Bail Bond Paperwork

When an individual is arrested and bail is set by the court, the defendant can secure his/her release from custody by posting cash bail directly with the court. If the defendant is unable to secure the full amount of bail, they can contact a bail agency and inquire about purchasing a bail bond. By purchasing a bail bond, the defendant agrees to pay an insurance premium for the use of the bond, during the duration of their criminal case.

A “bail bond” is an insurance contract between the defendant, the bail agency and the court. The defendant agrees to appear in court, or pay the face amount of bail to the bail agency. The bail agency agrees to guarantee the defendant’s appearance in court, or pay the face amount of bail to the court. Once the defendant has made all required appearances, the bail bond is exonerated both the defendant and bail agency are relieved of liability.

Depending on the amount of bail and charges against the defendant, the bail agency may require the defendant to have a co-signor or “indemnitor” guarantee the bail contract. The bail agency may also require the defendant (or co-signor) to deposit collateral (cash, real estate, etc.) for the duration of the criminal case. At the conclusion of the defendant’s hearings, the bail agency will return all collateral to the depositor.
