If a defendant cannot pay bail because of a financial lack, he can hire a bondsman to assist him. A bondsman charges 12% of the bail amount as his fee which is non-refundable. Once hired, the bondsman will sign a bond with the court to secure the release of the defendant. If the defendant violates the conditions of his release, it will be the bondsman’s responsibility to pay the amount stated in the bond.
