Automate civil process service in a streamlined environment.

Civil papers, executions, distress warrants, and foreclosures are managed in a single organized system.

An intuitive wizard guides users through the steps involved in entering new civil processes.

name file

Efficient data entry - Known data such as names, addresses, and telephone numbers are automatically populated into civil process records.

Cloning - Speed data entry when a stack of similar civil processes is received by cloning one and re-entering only the data that has changed.

Multiple civil paper types can be recorded in one civil paper record, and the list of paper types is agency-configurable.

Unlimited names such as plaintiffs, defendants, received from, and "serve on” parties can be entered on a civil process record.

case types

Deadlines for civil process service are automatically calculated, and users can easily access a list of civil processes about to expire to prioritize order of service.

The main display lists key details at a glance, allowing agencies to monitor balances, stay attuned to pending expiration dates, and easily search for any civil process by data elements such as date, number, full or partial names, status, balance, and more.

Log multiple attempts to serve a civil process, including outcome, comments, mileage, and more.

An automatically generated audit trail tracks all activity related to the service of each civil process.

Create custom sheriff’s returns--as many return types as needed for each type of civil process and manner of service. When a civil process is successfully served or marked as unservable, the system automatically generates the appropriate return.

Professional-looking printouts of sheriff’s returns, notices, and other letters are easily generated and ready to mail.

financial invoice

Tight integration with Zuercher Financial allows agencies to track the financial side of civil process service from beginning to end.

Invoices are generated instantly with the creation of each new civil process; configure standard fee types and amounts to be automatically added depending on the type of civil process. Fees can also be set for automatic addition upon the successful completion of a civil process, or automatically removed if the civil process is returned as unservable.

Record payments with just a few clicks.

Generate receipts and customer statements. The process is easy, and the printouts--designed to show the customer’s name and address in a standard window envelope--are ready to mail.

Links to related records allow agencies to track civil process funds from an invoice to a payment receipt to a deposit to a disbursement to see where every penny is at any given moment.

Automatic calculation of interest, commissions, and mileage charges saves time and guesswork and eliminates error.
