The odds are pretty good that bail and the role of a local bail bond company never crossed your mind until you or a loved one is arrested. The problem is that by the time you realize you need bail, you’re often not in a position to do much research. The important thing is to stay calm and consider all of your options.
Understanding Bail
First, you need to understand what bail is. Bail is a financial contract between you and the court. In exchange for you paying bail, the court releases you from jail. In exchange for you making all of your court appearances, the court returns the money. It’s both an efficient and highly effective system.
In minor cases, you might not even have to post bail because the court is willing to release you on your own recognizance. If you’ve been charged with a major crime, a judge might set a high bail amount and attach several conditions to your release.
You Don’t Have To Post Bail Right Away
It’s perfectly natural to want to pay your bail and walk away from jail as quickly as possible. However, there’s nothing that says you have to pay bail right away. Once the amount of the bail has been set, you can pay it right away, or you wait a few weeks to pay it. It’s in your best interest to take a little time to consider all of your options before posting bail.
You Don’t Have To Post Bail By Yourself
Don’t assume that not having enough money in the bank means you have no hope of posting bail. Anyone who is over the age of 18 and has the financial means can post the bail for you. In some cases, friends or family members might be willing to help you out. In other situations, you can contact Bail Bonds in Brentwood for a FREE consultation.
