Description

The Bail Bond Agreement is a legal document used to facilitate the release of a defendant from jail while ensuring that the bail bond company is protected against potential losses. This form is essential for individuals, such as attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants, who work within the Bronx legal system, especially those involved in criminal defense. Key features of the form include obligations for the applicant to pay a premium, indemnify the bonding company, and assist in the defendant's release and compliance with court requirements. Complete and accurate filling of the form is crucial; it requires specific details about the applicant, the defendant, and the bonding company. The document provides explicit instructions on responsibilities, including potential liabilities and the process for forfeiture of the bail bond. This form is not only used to secure bail for defendants but also applies to any subsequent bonds for related charges. Attorneys and other legal professionals must ensure the form is executed correctly to avoid complications, making thorough understanding and attention to detail vital. Additionally, the provision for annual premiums and indemnification clarifies financial responsibilities, serving as a critical tool for managing client relationships and liabilities.

FAQ

Failing to post bond has several consequences: Extended Jail Time: You remain in custody until your court date, ranging from weeks to months. Court Appearances: Regular court appearances are required.

No - if you signed the bond it doesn't matter whether you have a job or not - or whether the bondsman asked you if you did. You are liable as surety on the bond - having a job or not has nothing to do with your liability. Sorry.

Bailing someone out of jail who has a history of untrustworthy behavior can create headaches. You're essentially agreeing to put up 10 percent of a bail bond that could be tens of thousands — or even hundreds of thousands — of dollars. If they fail to show, then you went to all that extra trouble for nothing.

Yes! In California, bonds can be posted twenty-four hours a day, seven days per week. But whether you can bail someone out of jail at any time depends on their situation. When someone is arrested, they have a first appearance soon after.

The defendant can post their own bail or ask a family member or friend to post it. If the defendant uses a bond company, the company may require the defendant to have a co-signer (someone who will help the company find the defendant should they fail to appear).
