Legal Requirements for Serving Court Papers in Kenya
Serving court papers in Kenya is governed by specific legal frameworks designed to ensure fairness and due process. The Civil Procedure Act (Cap 21) and the Civil Procedure Rules are primary sources dictating how documents must be served. This includes rules on personal service, service on companies (as outlined in Order 29 of the Civil Procedure Rules), and substituted service when personal service is not feasible. Our process servers are trained to meticulously follow these rules, ensuring that service is effected on the correct individual or entity, at the correct address, and in the prescribed manner. Compliance with regulations set by the Judicial Service Commission and adherence to court orders regarding service are fundamental to our operations, preventing potential challenges to the validity of the service later on.
