What is a Bail Bond?
A bail bond is a financial guarantee that a person will appear in court as required. Bail bonds are typically issued by a bail bondsman, who is a licensed professional who specializes in providing bail bonds.

The bail bondsman will then provide you with a bail bond. You will need to pay the bail bondsman a fee, which is typically 10% of the amount of the bond.
Once you have paid the bail bondsman, the bail bondsman will file the bail bond with the court. The court will then release the person who has been arrested from jail.
What Happens if I Fail to Appear in Court?
