Frequently Asked Questions

Bail bonds are a vital part of the criminal justice system, and they provide a way for people who are facing criminal charges to secure their release until their court date. By doing so, bail bonds also help alleviate overcrowding in local jails by reducing the backlog waiting for trial.

Bail bonds typically cost 10 percent of the full bail amount, which is then paid directly to the bondsman who is responsible for ensuring that defendant appears in court for trial. If a defendant fails to appear, the courts can choose to revoke or forfeit the bond or call upon the services of private enforcement agents contracted by bail agencies to apprehend those who jump bail and return them to law enforcement custody.

When a defendant is accused of a crime they’re arrested taken to jail and given a bail bond amount that pertains to the crime they are being accused of. Bail is the amount of money it takes to get a person arrested for a crime out of jail.

The cost of a bail bond can be a significant financial burden, especially if the charge is serious. Generally, bail bonds require a premium: most often this is set at 10% of the bail amount, so bail set at $20,000.00 would cost you $2,000.00. However, some agencies that offer a premium rate in certain circumstances. In these cases, eligibility requirements need to be met such as being a union member or an active/retired member of the military. Likewise, those that are senior citizens and defendants represented by a private attorney may have access to this discounted rate.

When a person has been arrested and charged with a crime, they may be released from jail on bail. Bail is money or other forms of security that are given to the court to secure the release of a defendant until their trial. In order to post bail, the defendant (or someone on their behalf) must contact a bail bond company who will provide them with a bond in exchange for payment.

Bail bonding is a big business in some parts of the world, allowing people to get out of jail while they await their court date. Bondsmen charge a premium, usually 10 percent, for providing the line of credit necessary to post bail. Unfortunately, this payment is not typically refundable if you end up appearing in court and are found innocent or your case is dismissed. This means the bondsman has already collected their fee for their service and is allowed to keep it no matter the outcome of your case.

The more reliable option, however, may be going directly through the court itself to put up 100 percent of your bail. If you can do so, then you are entitled to a full refund after appearing in court, regardless of whether you’re guilty or not. This way, there’s no need to pay an additional premium for a bail bond, just have enough money saved up to cover the amount set by the court for your freedom until your next hearing.

You can still post a bond for someone in jail, despite not having bail money readily available. Reach out to us and you’ll be given assistance by one of our experts who will explain the process of getting your loved one’s release. Usually, there is a 10% premium fee for a bondsman’s services. However, this may differ depending on the state.

If the defendant does not appear in court after they have posted bail, the bondsman is permitted to pursue, apprehend and bring them back into law enforcement custody and thus regain the paid bail amount.

Collateral is a valuable asset or type of property put up as security for a bond to guarantee payment of the bail amount by a third party. It ensures that defendants attend all court proceedings and remain law-abiding citizens until the case is resolved. There are two primary types of collateral: cash collateral and surety bonds. Cash collateral entails depositing a specified amount of money with the court. This money will then be released upon completion of the trial; however, if there is a breach on the terms of agreement while awaiting trial, this money may be used to cover any incurred costs such as settlement fees, court costs, attorney fees and other associated costs.

On the other hand, with a surety bond, a surety bond company promises to pay out the allocated bail amount to the court in exchange for the defendant’s appearance in all necessary hearings or risk paying an indemnity fee for noncompliance. Once bail has been paid and either cash or surety bond conditions are met, any collateral put up will be released after exoneration or clearance from any further involvement in the case. Exoneration happens when both parties involved agree to terms essential for dropping criminal charges against an individual who posts bail.

Not many agencies have the private financial backing to post bond nation wide but we do. Here at Abel’s Bail Bonds we have licensed agents who can post bond from any jail in any county, in any state in the country, at any time.

Yes, you still need to pay your bail bondsman even if your charges are dropped. When you sign a contract with a bail bondsman, you agree to pay their fee for putting up the full amount of your bail. This fee is usually a percentage of your total bail amount and is non-refundable, meaning you don’t get it back. The bail bondsman’s fee is for the service they provided when they posted bail for you, so it doesn’t matter if your charges are later dropped or if you’re found not guilty. You still have to pay them for their services according to the agreement you signed.

Payment options are quick and easy, we offer a number of different payment options, including all major credit cards, cash, and cashier’s checks. Our goal is to help tailor the bail premium to your financial stability.
