USING A BONDSMAN

To bail someone out of jail, you may take the full amount of the bail to the court or jail, usually in cash or cashier's check. They will hold your funds until the resolution of the case. Most people don't have those types of funds available and choose to use a bail bondsman.

If you choose to utilize a bail bond company, your cost will be 10% of the total bail amount.

If the bail is $25,000, your cost will be $2500. There are no hidden fees or taxes. The amount that you pay to the bondsman is a fee and is fully earned when the bond is posted with the jail and the inmate is released. When you sign a bail bond, you take responsibility to make certain that they return to court as required.
