Inmate Locator
The city of Winnetka’s law enforcement needs are met by the LAPD operating out of two different stations. Inmates can be transported to either police station depending on where the arrest takes place. Using the inmate locator can show you which jail your friend or loved one was taken to. However, if the information has not yet been entered into the system, one of our bail agents can always help out.
Regardless of the jail an arrestee is taken to, they will next undergo a procedure known as booking and processing. This is where fingerprints and photographs are taken and a background check and Livescan is conducted. Once complete, bail will be set and the inmate will be eligible for release.
The Bail Bond Process
The first step in the bail process is to call and speak directly with one of our licensed, caring bail agents. We will ask you a few questions in order to locate your friend or loved one in the system and then verify their eligibility for bail. After that, you will need to fill out and sign the bail bond application forms and indemnitor agreement. Once that’s complete, a bail agent will be quickly dispatched to the jail to post the bond and your friend or loved one will be out shortly thereafter.
What is an Indemnitor?
As the signer (indemnitor) of the bail bond, you will be held financially responsible if the defendant does not meet their court obligations. This means that, should the defendant fail to show up for their appointed court date(s), you will have to pay the full amount of their bail to the court.
The Cost of a Bail Bond
Bail is set in varying amounts depending on several factors, including: the severity and number of the crimes, as well as a defendant’s risk of flight. In California, the cost of a bail bond is set at 10% of the total bail amount. So, if the total amount of bail is $15,000, then the cost of a bail bond will be $1,500.
We accept a variety of payment options including major credit/debit cards: Visa, Master Card, American Express and Discover as well as cash, business and personal checks, money orders, money wire and bank account transfer. We also offer flexible payment options designed to fit most any budget, should you want to finance your bail bond.
