​

Information

Once you call our agency, the bondsman in question will ask you or your friend/relative the following:

• What is the defendant’s (person in jail being bailed out) full legal name?

• What is the defendant’s date of birth?

• What is the arresting agency (Sheriff, etc)?

• What county, city and state is the person being held in?

• What is the booking number?

• What is the charge?

• How much is the bail amount?

(Your bail bond agent may also require some basic information about the accused personal history, including where they work, previous arrests, and residency information)

​

Payment

You will provide the J&J Bail Bonds Agency, Inc with a percentage of the total bail amount (typically 12-15% based upon the amount of the bail bond).

​

Contact

The bail bond agent will contact the jail facility and determine exact bail information and arrange to have your friend/relative released.

​

Arrangements

Your bail bond agent will contact you as soon as arrangements have been completed.

​

Availability

You must stay readily available. Your bail bond agent will probably need to contact you several times during the bail process, so you will need to provide them with a phone number where they can reach you. They may also need you to provide them with a fax number. (You can receive faxes at many grocery stores, office supply stores, and copy centers).

​

Be Patient

Many detention facilities (especially those in large metropolitan areas) are very slow in processing and often have their telephone lines overloaded with calls.
