-
What’s better; a bail agent or a bail bondsman?
These two titles may sound different, but they really mean the same thing. A bail agent is a bail bondsman and vice versa.
-
How much do I have to pay?
Cost depends on the price of the bail itself. Initially you need to pay 10% of the bail. Depending on your information, we may be able to offer discounts.
-
With interest, how much do I have to pay?
At Fairfield Bail Bonds we do not charge interest, you only have to pay the 10%.
-
How much do I have to put up front?
We like for the initial payment to be around 1% of the bail, so if the bail is $10,000 we like the initial payment to be at least $100. Again, pricing varies from case to case and depends a lot on the co-signers.
-
How do I make payments?
We accept a number of different payment methods such as cash, checks, and most major credit cards. We also have the ability to accept payments online, over the phone, or in person at an office. You can pay with whichever method is most convenient for you at the time.
-
What is a co-signer?
A co-signer is anyone who is willing to sign for your loved one’s release. The signer is promising that all the money will be paid, and that their loved one will go to all of their court dates. A co-signer takes responsibility for their loved one during the legal process.
