method by which process was served
La "remise de signification" est la notification faite par un huissier de justice par la remise de la copie d'un acte de procédure à son destinataire.
IF (!) you are adapting this text for a readership whose judicial point of reference is the US legal system, I would suggest going with "process" rather than "notice".
The US Federal Rules of Civil Procedure describe at length the procedure for commencing an action :
"Title II – Commencing an Action; Service of Process; Pleadings, Motions, and Orders"
Also from Black's Law Dictionary :
What is SERVICE OF PROCESS?
The term for the delivery of a summons, writ or subpoena to the opposing party in a law suit.

Sorry about the repeated quotes from Black's. Don't really understand what happened there...

Discussion
The French term of 'personne morale' includes an economic interest grouping, a société de personnes or civile (professionelle). But a general or ordinary partnership in UK law vs. an LLP is neither a legal entity, nor a body corporate, nor a corporation aggregate and is e.g. taxed on its individual partners, whether personal or corporate.
It comes down to a motley crew of individuals and/or corporates (a company can be a partnership member in FR and EN).
Anomaly: a UK Solicitors' or accountancy firm whose name ends in '& Co.' is not strictly a company, either, but a partnership, unless followed by the word Ltd.
