How Bail Bonds Work in Texas
A bail bond is one way a person can be released from custody while their case moves forward. Here is the general process, step by step.
- 1Arrest and booking: the person is taken into custody and their information, fingerprints, and photo are recorded.
- 2Bail is set: a magistrate reviews the charges and sets a bail amount and any conditions under Texas law.
- 3Choose cash bail or a surety bond: pay the full amount to the court, or work with a licensed bail bond company that guarantees it.
- 4Bond is posted: the jail completes release processing, which can take time and is not guaranteed.
- 5Attend every court date: the person must follow all conditions and appear in court until the case ends.
How Much Does a Bail Bond Cost in Texas?
- The bail amount is set by the court. A bail bond premium is the separate fee a licensed company charges to guarantee that amount, and it is generally not refundable.
- Licensed providers must explain their applicable fees. Payment arrangements and collateral requirements can vary from provider to provider and case to case.
- Always get the full terms directly from the licensed provider, in writing, before you sign anything.
