Where you need us, when you need us.

Just an observation.

It is prefered by the court that when divorce papers are served by a Process Server that they (the Process Server) identify the respondant by a photograph usually provided by the applicant. (The one who wants the divorce).

When the applicant is the woman it is not unusual for them to provide a photograph which almost justifies it to themselves why they are divorcing their husband. The photograph in many cases will show a relaxed husband during a happier time. He is often half naked and sunburned and on a far away beach or at a night out and clutching a beer bottle with a mouthful of food and more ofen than not he has been caught unawares by the camera and has a rather gormless look about him because he's had no time to pose.





... and the difference between men and women is this

When the applicant is the husband he usually provides a photo where his wife is looking their absolute best. The Summer Ball, the Award Ceremony the Charity Gala etc. The wife has on her LBD or something she feels good in, her make-up is spot on and she's even had her hair done. He ultimately is saying that this is the woman I married and this is why I married her. Often this photo is 10 years old or more!



Occasionally and more disturbingly is the fact that with a disturbing frequency we get a wedding photograph torn in half and this can be from either side. When exibiting the photograph to the court with a sworn affidavit there is a cruel irony to it.

Whatever photo you wish to provide to your Process Server please make sure its a good likeness and as recent as possible.
