Bail Bondsman

A bail bondsman or bail bond agent is a person or business who pledges money or property as bail as collateral that the criminal defendant will appear for their court date. Bail bondsmen are only in business to cater to criminal defendants and often secure their clients release in just a few hours. Bail bondsmen are almost exclusive to the United States. In other countries bail is usually set at a more modest amount and bounty hunting is illegal.



Bail bondsmen have a standing agreement with their local court officials. The agreement is that they agree to post a blanket bond which pays the court if the defendant (the bondsman client) does not appear for their appointed court date. For this service, the defendant is charged a percentage of the bail amount. Before the bail bond is posted the defendant or a co-signer, often family, has to guarantee that they will pay the full amount of the bail if the defendant does not show for court date.



Family members and close friends are those who will typically post bail and/or co-sign. Collateral is sometimes but not always a requirement to be bailed from jail. A defendant can often be bailed from jail on the signature of a friend or family member alone. If a co-signer is required the person signing must have a job and either rent or own a home in the surrounding area.



In most jurisdictions bail bondsmen are required to be licensed in order to do business within the state. Four states in the U.S. have completely banned commercial bail bonding; they are Kentucky, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Oregon, instead they have substituted a 10 percent cash deposit alternative whereas the deposit is returned if the case concludes with no violations of bail conditions. Some of the states that have banned bail bonding still allow AAA and other similar organizations to continue to provide bail bond services to membership agreements or insurance contracts.
