Common Questions
What is a bail bond?
A bail bond is a way to help secure someone's release from jail while their case is pending, through a licensed bail agency rather than paying the full bail amount directly to the court.
What information do you need from me?
At minimum, the defendant's name and where they're being held. Additional details like a booking number, charges, and your relationship to the defendant help speed things up — see our Before You Call checklist. If you don't have everything, call anyway.
