General Bail Bond Questions
What is a bail bond?
A bail bond is a financial guarantee that allows a defendant to be released from jail while awaiting trial. The bail bond company posts the bond with the court, promising the defendant will appear for all required court dates.
How much does a bail bond cost in Arizona?
In Arizona, the bail bond premium is typically 10% of the total bail amount. For example, if bail is $5,000, the bail bond fee is usually $500.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. We provide flexible payment plans with no credit checks so families can secure bail quickly without financial strain.
Costs & Collateral
Do I need collateral for a bail bond?
Collateral is not always required. Many cases are approved with just a co-signer. High bail amounts, felonies, or repeat offenses may require collateral such as property, vehicles, or other assets.
What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept cash, credit cards, debit cards, and in some cases, property as collateral. Payment plans are also available.
