How Do You Get a Bail Bond?

A bail bond is a guarantee that the accused will appear in court. If the accused fails to appear, the court could issue a warrant and order them to be arrested.

Bail bonds are typically issued by insurance companies. They are also regulated under state law. Only licensed bail bonds agents in North Carolina can post bail.

How does a bail bond work?

The arrestee is usually taken to the local jail, where they will remain until their arraignment hearing. A bail amount will be set by the judge at the arraignment.

If the defendant is unable to afford bail, they can contact a bail agent to post bail for them. An agent will charge a fee that is non-refundable, usually around ten percent of total bail amount.

The agent will then place a bond with a court. This guarantees that the entire bail amount will be paid if defendant doesn't show up on their court date.

The Difference Between Bail Bond

It is important that you understand the difference between bail and bail bond. Bail is the amount that is set by the judge during the arraignment hearing.

Bail bond is a contract between defendant, bail agent, court. A bail agent posts a bail bond on behalf the defendant. If the defendant doesn't show up to their court date, the bail agent will pay the entire bail amount.

Although most people use a bail bonds agent to post bail bail, some may prefer to pay cash to the court. They can get their money back provided they show up to all their court appearances.

Why a Bail Bond Agency

A bail bond agent is better than paying cash to the judge for several reasons. First, it's much easier to get bail money from a bail bonds agent than it to make bail payments on your own.

The second is that if your court date is missed, the bail amount will be forfeited to the court. If you use a bail agent, however, you will only owe the agent a small amount of the total bail amount.

Finally, a bail agent can be a great way to get out of jail quicker because they already have the money available to post your bail.
