FAQ
Bail Bonds and Credit Scores It's a common misconception that co-signing for a bail bond will ruin your credit. In reality, a bail bond won't affect your credit score in any way. However, bail bond companies may conduct a credit check before allowing you to get a bail bond to make sure that you're a reliable co-signer.
You only go to jail after being on bail (assuming you complied with the bail conditions and it wasn't revoked) if you are convicted and sentenced to jail time. You may have been law abiding while on bail, but you are being sentenced for the offence you committed before that, which resulted in your arrest.
The decision to post bail for someone should not be taken lightly. Financially, you risk losing the bail amount or collateral if the defendant fails to appear in court. Legally, the defendant's absence can lead to arrest warrants and additional charges, complicating their legal situation further.
Bail after an Arrest After booking, a Bail Clerk will be contacted by the police and he or she will be told the circumstances of the arrest and the charges against the arrestee. The Bail Clerk will decide if a bail is necessary to guarantee your appearance at Court if you are released, and if so, how much.
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.

Bail is a way to allow you to get out of jail between the day you were arrested and the day your trial is set for. This gap can be months or even years, so people don't want to spend that time in jail when they plan on fighting a case.
