24 Hour Utah Bail Bondsman

Bail is a legal agreement between a defendant and a bail bond company to be released from jail for a fee with the promise to appear for their future court date. If bail is not paid, a defendant sits in jail until their day in court. A bail bond agent arranges to have the defendant released from jail in exchange for a monetary fee. A bond hearing will determine what the bail amount will be.

It means that the defendant failed to appear to court and the Judge has ordered the bond forfeited, also referred to as estreated. The bail bond company then has 180 days to locate the defendant and get him back into court, into jail, or the Judge will order a Judgment against the Utah bail company to replace the bond with the full amount that was posted.

A bail Recovery agent can revoke your bond for only a handful of reasons, and they should all be listed on a form given by agent called a Utah Disclosure which is required by all.

In Salt Lake ADC and the Purgatory jail in St George it usually takes around 2 hours for you to be booked (sometimes a little shorter or longer depending on the how busy). Once the bond is posted the jail says it takes 2-8 hours for their release but the average time is 4 hours. (This is also is determined by how busy they are)

All the other jails in Utah it usually take 45 minutes to an hour to be booked and about the same to be released after the bail is posted. (The paperwork process once they meet us is usually 20 minutes from start until we post the bond then it is up to the jail for the rest of the time)

Jail is one of the last places we ever want to see our loved ones. The uncertainty surrounding the whole jail experience affects not only the inmate, but it is often very stressful for their friends and family. If you find yourself in this situation, Bad Boys Bail Bonds Utah wants to provide you with the information you need so that the bail bond process goes as quickly as possible, and you can be reunited with your loved one.

Before starting the process of bailing a loved one out of a Utah jail, the individual must first be officially booked. Booking occurs after the arrest, and is simply an administrative process during which the authorities record information on the person and crime, take fingerprints and mugshots, search the defendant, and remove property.
 
After the booking process is complete, the individual is placed in a cell or, if they’ve been arrested for a minor offense, they may be given a written citation and released on their recognizance. The release can only occur after signing the citation and promising to appear in court at a later date.

The first thing to do when diving into the bail process is to start with the basics and gather the defendant’s personal information. You will want to include the individual’s:

• Name
• Date of birth
• Place of arrest, and
• Date of arrest (if known)

After that, the bail bond process is not the most intuitive, and it is recommended you get assistance to help with the process and all the parties involved. Bad Boys Bail Bonds offers help and expertise in expediting the bond process. They can help you determine the jail in which the defendant is located, and if they have been booked already. If your loved one has just been arrested, it is likely they will be in the jail of the county where they were arrested; Bad Boys Bail Bonds will let you know if that is the case.
 
Bad Boys Bail Bonds Utah also helps you find out the bail amount. The bond amount is 10% of bail set; so if bail were set at $10,000, it would cost a non-refundable $1,000 to bail the defendant out of jail. As explained above, if the defendant does not show up to court, the person who bailed them out is responsible for the full $10,000.
