Victorville Bail Bonds

Victorville, CA is located in the high desert area of San Bernardino County. It is approximately 80 miles northeast of Los Angeles and has seen tremendous growth in housing and commerce within the last few decades.

Arrest is not something anyone can really prepare for. It can happen without warning. It does not discriminate. Anyone can fall victim regardless of race, religion or economic status. And, it can be expensive. Very expensive. Most people do not have enough money to post the entire bail required for release.  In victorville, CA the agents of Riverside Bail Bonds can help you get through this difficult time without breaking your savings account. As soon as you learn of the arrest, your first step is to call our office and get the bail bonds process started. It takes approximately 30 minutes to fill out the application, secure the bond and get an agent on the road to obtain the release of your loved one. The entire process can be completed over the phone or through an email, if you are able to secure the fees with a debit or credit card.

Residents of Victorville and the surrounding communities have immediate access to a licensed and highly trained bail bonds agent at all times. If you live in or around the Victorville area, all you have to do is call 909-788-2663 and speak to a bondsman. At Riverside Bail Bonds, each of our bondsmen is licensed and insured. They know the law and they know your rights. If you have questions, our bondsmen know the answers. Our goal is to provide you with the highest quality of professional service around the clock, anytime, day or night.

Bail Bond Basics

The bondsmen of Riverside Bail Bonds will guide you through the entire bail bonds process. As soon as you learn of an arrest, make the call and one of our bondsmen will take your information and start the application over the phone. The 10% state-mandated premium can be paid over the phone by using a credit or debit card. If you need to secure the bond in another way, our bondsmen will meet you at a specified location or you can come to our office. Once the bond has been secured, they will go to the jail and post your loved one's bond. Bail is set high by local governments on purpose to discourage defendants from fleeing justice, while still allowing their freedom to prepare a defense, continue employment and be home with family. Unfortunately, the thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars required to pay a cash bond (post full bail upfront in cash) is near impossible for most. The percentage of people who are able to post the entire amount themselves, post a deed in lieu of cash or simply being released on your own recognizance is small.  In most cases, however, the only way to get out of jail before your first court date is to take out a "surety bond," which is more commonly known as a "bail bond."

To secure a bail bond, you pay only a certain percentage of the full bail amount as a one-time, non-refundable fee to your bail bondsman. The bail bondsman then posts the full bail with the court. However, if your bond is forfeited due to your failure to appear for your court dates, you will become liable for the full value of the bond. It is possible for a forfeited bond to be reinstated, but this is completely at the presiding judge’s discretion. In California, the state mandates that bail bonds fees be 10% of the bail amount, no more, no less, though there are rare cases where an 8% fee is permissible.

Two other ways to get out of jail are on a property bail bond or on O.R. ("own recognizance"). In Victorville, 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.

Honoring Your Obligations and Responsibilities

Once bond has been posted, the bail bond contracts requires that several obligations and responsibilities are met. There are several things you must agree to before bond can be posted. A few of them include:

  • Not being involved in any further criminal activity
  • Not leaving the court's jurisdiction
  • Honoring any restrictions put in the place concerning PPO's, restraining orders, etc.
  • Attending all hearings or meetings scheduled by the court
  • Checking in on a daily or weekly basis with the bail bond agent in charge of your case

You are responsible for your own actions while you are out on bond. If the judge or other court official discovers that you have been re-arrested, jumped bail or have left the jurisdiction of the court  for any reason, your bond may be revoked and the bail bonds agency will be instructed to return you to the custody of the jail or risk forfeiture of the entire bond amount. Once your case has been closed, your bond will be released, and your obligations will be fulfilled.

Know Your Rights and Responsibilities

Both the co-signer and the defendant have rights and responsibilities when it comes to posting a bail bond. As a co-signer, your main responsibility is to make sure the defendant appears in court and follows the guidelines of the court while they are out of jail. A co-signer also has the right to ask for the bond to be revoked if they no longer want to be responsible for the total amount of the bond or for the defendant's whereabouts.

In order for the defendant to be released from jail on bond, he or she must agree to follow the guidelines put forth by the court. This includes going to court on at the scheduled time, not being charged with any more crimes while on bond, not leaving the jurisdiction of the court, and checking in with the court and the bail bonds agent on a regular basis. If the defendant refuses to adhere to these responsibilities, their right to bail can be revoked and they will be returned to jail.

Once fully booked, your bondsman can immediately post the bail, but you then must go through a release process that can also be time consuming.
