FAQ
Bail exists because you're innocent until proven guilty. It doesn't get you out of any potential sentences but it lets you go home and maintain your life until your trial. Without bail you're held in jail until the trial. For crimes like murder or if you're considered a flight risk there won't be any bail offered.
It is rather a way of securing a defendant's agreement to abide by certain conditions and return to court. In that sense, bail is like collateral left with the court to ensure that, after the defendant's release from jail, he or she will return for the remaining parts of the criminal case.
Step One: Contact The Jail Once you have been released from jail, you could ask the detention center directly for details of who posted your bail. If you failed to do this when leaving custody, you can call the main line of the jail.
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.
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.
Before giving us a call, make sure you have the following information handy: The full name of the person who was arrested. Where is the person being held for custody (you should include the name of jail, city, and county) The person's booking number.
