The
part of the criminal justice process that I was the least familiar with was the
bail bond process. I decided to do a little research to get more information about the process in Seminole County. I came across a Seminole
County Bail Bondsman website with useful information about the bail
bond process in Sanford and the surrounding area. Meeting with a bail bondsman
is the often the first step in the long process when someone is accused of a
crime. My understanding of the bail bonds process was that you pay 10% and you
get out. This is basically true but I have learned that payment plans are also
available with some bondsman. Collateral is not always required but if the
individual is a flight risk collateral might be required to help protect the
bondsman. These fine details are what makes the difference when selecting a
bondsman.
Defending against a criminal charge can be expensive. Using a
bondsman can reduce the amount of money that you have to tie up on the front
end of the case. Posting a cash bond and diligently defending a series charge
can be expensive. A bondsman reduces the cost of getting out of jail by 90%. On
a Seminole County burglary of a dwelling case that saves you $4410 on the cost
of getting out of jail. The above mentioned site also provides a bond schedule for Seminole County cases. If someone you know has been arrested contact a
bondsman to get them out of jail as soon as possible. Once they are out of jail
or if the bond is unreasonably high contact our Seminole
