Finding yourself in jail is probably the last thing on your “to do” list. It is that way for most people. It would be great if no crimes were ever committed and the jails remained empty; same with prisons. But, alas, there will likely always be a need for a bail bondsman to come to the rescue. Without his or her services, many people would find themselves sitting in jail awaiting their hearing or sentencing set forth by the judge. You need a bail bond agency to help you get out of jail.

If you do find yourself on the wrong end of the law’s long arm, then it is good to know what is going to happen. The very first thing, as you might have guessed, is that you are going to be arrested and booked on whatever crime has allegedly occurred. Just remember that you are innocent until proven guilty. The second step is a judge setting the bail bond. A bail bond is how much money it will take in order for you to get out of jail until the hearing.

Once the bail bond is set you have two options. Option A is to pay the entire bond out of pocket. The great thing about this option is that you will pay no fees and once you show up in court you will get your money back. Option B is that you contact a county bail bond agent who will pay the bond, or rather guarantee the bond for you. You will have to pay a 10% fee of the total bond amount. The downside to this option is that the fee is non-refundable.
