BAIL COSTS & PAYMENT OPTIONS

A bail bond in California costs 10% which is mandated by California law.

This is a non-refundable percentage of the total amount of the bail. For example, should the bail amount at Ridgecrest be set at $30,000, your portion will be $3,000. This is a non-refundable fee. We accept all major credit cards. Most clients find using a credit card the easiest way to pay for a bail bond. You may also choose to pay in cash.

We understand not everyone has  perfect credit these days, however, most of our customers find it easy to qualify for what is called a "signature bond." And, very often, collateral may not be required.

We also offer flexible bail bond payment options which our bail agents can help arrange when qualified. Call and speak with a licensed professional 24 hours a day.
