Whittier Bail Bondsman Offers Bond Posting Solutions To Locals

By Derick Scartel


If the phone rings in your home at three o'clock in the morning, it is not going to be a good thing. It could be someone you know that desperately needs bond money to get out of jail. When these things happen, your Whittier bail bondsman is not there to make judgments. He is there with the right kind of help.

Once a person is arrested and jailed, it could be a long time before they have the chance to attend a hearing. In fact, the legal system is not very fast and you could end up incarcerated for a long time. If you want to get out of jail you need to post a bond. This money guarantees you will attend your hearing or trial. If not, you lose the money.

Your bond could be only five hundred dollars of less. Yet, in some situations you may need many thousands of dollars. When you do not have the money for bond, you stay in jail unless you can find someone that is willing to put up the funds. That is where a bond service enters the picture.

All you have to do is contact a good bonding service and someone will visit the jail and post the money that you need. You are then free until the court date. Bond companies are not public services and most charge fees of 10 percent of the bond needed. For instance, a five hundred dollar bond would cost fifty dollars.

Some bond services offer special discounts to their clients, so it is best to shop around before you make a final decision. For instance, senior citizens and veterans may only need to pay seven percent instead of the usual ten percent, and other discounts may be available. This can result in a substantial savings.

If you have no cash, there are other ways you can pay for bond services. Some places allow signature guarantees and you also have the choice of putting the fee on a major charge card. This is one of the most convenient ways to pay.
