Liberty Mutual Insurance (“Liberty”) has a centralized department for processing non-party / third-party subpoenas issued under open and active litigation and served on Liberty’s domestic affiliates. This department works under the supervision of Company attorneys to review and enforce service of process compliance, collaborate and cooperate with key internal and external stakeholders, refer to specialty departments for handling or review and respond depending on the nature of the request and the business segment involved.
Service of Process
Liberty requires that service of process be made in full compliance with applicable law and state DOI guidelines and will not accept service of process by any means not specifically authorized. Improperly served subpoenas will be rejected and you will be notified via correspondence which will include service of process instructions for your jurisdiction.
In many states, Corporation Service Company is Liberty’s designated Registered Agent, but we encourage you to reach out to your state’s DOI for accurate and up-to-date service of process information. If you still have questions regarding service of process, please reach out to subpin@libertymutual.com and provide the state that has jurisdiction over the litigation under which you are issuing your request.
In addition to service of process, it is imperative that your subpoena conform to federal, state and local guidelines. This could include, but is not limited to: complete and accurate case caption, case number, dates, signatures and notice to opposing parties.
Scope of Request Recommendations
Vague requests or incorrect information may result in limited responses based on good faith interpretation of scope or require additional research which may delay timely production of a response. For efficient processing, we recommend including the following in your request:
