Bail and Bondsman

In the court order, the judge sets the bail amount to enable the arrested person to get out of custody and prepare for trial from freedom. In case you do not own the money for the bail bond amount, you can use a commercial bail bonding agency. All bail must be posted as cash, money order or bank draft. Personal checks are not permitted. The bonding agent will complete the bailout procedure on your behalf, charging a service fee. The fee is non-refundable, so you should arrange it before you sign for the bail loan.
