01 / AUTHORITY
The Instruction Must Have a Lawful Basis
A client's request alone does not create enforcement authority. The relevant court document, legal process or other proper authority must support the action requested.
Professional Support Services
Bailiff Services.
Professional bailiff support for attorneys, businesses, property interests and other authorised clients requiring lawful, properly documented assistance with court-related and enforcement-related processes within the scope of the applicable authority.
Professional Handling • Documented Process Support
Understanding the Service
Professional Support for Lawful Court-Related Processes.
Bailiff work involves carrying out authorised duties connected to legal or court processes. The exact action that may lawfully be undertaken depends on the document, order, instruction, jurisdiction and authority applicable to the matter. Six Paths approaches each instruction as a defined professional assignment: the authority is reviewed, the required action is clarified and the outcome is documented.
02 / DOCUMENTATION
Creating a Clear Record of What Occurred
Dates, times, locations, attempts, outcomes and other relevant facts can be documented so the instructing client has an accurate record of the work performed.

Authority & Professional Boundaries
Bailiff Work Does Not Create Powers That Do Not Exist.
Six Paths will act only within the authority and lawful scope applicable to the assignment. A bailiff instruction does not permit threats, unlawful entry, improper seizure, harassment or other conduct outside the governing legal process.
Six Paths does not replace the client's attorney or provide a judicial determination. Where the legality or effect of a court order, enforcement step or other legal process requires interpretation, the client should obtain appropriate legal advice.
