A California bail bond fee will cost you 10% of the total amount of bail. As an example, if your bail amount is $20,000; you will be charged $2,000 from the bail bond company. This amount is non-refundable. Bail bond companies are regulated by the California Department of Insurance. Bail bond fees are established with the DOI so you should be paying the same amount with any California bondsman. There may be unusual circumstances where extra charges are applied but these charges should all be clearly stated by the bail bond company.<\/p>\n

\nBail Without Collateral<\/h3>\n
We are able to write most bail bonds with no collateral.<\/b> I will ask questions to determine the risk involved with the and try to do the bail bond without collateral. <\/a>I will want to know information about the defendant as well as the indemnitor (person guaranteeing and signing the bond) for example: How long have they been at their current job? How long have they been a part of the community? What type of crime was it?<\/p>\n We understand that your background may not be perfect. We are looking to make sure that those involved in the bond are able to appear in court and have the means to pay if the defendant unexpectedly “skips bail” and is unable to be located.<\/p>\n Collateral is sometimes required by a bail bond company to help ensure that the defendant will appear in court. If for some reason the defendant does not show up for court and cannot be located, the bail bond company will use the collateral to pay a “forfeiture” of the full bail amount. With Patel Bail Bonds, collateral may be in the form of California real estate or cash deposit.<\/p>\n If you secure a bail bond with collateral, it will be returned at the end of the case.<\/p>\n When you bail somebody out of jail, you sign a legally binding bail bond contract and are the “indemnitor”. You take full responsibility that the individual shows up in court. If the person you bail out fails to appear in court, you will be held responsible to help the bail bond company find the defendant and return them to court. If the defendant can not be located, you will be responsible for the full amount of bail. Keep in mind that the vast majority of bail bond issues can be easily resolved. They rarely escalate beyond a phone call to straighten out the situation.<\/p>\n If a defendant misses a court appearance, we will call both the bail bond signer and the defendant. If there was a misunderstanding on the date, or the defendant was sick, stuck in traffic, etc., the bond company will make arrangements with the court for a new date. This happens often and there is an easy fix. A warrant for arrest may be issued if a defendant fails to appear in front of the judge. This is called a “forfeiture”. Usually, a missed court appearance is a simple mistake and can be corrected with a few phone calls. If, however, the defendant is trying to avoid prosecution, the bondsman must locate and return the defendant. In California, a bail bond company has 6 months to get the defendant back into court. If the bondsman is unable to locate the defendant and bring them back into custody, then they may use a bail recovery person.<\/p>\n When bailing someone out of jail, the two most important points about “Bail Skips” are<\/p>\n [vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” bg_color=”#992934″ scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” class=”inner-page-header” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-2-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”QUESTIONS & ANSWERS” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:30|text_align:center|color:%23ffffff” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center”…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patelbailbonds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/96"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patelbailbonds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patelbailbonds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patelbailbonds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patelbailbonds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=96"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.patelbailbonds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/96\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1404,"href":"https:\/\/www.patelbailbonds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/96\/revisions\/1404"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patelbailbonds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=96"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
