Posting a bond and release
Once bail is set and the bond is approved, we post it with the facility and you can sign paperwork remotely. Release processing time varies with workload and any holds; no release time is guaranteed. Agree on a pickup point before the person is released. Request the full premium, initial payment, remaining balance, and any collateral terms before signing. A co-signer takes on real financial responsibility if the defendant misses court, and the premium is generally non-refundable once the bond is posted. See rates and pricing and payment plans. All bonds are subject to approval. Discounts, pricing offers, financing, and payment plans are subject to approval and on approved credit.
