How Do Bail Bonds Work?
Bail and bail bonds are two subjects that people may have heard of, but likely have very little understanding of since no one ever really expects to need bail. For instance, most people don’t know that bail and bail bonds are not the same things. They are two different, but related, ways to get someone out of jail.
Bail is what people are most familiar with. It is a set amount of money that someone needs to pay for a person to be released from jail. The exact amount of money varies from case to case. Meanwhile, a bail bond is what a person gets when they hire a bail agent to help them rescue a loved one from jail.
With a bail bond, a person signs a contract with their bail agent. By signing, they are agreeing to pay a percentage of the full bail amount to the agent in return for the bail agent posting their loved one’s bail. In this instance, instead of paying for the bail, you are paying for the bail agent’s services.
Here at Absolute Bail Bonds, we only ask for 10% of the full bail price. This means that our clients get a 90% discount on the cost of bailing their friends and family members out of jail. On top of just getting a discount, you get help professional bail agents. Our agents will always be there to answer your questions and guide you through rescuing a loved one from jail. Some of the other benefits that we provide for our clients include:
- 24/7 Bail bond service
- 20% Discount
- Phone approvals
- 0% Interest payment plans
- No hidden fees
- No collateral with working signer

Bail bonds work because the bail agent can pay the full amount of the bail to the jail right away. Also, they only cost a person a fraction of the cost of paying for the whole bail themselves.

Are You Looking for Affordable Bail Options?
When you need to pay for something expensive, it is usually easier to do so with a payment plan. This is why Absolute Bail Bonds provides payment plans for all of our clients. This way, the cost of the bail bond is broken up and spread out over several months. By doing this, paying to get someone out of jail becomes much more affordable, but we do not stop there.
One of the biggest problems with bail, aside from the cost, is the suddenness of it. You never know when someone that you care about is going to get arrested. The only time you learn about the arrest is after it has occurred. This means that you can never really save up and prepare to post bail.
This is a problem that Absolute Bail Bonds has created a solution for. We are able to provide clients with approved credit a 0% down bail bond. If you qualify for this, we will bail out your loved one and you don’t have to make a payment for up to a month after. This gives you some extra time to save up money for the first payment.
We also provide clients who qualify with an additional 20% off the price of the bail bond. This means that instead of paying 10% of the full bail amount, you would only have to pay 8%. To qualify for this discount, one of the co-signers on the bail bond has to meet just one of the following requirements:
- Be a member of the military.
- Be a member of AARP.
- Be a union member.
- Be a homeowner.
- Have a private attorney.
As long as one of those requirements is met by one co-signer, you can qualify for the discount. Some of the other things we do for our clients include:
- 24/7 Bail bond service
- Phone approvals
- 0% Interest payment plans
- No hidden fees
- No collateral with working signer

At Absolute Bail Bonds, we do everything that we can to help out our clients.

Need a Free California Warrant Check?
Warrants are tricky things. In most cases, the people issuing the warrant don’t alert the individual to the existence of the warrant. After all, if they could locate the person, then they would just arrest him or her. This leads to instances where people never even knew they had an outstanding warrant until they have a run in with the law.
This may not seem like a big deal, but it is more common than you might think. Luckily, it is possible for a person to check if they have a warrant. One of the easiest ways to do so is by contacting Absolute Bail Bonds. We provide free warrant checks in several California counties to help out our clients.
Each county is different on how warrant checks are performed and who can perform those checks. This makes it so that we can only perform warrant checks in certain counties.
The counties were we cannot perform warrant checks include:
- Alameda County
- Kings County
- Madera County
- Marin County
- Napa County
- San Francisco County
- San Mateo County
- Solano County
- Sonoma County
If you want to check for a warrant in one of these counties, you will need to do yourself. This is usually done by going to a local police station or courthouse, but can also be done online in some instances.
If you suspect that there may be a warrant out for your arrest, you should definitely check and make sure. You don’t want it to pop up when you’re interacting with the law over trivial things, like a parking ticket. Luckily, Absolute Bail Bonds in Downtown Los Angeles has your back. We will be more than happy to perform a warrant check for you, provided it is in a county where we can.
Want a free warrant check? If so, call 1-800-793-2245 or click Chat With Us now.
How Much Do You Have to Pay Upfront for a Bail?
When it comes to paying for expensive things, most people like to know how much they have to pay upfront. This is a reasonable expectation to have, especially when paying for something like bail. When you are bailing someone out of jail, you want to know exactly how much you will need to pay, and how much you will have to pay upfront.
Unfortunately, this isn’t an easy question to answer without first knowing the details of the case. Here at Absolute Bail Bonds, our bonds only cost 10% of the full bail amount. From there, we provide our clients with personalized payment plans. These plans help divide up the cost of the bail bond even further.
