What is a Bail Bond<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Surety bonds, commonly known as a\u00a0bail bonds<\/strong>, are contracts between a state licensed bail agent and the signer or cosigners and guaranteeing that a defendant will appear for scheduled court appearances. In the event of failure to appear, sometimes called a “skip”, the signers of the bail bond contract agree to pay the court the full amount of the bond.<\/p>\n

If you are considering bailing someone out of jail, it is important that you know how the process works and understand your bail indemnitor responsibilities. we can answer your specific questions or provide more California bail bond information 24 hours a day.<\/p>\n

\n

Purpose of the Bail System<\/h3>\n

<\/a>The purpose of the bail system is to guarantee the appearance of a criminal defendant in court. The bail system was imported to the U.S. from England in Colonial times and has origins dating back to medieval times. Statistically, the bail system works well and costs taxpayers nothing as bail agents are underwritten privately.<\/p>\n

\n

Bond Approval<\/h3>\n

<\/a>In order to approve California bail bonds, information will be collected by the bail agent through an interview. Some bail bondsmen require collateral in order to secure the full amount of the bond. At Tonya Page Bail Bonds, I work with clients to create a bail contract where\u00a0collateral is not necessary\u00a0if possible. The process takes just a few minutes.<\/p>\n

What to Expect when Bailing Someone Out of Jail<\/h3>\n

<\/a>When someone is arrested<\/a>, the defendant, a friend, or relative will contact a bail bond company. During the free phone consultation, most companies will collect basic information about your situation in order to determine the risk involved in the bail bond and begin the approval process.<\/p>\n

The types of questions asked are typically what is the nature of the charges, when were they arrested, how long have you known the defendant, do you and the defendant work, are you home owners, how long have you been with your current employer, etc.<\/p>\n

If you choose to purchase a bail bond, basic documents will be processed and need to be signed. These include a bail bond application, Indemnity Agreement, and receipt.\u00a0With Patel Bail Bonds the paperwork can be processed by e-mail and fax in a few minutes<\/strong>\u00a0or a licensed agent can meet the client at their location or at the jail.<\/p>\n

\n

Completing the Process – Release from Jail<\/h3>\n

<\/a>After the paperwork is finalized, a licensed agent will file, or “post”, the bond with the jail which will result in the release of the defendant. Again, jail facilities vary in the amount of time to process the bond and release the detainee. From start to finish, this bail agency will generally complete the paperwork and posting process in 1-2 hours. For this service, the customer is charged a\u00a0bail bond fee<\/a>\u00a0(generally 10% of the full bail amount, which is mandated by state law).<\/p>\n

\n

If the Defendant is not Bailed Out<\/h3>\n

<\/a>If the defendant is not bailed out or\u00a0otherwise released, she or he will usually remain in custody until arraignment and potentially until the matter has been resolved in court. The benefit of being released on bail is that the defendant will have time obtain qualified legal services and present the case in a complete manner.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Bail Bond Costs<\/h3>\n

In most states, including California, the cost of bail bonds is set by law and rates are not negotiable. The fee for California bail bonds is 10% of the bail. There are no taxes for a bond. By example, if the bail is set at $20,000, which is average in California, then the fee charged is $2000.<\/p>\n

In certain rare cases for high bail amounts, bonds may be eligible for an 8% rate.<\/p>\n

I provide several\u00a0payment options<\/a>.\u00a0You may pay using cash or major credit card including Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover Card. we can also provide easy, no cost financing for qualified customers.<\/strong><\/p>\n
