Trusted by the United States Department of Justice

Under an exclusive contract with the United States Department of Justice since 2003, ABC Legal performs service-related activities on behalf of the U.S. Central Authority for serving private individuals and companies within the United States.

We are authorized to act on behalf of the U.S. Central Authority as the only recognized service of process provider that can receive requests for service through diplomatic channels for both civil or commercial matters submitted pursuant to the:

• Hague Service Convention
• Inter-American Convention
• Letters Rogatory

For requests sent pursuant to the Hague Service Convention and through diplomatic channels, ABC Legal acts on behalf of the U.S. Central Authority for incoming service requests only. 

Outgoing requests for service in foreign countries do not need to be processed by ABC Legal. However, we can process your incoming and outgoing requests for service pursuant to the Inter-American Convention.

We understand the added procedures that must be followed under international conventions and service of process regulations.
