Three Steps to Start the Release Process
You do not need to understand the whole system. You only need enough information for us to start.
Call the Correct Office
Tell us the defendant’s full legal name, date of birth, jail or county, and bond amount if you know it.
Review Price and Approval
We explain the premium, cosigner requirements, payment options, and whether collateral may be needed.
Complete the Bond
Finish eligible paperwork and approved payment remotely. Once requirements are complete, we post the bond.
Clear Bail Bond Pricing
Bail bond premiums generally range from 10–15% of the total bond amount. Your exact rate depends on the bond, charges, defendant, cosigner, payment arrangement, and overall risk. You receive a clear quote before signing.
- Qualified payment plans may begin with a down payment equal to 5% of the total bond amount.
- Weekly or biweekly arrangements may be available based on approval and bond risk.
- Collateral is not automatic. Requirements depend on the bond, charges, defendant, cosigner, and overall risk.
- Approved payment methods may include cash, cards, Zelle, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.

Bail Bond Questions Families Ask First
How much does a bail bond cost?
Bail bond premiums generally range from 10–15% of the total bond amount. That means a $5,000 bond may cost $500–$750, a $10,000 bond may cost $1,000–$1,500, and a $20,000 bond may cost $2,000–$3,000. Your exact quote depends on the bond and risk.
Can I use a payment plan?
Qualified clients may be approved for a payment arrangement beginning with a down payment equal to 5% of the total bond amount. Terms depend on the bond amount, charges, defendant, cosigner, payment history, and overall risk.
What information do I need before calling?
Start with the defendant’s full legal name and date of birth. If available, also have the jail or county, bond amount, charges, booking number, and your relationship to the defendant.
Can I complete everything from my phone?
Many clients can start the application, complete eligible documents, and make an approved payment remotely. Availability depends on the bond, cosigner, payment arrangement, and case details.
How long does release take after the bond is posted?
The jail controls release timing. Booking status, staffing, facility volume, additional charges, and other holds can affect the timeline. We move once the bond requirements are complete, but no bondsman can guarantee the jail’s release time.
Is collateral always required?
No. Collateral is not required on every bond. The decision depends on the bond amount, charges, defendant’s history, cosigner strength, payment arrangement, and overall risk.
Can I help someone if I live outside North Carolina?
Often, yes. Online applications, eligible electronic documents, and approved remote payment methods may allow an out-of-state family member or cosigner to help. Call the office serving the arrest county for a case-specific review.
This page provides general information, not legal advice. Bond availability, release conditions, payment arrangements, and collateral requirements depend on the court order and the facts of each case.
