If you or a loved one is arrested and taken to jail, a bail amount is set, which must be posted for the person to get out of jail. Sometimes the bail amount is considerably high due to the seriousness of the crime committed. If someone cannot pay the bail amount, they can hire a bail bond company to post it.
All Bond Fees Applied to Legal Fees
The bail bond is a surety bond paid to the court as insurance that the person returns to court for their court hearing. The bond will be relinquished if the person does not appear in court for their hearing. The bail bond company will be out the money they posted for bail, and the court will issue a warrant for the person to be arrested and placed back in jail.
If the crime committed by the person held for bail is not considered severe, bail usually can be made immediately. If the crime committed by the person held for bail is regarded as a serious crime, bail cannot be made until a bail hearing. At the bail hearing, a judge will decide if bail can be posted and how much the bail will be for the person to be released from jail.
