How To Bail Someone Out of Jail
No one plans on getting arrested, but if it happens to you or a loved one, you should know how the bail bonds process works.
Bail is set by a judge after an arrest. Effectively serves bail as an “insurance policy” to make sure a defendant appears in court for judicial proceedings related to their case.
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 — a percentage of the bail amount set by law — to post bail and secure the defendant’s release from jail. If you are struggling to pay a friend or family member’s bail, we offer various payment plans tailored to fit your needs.
