Beating the bail bonds industry

Monday, March 29th, 2010

In order to bail someone out of jail as quickly as possible, you need to know a few things about the bail bonds industry beforehand. Most people don’t have a clue what they are getting themselves into, and that can often mean extra problems in the future and confusion initially.

When you need to bail someone out of jail, you’re going to want to talk to a large bail bond agency. Don’t pick a small agency or a single bondsman, and make sure they’ve got a good history of bailing people out of jail, before you talk to them. When you talk to the agency, they’re going to ask you a few specific questions. These will generally be things like the name of the arrestee and your own personal details, but bear in mind you will need proof of identification. Make sure you bring these details with you, or have them ready, when you speak to a bail bonds agency, because it’s the very first part of the bail bonds process.

Once you’ve given them your details, you’re going to need to sort out the collateral and pay the 10% premium of the bond. Make sure you take your time with this decision and talk to the agency about the different options you have. It’s important that you aren’t risking your own financial future too much.

Once you’ve done that, the arrestee will be released when possible by the jail. The next part is highly important, because you need to keep track of that person until they appear in court when summoned. If they skip out on their bail, you will have to pay the full amount of the bond, which is a horrifying prospect. Once the court date is finished, you can breathe easy, safe in the knowledge that you have beaten the bail bonds industry.

How to be a good friend – bail someone out of jail!

Monday, January 25th, 2010

If you’ve got a friend who was arrested and put in jail, whether rightly or wrongly, it is your duty to try and help them in any way you can. This could simply be in the form of moral support or setting your friend up with a good attorney, but if you really want to help then bailing them out would be the best thing you could do. Bailing someone out of jail is surprisingly easy, and isn’t anything how some people would have you believe it. The people in charge of bail bonds are extremely professional, deal with hundreds of thousands of dollars, and carry strong reputations in their industry, they aren’t just trying to make a quick buck.

If you can trust your friend completely not to skip out on his or her bail, then you really should have no hesitation about initiating the process. You’ll want to talk to a bail bondsman with specific knowledge of the way your area works (for example, a Fort Lauderdale bondsman), and who has years of experience under their belt. You’ll have to provide some information about the inmate, and yourself, in order for the process to truly get under way. Once the preliminary administration is carried out, the whole process can be very quick indeed. You’ll be asked to pay a 10% deposit (that’s 10% of the full bail amount) and also possible provide collateral. Collateral could be any type of asset that the Fort Lauderdale bondsman can sell at a later date to cover the costs of the bail, if your friend fails to fulfil the conditions specified by the court.

Once all that is done, it’s a simple case of waiting for the jail to release your friend. This can take a few hours, or a few minutes, it all depends on the jail and has nothing to do with the bondsman in charge of your case. If you follow instructions, you could be your friend’s new hero in a matter of hours.
