What is a Bail Bond?

Great question.  Bail is essentially an insurance policy with the courts to make sure a defendant will appear at future court proceedings.  A judge in Columbiana, AL typically sets bail based on several criteria such as criminal history and employment status.  A judge will also take into consideration if you pose a risk to the community if you are released.  Every case is different and judge has full discretion when it comes setting bail.

You have several options when it comes to posting bail in Columbiana, AL.  You can pay cash, post a property bond or work directly with a professional bail company such as Rush Bail Bonds.  Paying cash for your bail is great if you have the money on hand.  However, getting arrested is often unpredictable and hard to budget for.  This is where our bail company come in.  We promise to make getting out of jail as fast and as affordable as possible.  Call us right now for more information.  Instead of paying the full bail amount, you pay a bail company just 10%-15% of the total bill.  We also require a co-signer and collateral.  Once we  have received our small fee, we post bond directly to the courts.  If however, a defendant skips bail and doesn’t appear at future court proceedings, the co-signer is on the hook for the total bail.  We advise you to get a calendar and stay in close contact with your attorney to guarantee you will always be present for your court hearings.

Once I post bond, how long will I be out of jail?  How long you are out of jail varies case by case.  It could takes months, sometimes years before a case is resolved.  If the charges against you are dropped, then you won’t go back to jail for that case.  However, if you reach a plea agreement with the state or a jury finds you guilty you may go back to jail for an unknown amount of time.  If you’re found guilty of a crime, the state has set forth sentencing guidelines to help a judge determine how much more time you should sit behind bars to pay for your crime (s).  In some cases, a judge will credit a defendant for time already served in jail, which could reduce your overall sentence down the road. Again, every case is unique.  It’s best to seek legal advice from your attorney.
