Bail Bonds, Bail Agents in San Mateo County, California
If this is the first time that you are posting bail for someone you may find this information useful. Usually after a person is arrested, fingerprinted, photographed and booked, the next step is for the bail to be set. The amount and terms of the bail vary depending on the type of offense and the nature of the case. Depending on the amount of the bail you may be able to pay in cash, or for more significant bail amounts, you can offer title or property as surety. This means that if the terms of the bail are violated, the court forfeits the property or cash. The amount of the bail is set at the level that it is believed will ensure that the person charged will comply with the court and appear at the set date and time. When you act as guarantor for someone who has been arrested you are in fact becoming responsible for this person’s compliance with the terms of the bail.
If you are not familiar with the system you may have not worked with a bail bond agent before.
