HOW BAIL WORKS

HOW TO POST BAIL


After someone is arrested and taken to jail, a bail amount is set. This amount is predetermined and set by the court along with any contributing factors. Setting a bail amount is the court's way of making sure the defendant will appear at their scheduled court date(s) after being released from custody.

In order to help you gain your friend's or loved one's freedom, our professional agents will need basic information from you. This can include their name, date of birth and the name of the jail or city where they're being held. Once we have verified their bail and charges, we quickly work with you and the jail to secure their release by delivering a bail bond to the jail in the full amount of the bail set by the court.

The actual cost is only a small percentage of the bail amount. In some circumstances, collateral and/or a co-signer may be required. Let Sacramento Bail Bonds guide you through the bail process.
