Why do I need this bond?

Being bonded means protecting people from any unjust business practices or fraud conducted by registered agents in the state of New York. This specific bond type assures that if consumers are wronged, they have a safeguard from unprofessional acts of business and can be compensated for any potential losses they may face. Responsibilities of process serving agencies include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Complying with all local, state and federal laws applicable to process serving agencies
  • Claiming responsibility for failure to act in accordance with process serving agency rules and regulations
  • Providing a written statement that indicates rights to each process server employed by the principal’s agency
  • Keep appropriate records and documents for a period of 3 years at the principal place of business

If the principal (process serving agency) violates the terms of his or her bond agreement and a consumer is harmed as a result, the surety will pay for all damages up to the full bond amount.

What’s the fine print?

The applicant is required to remain in compliance with all terms stated on the bond form. As long as obligations are met according to code, the bond will remain in full force and effect. If the principal or the surety chooses to cancel the bond before the date of expiration, a 60-day written notice prior to cancellation must be submitted and filed with the Department of Consumer Affairs.
