The Legal Education Society of Alberta (LESA) has created some of the following regulated forms for the convenience of lawyers who may wish to have editable versions of the court forms prescribed by the new Alberta Rules of Court. LESA has generously agreed to permit the posting of the MS Word version provided here.
For most users in most instances, the PDF versions of the forms available from the Alberta Courts website may be easier to work with than the MS Word versions. However, lawyers who wish to customize forms may find the MS Word versions more suitable for that purpose.

Service is generally done in person, but if that is impossible, you may be able to ask for a Substitutional Service Order which would allow you to serve by email, registered mail or to another person closely connected to the person you want to serve. Contact the Court to find out how to do this.
After this is completed you must file an Affidavit of Service with the courts to swear to the fact that the document has been served. Follow the procedure for locating forms on this guide to find an Affidavit of Service.
If someone else serves the document for you they must fill out the Affidavit of Service and have it commissioned by the courthouse staff or information coordinators. They will need to bring picture ID with them when they do this.
If you served by mail, email or fax, you will need to show proof of service. To do this you will need a printout of the Canada Post tracking information, a printout from your sent email or a fax receipt.
