Tools Of The Trade

Even the most basic mobile device with a free camera app can be an enormously powerful tool.

Documenting your travels: A camera with GPS can be used to document your travels. You can use the GPS data to create a map of your travels, or to track your progress along a specific route. This can be helpful for tracking mileage, planning future trips, or for sharing your travels with others.

Identify locations in your photos: If you're ever not sure where you took a photo, the GPS data can be useful for finding your way back to a particular spot or for identifying the location of a photo.

Eliminate "Sewer Service"

In 2019 a Florida Process Server was FIRED for falsely reporting Service of Legal Process because diligent homeowners with home video camera footage were able to demonstrate that the Process Server wasn't where they said they were.

Fight Photos With Photos

Use photos as evidence: If you need to prove that you were somewhere at a certain time, the GPS data in your photos can be used as evidence. This could be useful in legal cases or in insurance claims.

We provide GPS date & time stamped photos with each attempt to Serve legal documents.

Document activity at an address: When multiple attempts are required, we document any subtle signs of life that may occur from one trip to the next.

We also take careful note of any home security systems and identify ourselves (hold the folder with the paperwork up to the camera where it can be seen).

Accidents Will Happen
