UNDERSTANDING BAIL
Assistance from Our Virginia Bail Bonds Agents
What is a bail bond? After a person is arrested, the court sets the bail amount—or the amount of money that must be paid in order for the defendant to be released from jail before his or her court date. Because most people don’t have the financial flexibility to pay their full bail amounts, they usually rely on a bail bondman to help with posting the bail.

Here’s how the bond process works:
- A friend or relative of the incarcerated person contacts the bail bondsman.
- The friend or relative (the indemnitor) signs an agreement and pays the bail bondsman a percentage of the bail total (a 10% premium).
- The bail bonds agent / agency posts the bond with the court and gets the defendant released from jail.
- The indemnitor becomes financially responsible for the total bail amount if the defendant does not appear for all court dates.
