Research First. Decide Second.

financial-district-bailbonds1

Hiring a bail bond company to help get your loved one out of jail is not a decision you make on the fly. It is true that you want to choose someone sooner, rather than later, so your loved one can post bail faster. However, you want to do some research into multiple bail bond companies before making a final decision. Here are some things to look for:

Cost
California bail bond companies charge 10% of the full bail amount as the premium. This is the amount you pay to the company. Obviously you will want a company that has no hidden fees or interest rates.

Flexibility
The bail bond company should be available 24/7, and should be understanding and accommodating to your current financial situations. Each family goes through this differently since no two are alike...

Learn about Bail Bonds First

pacifica-bailbonds1

Whoever said that bail bonds are sketchy and for the lower class was wrong. Bail bonds are just as legitimate and equal as cash bail. Of course, there are different contingencies and requirements for both, but they both get the job done. In fact, even rich people and celebrities use bail bonds rather than cash bail.

Truth be told, bail bonds are the more common method to posting bail. Reasons more people choose bail bonds can be that they like the idea of having a professional bail agent assisting them through the entire process. They want the payment plan that bail bonds come with. They would rather pay 10% of the bail, rather than 100% it...

How Can I Pay for Bail?

montara-bailbonds1

Think of all the ways you can pay for something: cash, credit, debit, or checks. That is plenty of options to pay for a piece of clothing, or for a bail bond.

A bail bond is used to get a defendant out of jail pre-trial. Bail bonds are more accommodating than cash bail for their affordability, flexibility, and of course, the methods available for payment. More people go the bail bond route than the cash bail route and it is most certainly not any of a lesser means than cash bail.

When a bail bond is used, a professional bail agent from Montara Bail Bond Store will be assigned to the case to help the client each step through the process, making it easier and less confusing. Montara Bail Bond Store bail agents are incredibly helpful and professional, but are also there for support as well.

Rainy Weather Driving Precautions

mission-district-bailbonds1

Rainy days are still ahead California, whether you are in Northern California where rainfall is more abundant, or you are in Southern California where it happens less often. Driving habits need to be changed when it is raining versus when it is a dry day to ensure road safety. Here are some helpful rainy weather driving tips that will help protect you and others from harm’s way.

• The road is most slippery on the first day of rain.
• Drive slower and leave more space than usual between your car and the car ahead.
• Brake earlier than normal so the car behind you has extra time to brake as well.
• Make sure all car lights are working: headlights, taillights, signal lights, brake lights, and high beams.
• Make sure your horn is working.
• Check your tire treads; if they need changing, cha...

Benefits and Risks of Bail Bond Co-Signers

millbrae-bailbonds1

Dealing with an arrest is an incredibly stressful and tense time, not just for the individual, but for their loved ones as well. There will be some bickering, but there should be mostly figuring out how to get through this situation together. Multiple parties will be involved in some way or another: the defendant, a bail bond company like Millbrae Bail Bond Store, employers who may need to know, friends, family, a lawyer, and a co-signer.

This all sounds pretty straight-forward, but not to the co-signer. What is a co-signer, and what do they do?

A co-signer is needed for the bail bond. The co-signer assumes responsibility of the defendant to see that they show up for their court appointments...

No Resolution Is Too Late to Start

linda-mar-bailbonds1

It is not January 1 anymore, but you can still come up with some 2017 resolutions. It is never too late to set goals and commit to them. Whether it is something you try every year, like eating better and working out more, or something that is quite the challenge, like breaking bad habits and putting yourself in uncomfortable yet good-for-you situations.

Touching more on the latter example, say you are one to drink and drive. You have never been caught and you have never blown it, but frankly, you cannot keep doing this. So this is the year you kick that bad habit of feeling invincible when you really are not. In addition to not drinking and driving, consider forcing yourself to drink less...

Handling Arrests with Grace

financial-district-bailbonds2

No matter who you are, know this: you are a role model for someone out there, whether it is your child, friend, sibling, parent, or even a stranger. Someone is looking up to you. You do not have to be the older person to be the role model, you can be a role model to someone who is older than you.

Through good times and bad, carry yourself with pride and grace. Through those bad times, handle the situation as maturely and responsibly as possible. That means, in a worst case scenario, posting bail after your arrest, staying out of anymore trouble, and showing up for court when scheduled. If you can do this, then you are showing others like you that getting through this extremely difficult time and getting life back on track is possible.

Posting bail is best done with a bail bond from Finan...
