Call a bail bonds agent.

If you or your loved one has been arrested, and you do not have the money or the assets to post bail, it’s time to call a bail bond agent. The information you’ll need includes:

The full name of the person arrested.
Which jail they are in.
Their booking or report number.
The charges they are accused of.
Any extra information you can gather regarding this arrest.

The Paperwork

The bail bond agent will need you to sign some paperwork in order for you to secure their services. This usually means paying an amount to the agent, usually a percentage of the total bail amount, and signing off on any collateral for the bond.

Posting Bail

The bail bond agent will usually meet you at the jail to post the bail for release of your loved one.

Release from Jail

Depending on how crowded the jail is in your area, the process of posting bail can take anywhere from half and hour to a few hours.
