MAAPPS has a more local focus. Issues that effect the legal support industry here in the Metro Washington area, court rules and regulations as well as public relations are only few concerns that MAAPPS has addressed since its founding. The CEO of the Carter Corporation Inc., Dr. R.D. Carter, Jr., will offer his expertise of some 45 plus years in the legal support business to MAAPPS  in the form of ongoing training.

SERVICE OF PROCESS

Service of subpoenas, summons and complaints to defendants and others must be accomplished with speed and efficiency.  Affidavits of service are provided for clients outside the Washington Metro Area to file with their local Clerk of the Court.  Affidavits provide information on what was served, case number, date, time and detailed description of the person served.  Clients within the Washington Metro Area are provided with a file stamped copy of the affidavit, if the case originates from DC Superior Court and/or U.S. District Court.

SKIP TRACING

Using database systems that track defendant's locations, the Corporation locates many individuals who have moved away from a last known address.  Although information obtained from electronic means is reliable, in most cases it needs to be verified by having agents make direct contact.  Contact based on information provided can verify and/or provide new information needed in the Skip Trace process.
