QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

General information to help you get started.

What is a bail bond?

When someone is arrested, the court sets a bail amount that has to be paid to release them until their court date. A bail bond lets you pay a smaller, non-refundable fee to a licensed bail agent instead of the full amount — we post the bond with the court and your loved one is released.

How do I get started?

Call us or fill out the contact form with a few basic details — the person's name, the jail they're being held at, and the bail amount if you know it. We'll walk you through the rest and start working on the release right away.

Are you available 24/7?

Yes. Arrests don't happen on a schedule, so we're available around the clock, seven days a week, including holidays.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept cash and all major credit cards, and we offer financing options for families who need to spread out the cost. Reach out and we'll go over what works best for your situation.

What information will I need?

It helps to have the full name of the person in custody, the facility they're being held at, and their booking number if you have it. If you don't have all of that yet, don't worry — we can look most of it up once we know where they were arrested.

How much does a bail bond cost?

In California, bail bond fees are set by state regulation, typically a percentage of the total bail amount. The exact fee depends on the bail amount set by the court. Call us and we can walk you through the cost for your specific situation.

Where do you provide service?

We serve Riverside County, San Bernardino County, and Orange County, including the jails and police departments throughout those areas.

Do you work with multiple detention facilities?

Yes. Visit our Jails We Serve page for the current list of facilities we work with.

Will bailing someone out affect their case?

No — posting bail simply secures someone's release while their case is pending. It doesn't affect guilt or innocence. The person is still required to appear at all scheduled court dates.

What happens if the defendant misses a court date?

Missing a court date can result in a warrant for arrest and forfeiture of the bond. If a court date is coming up or gets missed, contact us right away — the sooner we know, the more we can help.
