Do You Need Collateral to Post Bail?
There are a lot of different aspects to bailing someone out of jail. Some things, such as giving information about a loved one to a bail agent, are easier to understand. Other things can be completely new concepts to people. One example of this would be collateral. Some people have never heard the term before and have no idea what it means or how it applies to bail.
Collateral is something that often pops up when large sums of money are being loaned to others. In its simplest form, collateral is something of value that a client pledges as an insurance that they will pay back the loan. The collateral has to be equal to or greater in value to the amount of money loaned. If the client fails to pay off their loan, then the company keeps the pledged collateral as payment for the loan.
Collateral can be any sort of item as long as both the client and the company agree that it has value. The larger the loan, the more valuable the collateral has to be. Some examples of collateral include jewelry, cars, and homes.
When it comes to bailing someone out of jail, a lot of bail bond companies require their clients to pledge something as collateral. This makes an already stressful situation even worse. Luckily, there is an alternative, just contact Absolute Bail Bonds. We don’t require collateral on most of our bonds. More often than not, we just need the signature of a working co-signer.
Some of the other services we provide for our clients include:

What Happens If You Miss a Bail Bond Payment?
A concern that many people have when dealing with bail is being able to make the payments. Here at Absolute Bail Bonds, we break up the cost of our bonds by providing personalized payment plans for all of our clients. This makes bailing a loved one out of jail a whole lot easier for our clients.
While the payments are designed to fit within each client’s unique budget, it isn’t always perfect. Sometimes life gets in the way and changes things up. What may have started off as an affordably sized monthly payment can suddenly become unbearable. This can happen for any number of reasons and can cause additional stress for clients.
Luckily, here at Absolute Bail Bonds we understand how things can change from month to month. Sometimes something like an emergency happens that makes someone spend more money than they were planning to. This, in turn, can make paying a payment more difficult for a month or two.
If a client is aware of the fact that they are going to miss a payment beforehand, then they should talk to their bail agent. We are more than happy to work with clients when they need help. If a payment is missed without warning, contact your bail agent right away. If you don’t do that, your loved one could be taken back into custody.

How Is Bail Priced?
When it comes to getting someone released from jail, the one question that everyone has is how much will it cost. Everyone wants to rescue their loved ones from jail, but they want to make sure they can actually afford to do so. Sadly, answering this question without any specific information isn’t as simple as listing a number.
Bail is dependent on all sorts of variables. First and foremost, a person’s bail amount is dependent on what crime he has been accused of. Next, the bail amount is dependent on where the person was arrested. Every county in California has its own list of bail amounts for different crimes.
After that, a person’s criminal record plays a part in the bail amount. People who have committed more crimes in the past are typically more likely to commit more crimes in the future. These people tend to get higher bail amounts than people with cleaner criminal records.
Lastly, when deciding a person’s bail amount, a judge will look at the likelihood of the person running away once released. The higher that chance is, the higher the bail amount, up until it is decided the person cannot be released from jail.
All of these little things play into the pricing of a person’s bail. So without knowing any of this, it is hard to say how much a person’s bail will cost. However, this does not mean we can’t help. Here at Absolute Bail Bonds, we know everything about bail. If you have a loved one who has been arrested, we will be more than happy to figure out their bail amount and help you post bail at an affordable price.

What Documentation Is Required?
People have a lot of questions when it comes to posting bail with a bail bond for the first time. Most people have never posted bail before and would like to get through the whole process as quickly as possible. They want this not just for their sake, but for the sake of their incarcerated loved one as well. After all, nobody wants a loved one to be stuck in jail.
A person can help speed up the bail bond process by having certain documents ready to go. Here at Absolute Bail Bonds, we need the following documentation to setup a bail bond:
- A recent paycheck or pay stub.
- A piece of mail with home address for proof of California residency.
- A valid California ID.
If you have this information ready to go when you meet with a bail agent, it can help speed up the process of bailing out your loved one. That is all anybody wants.
Another way to help speed up the bail process is to have some co-signers ready to go before calling. Co-signers are important because they help share the responsibility of the bail bond. With multiple co-signers taking care of the bail bond, it reduces the pressure of paying for the bail bond.
Bail may be new to you, but with help from the professionals here at Absolute Bail Bonds you have nothing to worry about. Don’t panic if you don’t have all of this ready to go right away. Our bail agents will be more than happy to help you out and answer your questions about bail. You will not have to face this alone.

How Long Do You Have to Post Bail?
The need for bail can arise without warning. As such, most people are not prepared to post their loved one’s bail. They need time to get enough money for the bail bond, but they are afraid they will miss the window to post bail entirely. Luckily for them, the time limit for posting bail is very forgiving.
While there is a time limit to posting bail, that limit is dependent on the length of the person’s trial period. You have until the court reaches a verdict on your loved one. After that point, a person can’t be bailed out. Once the court has decided whether your loved one is guilty or innocent, they either no longer need the bail or can no longer be bailed out because they are serving their sentence.
The one problem with waiting to post bail, is that the bail amount can change. Sometimes judges will alter the bail amount after they have reviewed the case. They may decide that the bail is too high and lower it. However, they are also just as likely to raise the bail amount, meaning it will cost more to bail out your loved one.
Most people prefer to get their loved ones out of jail quickly and reduce the amount of time they spend behind bars. Absolute Bail Bonds helps with this. We provide personalized payment plans for all of our clients. This breaks up the cost of the bail bond and spreads it out over several months, making it more affordable from the get go.

Who Can Bail Someone Out?
People have a lot of questions when it comes to bailing someone out of jail. Most people don’t use bail on a day to day basis, so this confusion is understandable. Luckily, the professionals working at Absolute Bail Bonds are more than capable of helping provide answers for those questions. Here are just a few examples of the questions our agents answer all the time.
- What is a co-signer? A co-signer is a person who is willing to take responsibility for the bail bond and sign the paperwork. They are in charge of making sure that payments are made on time and that their friend or family member goes to all of their court dates. There can be multiple co-signers for a bail bond.
- Who can bail someone out? Unlike what some people may think, a person doesn’t have to be related to someone in order to post their bail. You just need to know enough about the person in order to fill out the paperwork for the bail bond.
- If I cannot bail somebody out immediately, up to how many days do I have to be able to bail them out of jail? In most cases, the only time limit to bailing someone out of jail is their trial period. Once the trial is over, the person is no longer bailable. So you have until then to get the person out of jail.
- What happens if I do not post bail? Your loved one stays in jail for the remainder of their trial.
- Can you bail someone out of jail in Nevada? No, we cannot. Absolute Bail Bonds is only licensed to provide bail bonds within the state of California. If you are looking to bail someone out in another state, you will need to contact a bail agent in that state.
- Can you tell me what my friend was arrested for? Yes, but in order to do that we will first need to locate your friend in the jail system. We will need, at the very least, his or her name, birthday, and county of arrest.
This is just a small sample of the questions our agents are asked on a daily basis. Hopefully this helps answer some of your questions. If not, you can always talk to one of our agents. Our bail agents are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and consultations are always free.
