Bail Bond Answers
How much does a bail bond cost?
In Colorado, the bail bond premium is set by law at 10–15% of the total bail amount. This fee is non-refundable. Payment plans are available.
How long does it take to get someone released?
Release time depends on the jail's processing speed. At El Paso County Jail, release typically takes 2–6 hours after the bond is posted.
Do I need collateral to get a bail bond?
Not always. For many bonds, particularly lower amounts, collateral isn't required. For high-value bonds, we may ask for collateral.
What happens if the defendant misses court?
The court will issue a bench warrant and the bond may be forfeited. We work hard to avoid this. Contact us immediately if a court date is missed.
Can I get my bail bond premium refunded?
No. The premium is a service fee and is non-refundable, even if the charges are dropped or the defendant is found not guilty.
What information do I need when I call?
Have: the defendant's full legal name, the jail or detention facility, the charges, and the bail amount if set.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. We offer flexible payment arrangements to help families manage the cost.
Are you available on holidays and weekends?
Yes, always. We operate 24/7/365 — including all holidays.
What is the difference between bail and a bail bond?
Bail is the full cash amount set by the court. A bail bond is a surety bond where a bail bondsman guarantees the full bail in exchange for a premium.
What areas do you serve?
Colorado Springs and El Paso County, plus Pueblo, Teller, and surrounding counties. Call us if you're unsure.
What is an indemnitor or co-signer?
An indemnitor (co-signer) is someone who signs the bail bond agreement and takes on financial responsibility if the defendant fails to appear.
Is my information kept confidential?
Absolutely. All client information is handled with complete discretion.
