The Brockton Civil Process office of the Plymouth County Sheriff's department is benefiting citizens, the legal community and police departments across the county.

The Sheriff's Civil process Division serves more than 25,000 legal documents annually, mostly to parties in civil lawsuits. Fees paid by attorneys and plaintiffs fund the division's entire operation, resulting in zero cost to taxpayers. In years when revenues exceed expenses, surplus funds are distributed to county police agencies in the form of grants.

The legal community can rely on the qualified and experienced staff at the division. A variety of services are available including attachment, execution and seizure of vehicles. Massachusetts Bar Association members receive 30 days of credit.

The legal community and citizens can utilize the Civil Process Division to serve summons, warrants and a variety of legal documents. Among these are...

	Landlord - tenant disputes
	Divorce proceedings and child support warrants
	Real estate attachments and seizures
	Sheriff sales of personal property
	Subpoena of witnesses
