked. I couldnt divorce and re-marry without tons of hassle due to a missing ex. I spent over a decade searching. Within just a few hours I learned the (sad) news he had passed away years ago. Whilst this was of course quite a shock, CCS saved me hundreds of pounds and resolved my enquiry. Sad story but due to CCS - a happy ending. 
Charlie, 9 March 
Top notch service. Traced a witness and had the results back to me on the same day. I will definitely be using CCS in the future!

Benin Process Server FAQs 

What is the cost to serve documents in Benin? 

The cost for serving documents will depend on the location of the subject and the urgency needed. CCS will provide you with a quotation for a fixed fee for all servings. 

How long does it take for documents to be served in Benin? 

The time it takes to serve documents in court depends on the method of service and the subjects location. Once instructed we will aim to serve the documents as soon as possible and will keep you updated with progress at all times. 

How does a process server prove service? 

Once the process server has served the documents, they complete a proof of service. This can take the form of a certificate, or a statement, or an affidavit (a sworn statement). 

What happens if someone refuses to be served? 

If an individual refuses to accept legal documents being served, the process server can still effect service by informing the recipient of the document's nature and leaving it nearby. If personal service is impossible, alternative methods like post, email, or social media might be used, but these usually require court permission.
