Starting a bail bondsman business is a very attractive venture especially if you understand the growth potential. There are no businesses in the industry that have captured a majority of the market share which means that it is still up for grabs.
Background Check and Disqualifications A clean background is crucial. You cannot have any felony convictions. If you have a felony on your record, you are automatically disqualified from becoming a bail bonds agent.
Texas law requires every bondsman to take at least 8 hours of in-person classes approved by the state bar of Texas. Bondmen must also be age 18 or older. Further, any conviction for a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude or a felony will disqualify someone from being a bondsman.
