Choosing the Right Bail Bond Agency
It's both frustrating and frightening to hear that a loved one has been arrested. Choosing the right bail bonds agency can help alleviate some of those feelings.

We Help You Understand the Process
The sooner you call the agents at Riverside Bail Bonds, the sooner we can get the process underway. We will need to collect specific information such as the defendant's full name, birth date, address, the area where the arrest was made, the pending charges, and how much will be needed to post their bond. The application can be performed over the phone, through an email, by fax, or you can come into our office. The choice is yours. To secure the application, we will need to collect the 10% premium that is mandated by the state. It is non-refundable and will not be negotiated. Once the formalities are taken care, our agent will head to the jail.
The booking and intake process begins as soon as the defendant arrives at the jail after the arrest. Booking can take from 2 to 6 hours depending on how busy the jail is. After the bond has been posted, the release process begins. This can take up to 8 hours depending on the size of the jail and the number of staff on hand. The bail bonds agent will discuss the defendant's rights and responsibilities with them as soon as they are released. The most important stipulation for release is that the defendant agrees to appear at all their scheduled court hearings. If they miss their hearing and do not turn themselves in, a bench warrant will be issued for their arrest and their bond will be forfeited. If a bond is forfeited, the co-signer immediately becomes liable for the entire amount of the bond.

Why Use A Bail Bond?
If you opt to take out a bail bond, state law requires you pay a 10% non-refundable premium on the bail amount, neither more nor less. In some rare instances, a reduction to 8% may be possible, but anything less than this is illegal and could lead to your bond being later declared invalid. The co-signer of the bond will be held liable for the full bail amount should the bond be forfeited after the defendant fails to appear in court, and it is fully at the judge's discretion whether to reinstate a forfeited bond after the defendant finally does appear. Those skipping bail are also subject to re-arrest, often by a bounty hunter hired by the bail bondsman.
So long as the defendant dutifully appears for his/her court dates and does not violate other terms of bail, such as not leaving the county and notifying your bail bondsman of changes to address/contact information, a bail bond will be a great help. It will allow the arrested individual the chance to get out of jail, hire a good defense attorney, and prepare a solid defense.
Two other ways to get out of jail are on a property bail bond or on O.R. ("own recognizance"). In Rancho Mirage, a property bond, which is posting bail with the deed to a piece of real estate, normally requires a property value at least twice that of a cash bond. This is based on the equity rather than on the market price. Because the process of posting a property bond is slow and tedious, it can leave you waiting in jail for days or even weeks, but it can also save you money so long as the bond is not forfeited. If it is forfeited, you risk the permanent loss of your property. Release on own recognizance occurs when the court finds you to be an "upstanding citizen" who can be trusted to be released without posting any bail at all. This is rare, but if you have no criminal record, long-time residence and employment in the community, and good character witnesses, it might be possible.
The process of obtaining a bond is foreign to most Americans. Riverside Bail Bonds understands this and strives to make the experience as seamless as possible. We understand the laws and guidelines for posting a bond in Rancho Mirage, CA and can make your experience a little less stressful. When using a bond, you are only required to pay a percentage of the entire bail amount as a one-time fee to your bondsman. California law dictates this amount is 10 percent of the total bail amount except in special circumstances when only 8 percent is required. This 10 percent fee is non-refundable. Once you pay the fee, Riverside Bail Bonds will put up the remaining amount of bail to the court. This allows the bondsman to make a small profit and not have the added stress of coming up with a large amount of money for bail on such short notice. And, it makes it easier to focus your attention on your case and court dates without worrying about bail. Also, if the 10 percent will create a financial hardship, we do have in house financing that will be approved on a case by case basis. Please keep in mind that if the defendant fails to appear at any court dates the judge will issue an arrest warrant and you must return to jail within the designated amount of time. If this happens, your bond will be immediately forfeited, and you will be responsible for the full amount of the bond.
Riverside Bail Bonds does allow cosigners, and we take great care in explaining your responsibilities at the time of obtaining a bond. It is important to remember that you are accepting full responsibility for the full amount of the bond if it is forfeited by a judge. In our experience, we find it is best if you do cosign to ensure you are in contact with the defendant as well as the bondsman to ensure you are aware of any information regarding the case. It also helps to provide accountability for the defendant with court dates and such. This is suggested so the requirements issued by the courts are fulfilled and the bond will not be forfeited.
