Get Someone Out of Jail with a Bail Bonds Service
By admin | February 15, 2012
There are a number of different reasons why someone might get arrested. Someone can be arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, for thievery, for assault or even because of a case of mistaken identity. The good news is that if you’re arrested, or you know someone who’s been arrested, there is a way to get out of jail, and that’s with the help of a Bail Bonds Service.
A Bail Bonds Service is a service that will agree to pay the court the money required for your bail, on your behalf, so that you can get out of jail. In doing this, they are guaranteeing the court that you will appear in court on your court date. Once you appear in court, the bail bonds person or service receives the money they placed for your bail back. In the meantime, you’re responsible for paying a fee to the bail bondsman or turning over the title to your car, ownership papers to your home and so on.
Typically, the total fee for you is 10% of your bail total. What this means is if you use a Las Vegas Bail service to pay your bail of $100,000, then you’ll owe the service $10,000. You’ll find that in some cases the fee is as high as 15%, but in every state there are laws regulating how much a bail bondsman can charge for their services. You’ll be happy to know that if you’re arrested for a minor offense, it’s very unlikely that your bail would be in the range of $100,000. It’s more likely that your bill will be in the $1000-$2000 range. The bail will be more if there is a serious flight risk or a serious offense, such as assault with a deadly weapon.
Whether you need a Phoenix Bail service, or you need a bail service in Florida, you’ll find much of the practices are the same between states. A good bail service will have arrangements with a local bank that allows them to operate 24/7 without fear of not being able to come up with the money to pay your bail. Just remember, if you don’t have the money to pay the fee for the bail service, you’re going to have to stay in jail until your court date.
