FAQ’s

At Rocket Bail Bonds, we quickly process bail so you or your loved one can be released from custody as quickly as possible

A Bail Bond is a financial warranty made by or on behalf of a criminal defendant and used to guarantee their appearance in court throughout their trial.

There are two things Rocket Bail Bonds needs from a cosigner to bail someone out of jail:

1.  Valid Driver’s License or state issued ID card

2.  Current paycheck stub

A Judge within the county of arrest sets the bail amount and the process is regulated by the State of California. Once bail is set, a Rocket Bail Bonds agent will calculate a fee based on regulation by the State of California. The bond is posted and the defendant is released once Rocket Bail Bonds receives payment and has established a qualified cosigner. Click here for more information on Bail Bond Process. 

The bail bond amount is the full amount of bail set by the court. The premium is the dollar amount charged by Rocket Bail Bonds for providing the pre-trial release service. Usually, the premium is 10% of the bail amount and is regulated by the State of California, e.g., if the bail amount is $20,000, the premium is $2,000.

 

Our bail agents are fast, and can often complete the process in 15 minutes.

The cosigner/indemnitor is a person or people willing to be responsible for the defendant while out on bail, and also assumes financial responsibility, including guaranteeing the full bail bond amount.

 

A bail bond is exonerated when the trial has finished. The bail bond is discharged regardless of the outcome of the trial. However, all unpaid premium, court, attorney, and other fees charged by Rocket Bail Bonds are still owed.

 

Reinstatement could be granted if a defendant has failed to appear in court. The court may remove the bench warrant and reactivate or reinstate the bail bond. The defendant working with Rocket Bail Bonds will report back to court, which allows the court to set a new court date for the defendant. The proceeding may result in additional fees to the defendant and cosigner.
