Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California

Re: Reason for ''motion to quash service of summons''

You will likely lose on such a Motion, especially since you were personally served.

Re: Reason for ''motion to quash service of summons''

Did you actually receive the summons or a "notice of summons via personal delivery." I don't know what the latter is. If the first, failure to leave a date blank is insufficient to contest service, especially since you have actual knowledge of the lawsuit. The registered process server's filing with the court creates a presumption that you were properly served.

You can object but will likely loose. What is the purpose in objecting? They can reserve, so why bother? Instead you may want to obtain concessions, etc.

This is just general information. No representations are made and no attorney client relationship is established by this communication. In most matters there are strict time limitations within which actions may be taken or your rights will be compromised. We are not taking any action on your matter and will not be considered your attorney or tax representative until both you and we have signed a fee agreement.

We, therefore will take no action on your behalf unless a written retainer agreement is signed. There are strict deadlines, called statutes of limitation, within which claims or lawsuits must be filed. Therefore, if you do not retain SELIKLAW, you should immediately seek the services of another attorney or other advisor.

If you send a lawyer or law firm email, your email will not create an attorney-client relationship and will not necessarily be treated as privileged or confidential. You should not send sensitive or confidential information via email. The lawyer or law firm to whom you are writing may not choose to accept you as a client. Moreover, as the Internet is not necessarily a secure environment it is possible that your email sent via the Internet might be intercepted and read by third parties.

Re: Reason for ''motion to quash service of summons''

Probably what you received was a summons and a proof of service. The proof of service is a document the process server fills out after she serves the summons documenting how, when and upon whom it was served. You received your copy before she had the information, which is why it was blank. There is nothing wrong with this and it will not support a motion to quash.
