Common Questions
Questions Before You Start
These are the questions families usually ask before posting a bond.
That's okay. Provide the defendant's full name, date of birth, and where they are being held. We can help confirm the current bond information before you decide how to proceed.
In many cases, the application and agreements can be completed electronically. Approved payments can also be made online or through a secure link. In-person help is available at our Raleigh office when needed.
The amount depends on the bond and the approved payment arrangement. Payment options are based on the bond amount, charges, and the cosigner or indemnitor's qualifications. We explain the amount due and any collateral requirement before documents are signed.
The detention facility controls release processing. Timing can vary because of staffing, paperwork, other holds, or release conditions. Amistad can post the bond but cannot control the facility's release time.
Another hold, warrant, or no-bond condition may prevent release even when one bond can be posted. We confirm the available custody and bond information before the agreement is completed.
In many cases, yes. The application, electronic signing, and approved payment can often be handled by phone or online. The bond and application remain subject to approval.
