How Much Do Bail Bonds Cost?

First, when you chose to use a bondsman you only have to pay a percentage of the total bail amount.

Contrary to popular belief, the cost is not always 10%. It can vary anywhere from 7% to 15%. It will depend on the type of bond and of course, the bonding company you choose.

For example, if the bail amount is $15,000, you could pay anywhere from $1,050 to $2250. This is called a Premium payment. This is a much more appealing option for most people than having to pay the full $15,000. Fact is, most folks just don’t have that kind of money sitting around.

The premium payment is the bail bond company’s payment for posting the bail for the full amount of $15,000. The premium is considered fully earned when the defendant is released from jail. As long as the defendant stays in good standing with the court and the bail bond company, no other fees should be required.

If however, the defendant fails to comply with the bondman’s and the court’s requirements (timely check-in’s, timely appearance to all court dates, etc.) the bond agent may forfeit the bond. If this happens then the defendant and the co-signer will be responsible for the full amount of the bond ($15,000) and any costs related to placing the defendant back in custody – like bounty hunting fees and court costs.

Most bonding companies will require the bail bond premium to be paid in full before the bond is posted. Payment can be made by cash, credit or debit cards or a combination of both.

If you are not able to pay the full amount up front, Southern Bail Bonds will work with you to come up with a payment plan that you can afford. We try our best to make the process as easy as possible.

Once payment terms are agreed upon they are documented in writing and include a payment schedule so you know exactly what your balance is and when payments are due. We will give you copies of all documents you’ve signed, and if you misplace your docs, just give us a call. We’ll be happy to provide you with additional copies.
