Legally trained oversight
Our team reviews the recipient type, applicable Ontario requirements, documents, and deadline before the assignment is dispatched.
ONTARIO · CANADA
Windsor sits across the river from Detroit, which makes it our busiest cross-border service hub. We file Superior Court civil and family work at the Justice Facility at 245 Windsor Avenue, and Ontario Court of Justice criminal and youth matters at 200 Chatham Street East a few blocks away. Our agents cover downtown Windsor, Walkerville, Riverside, Sandwich, and out across Essex County to Tecumseh, LaSalle, Amherstburg, and Lakeshore, with cross-border coordination running daily over the Ambassador Bridge and the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel.

Why PCA
We don't.
Some process servers attract clients with a low initial quote, only to add charges for mileage, additional attempts, commissioning, administration, and other unexpected expenses. PCA provides a clear, flat-rate price before service begins. You know what is included and what the file will cost—no hidden fees and no surprises.
In most jurisdictions, process servers do not need a special licence. Almost anyone can take your documents and attempt service. The real risk often becomes apparent afterwards, when you need that person to prepare a complete and accurate affidavit or other proof of service.
Every assignment can involve different court rules, specific service requirements, important documents, and multiple exhibits. If the method of service or affidavit does not properly address those details, the court will reject the filing. That can delay the proceeding, increase costs, and require service to be completed again—with no guarantee the same server will get it right the second time.
PCA removes that uncertainty. Our team reviews the requirements, manages the service, and prepares or reviews the resulting proof. Your complete price and scope are confirmed before work begins.
Clear pricing. Proper service. Reliable proof. Let us show you why PCA is the first choice for professional process serving.
Our team reviews the recipient type, applicable Ontario requirements, documents, and deadline before the assignment is dispatched.
PCA drafts or reviews the affidavit and arranges commissioning where applicable. Law firms are not asked to prepare our proof or spend billable time correcting incomplete work.
The standard scope is confirmed before work begins, with meaningful updates and no hidden ordinary-attempt or travel charges.
The same accountable team coordinates related defendants, surrounding municipalities, rural addresses, and other service locations throughout Ontario.

We coordinate assignments across Windsor and nearby communities. We confirm a transparent flat-rate quote based on the exact address, timing, and service requirements before the file proceeds.
Local Service Context
We file most of our Windsor civil and family work at the Superior Court Justice Facility at 245 Windsor Avenue, with criminal and youth matters routing to the Ontario Court of Justice at 200 Chatham Street East. Splitting the work across two buildings is the local reality — files with both Superior and OCJ pieces need two stops, which we batch onto the same dispatch rather than charging counsel for two trips. Our paralegals and law-student agents draft the affidavit and assemble the package before dispatch, which is why filings clear the counter on the first pass rather than bouncing back for redrafting. The cross-border layer is what makes Windsor distinct. Family files routinely involve assets, addresses, or respondents in Michigan, so we coordinate with Michigan-side servers before the run instead of treating cross-border work as a follow-up. Auto-sector employment, supply-chain commercial disputes, and University of Windsor law school–adjacent counsel work all push volume through both courthouses. Essex County's surrounding agricultural belt — Leamington, Kingsville, the tomato and greenhouse corridor — adds rural-service planning to a meaningful share of the docket.
Documents We Handle
Law firms use us to save the time normally spent finding servers, giving instructions, chasing updates, and correcting incomplete proof of service. Self-represented litigants receive a clear, responsive process with the price confirmed before work begins.
Additional Court Support
The large majority of our files are process-serving assignments. Court filing and physical court-file scanning can be coordinated through the same team, so the client does not need to manage multiple vendors for one proceeding.
Primary Service
We review the applicable requirements, coordinate the service attempts, provide regular updates, and draft and review the supporting affidavit internally. Flat-rate pricing keeps the assignment simple to approve and budget.
We can arrange physical filing or lodgement at the relevant court registry and return the available confirmation, subject to the court's filing rules and applicable fees.
A court agent can attend the courthouse, access available physical records, and create digital copies in accordance with court-access rules, file availability, and applicable fees.
One-stop file support
Address searches can be coordinated when the recipient's location is uncertain.
We coordinate the required oath, commissioning, or notarization step for completion materials.
Proof of service is drafted and reviewed internally because errors can delay the proceeding.
Cross-border and Hague Convention files can be managed through the same accountable team.
Built for every client
Send the file once and reclaim the administrative time normally spent locating an agent, giving instructions, chasing attempts, arranging courthouse work, and correcting proof of service. We provide one accountable contact and regular updates throughout the assignment in Windsor.
Formal service can feel unfamiliar and high-stakes. We explain our service process clearly, confirm a fair price before work begins, coordinate the assignment, and return organized proof of service so you are not left trying to manage multiple providers alone.
