Most of the time, bonding somebody out of jail can be a fairly simple and straight forward process. Once the defendant is processed at the jail, a bail amount is set for his release. This bail amount is used to ensure that the defendant returns to all future court appearances. Often, the bail amount is more than the defendant, or co-signers have, or can afford to pay.
Therefore, instead of waiting in jail until the court appearance, a service is provided. That is where Bail Bondsman come in. Bondsman charge anywhere from 10 to 20 percent of the total bond amount. This will depend on the circumstances, risk, distance, location and many other factors of the case. This charge is known as a premium, and is therefore non-refundable.
