How Does Bail Bond Work?

For serious charges, a person will have to remain in jail until the day of his or her trial. But within a short time of arrest, there will be a bail hearing to set the amount of bail needed to be paid for the temporary release of the defendant. In a way, bail serves as a promise to the court that the defendant will appear in court during his or her trial date. If the person shows up, the court will return the bail. Otherwise, the court will keep the bail and likely send out a warrant of arrest to the defendant.

Once bail is set for your loved one in jail, you may pay it either through cash or a property with a cash value. If the bail amount is too high to settle in one day, you may ask help from a bail bondsman to pay the full amount with the arrangement that you’ll repay it over a certain period.
