May I suggest creating some type of class with string properties for the items you need. You can retrieve the error type, stack trace and message from the exception. The stack trace should contain your method name, but you can include the namespace and class by using the System.Reflection.Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().FullName. You can then create a custom event in your web service which contains your custom object as it arguments which will be fired on exception and have your calling function handle the event appropriately and extract the details from your custom object.
