The Bail Bonding Process

No one plans on getting arrested, but if it happens, you should know how the bail bonds process works.

Bail is set by a judge after you are arrested. Because bail is typically an unexpected expense, many defendants can’t afford to pay it on their own, so they work with a bail bonds company to post a portion of the bail on their behalf. Bail bonds companies charge a non-refundable fee, set by law, to secure the defendant’s release from jail.

Think of bail as an “insurance policy” to make sure a defendant appears in court for judicial proceedings related to their case. Click here to learn more about the bail bonds process in Georgia.

We are from out of state and I couldn’t find a bondsman that would help us without trying to over charge us or just simply saying “sorry we can’t help” or not even try to call me back but once I called A 2nd Chance Bail Bonds all my worries were gone! I spoke with Kyle and he did not skip a beat in wanting to help our family! I was losing hope and Kyle showed us it wasn’t about the money it was about helping. We couldn’t be more grateful for all he did! He was very professional! Very kind and acted quickly! The company name and motto says it all “Everyone deserves a second chance” and it’s true! Thank you for everything Kyle! God Bless!

I contacted A 2nd Chance Bail Bonds for our daughter who was arrested for a DUI ,etc. She moved in with us to help us with our physical limitations. We are retired and in poor health. We had NEVER dealt with a bail bonding business before. Brandon was so understanding and kind He handled everything for us on line. He was wonderful. We were lost until we got in touch with him. Thanks so very much for being our hero !!!!

Great experience with Michelle. She was patient, through and kind throughout the entire process. She answered all my questions and ALWAYS follows up. I used both the Fulton and Dekalb location and she helped me get things going there as well. I’ve dealt with other agencies in the past but 2nd Chance is legit and diligent. They truly want to help bring your loved one home. Go with them, you will not regret it.

This was a wholly new experience for me and I cannot say enough about Michelle for getting me through the process quickly, efficiently and with the utmost compassion. This girl had literally a MILLION people calling her at the same time and she maintained a positive attitude and professionalism the entire time. I’m hoping to never have to call them again but for sure if anyone I know inAtlanta is in need of these types of services I will highly recommend!!

Daniel's 2nd Chance Story

In the late 1990s, when Daniel Matalon was a teenager, he began a drug habit that could have destroyed his life. Instead, after a succession of failed treatment attempts, he found a recovery center that worked—and in the process discovered his entrepreneurial spirit.

That spirit, along with business mentoring from a family friend, enabled Matalon to turn his life completely around. Today, instead of using drugs, he helps substance abusers and others who violate the law through his company, A 2nd Chance Bail Bonds.
