A bail bondsman is a professional who has undergone special instruction and training to obtain a bail bondsman’s license. We then help get arrestees released from jail by providing funds for their bail. A bail bondsman posts bail on behalf of the defendant so that the accused can go home and work on their case and take care of their responsibilities. The client pays the bail bondsman a fee amounting in a fraction of the bail cost to obtain the bail bondsman’s services.

So Why Choose a Local Bail Bondsman?

Familiarity with Local Laws

Understanding how the legal system works requires a solid grasp on local laws and regulations. A bail bondsman local to the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff Station, for example, is well-versed in what the local laws are and how the police operate.

Service is Often Faster

Most of the time people are looking to get their friends or loved ones out of jail as fast as possible. Local bail bonds agents can usually provide faster service because they’re located near the jail/police station and are able to get the process started (and subsequently post the bond) faster than someone who is far away.

Previous Relationships with Local Police

Whether your city contracts with the LASD to meet its law enforcement needs or has their own police station, a local bail bondsman usually has established a previous relationship with the officers who run the jails. It takes time to generate these connections, but they are tremendously valuable when one needs to navigate our complex criminal justice/jail system.

How Does Bail Work?

To bail someone out of jail, first give us a call and provide us with some identifying information on the defendant. We can then use the info to locate them within the jail system and verify that they are indeed eligible for bail. After that we have you fill out the short, simple bail bond application forms and sign the indemnitor’s agreement. After that, we dispatch an agent to the jail to post the bond and your friend or loved one will be released as soon as they can.
