Based on 49 reviews powered by Google
The phone rings at 2 a.m. On the other end, a mother in Cameron County. Her daughter is in a holding cell. The family has never been through this before. They do not know what a bond is, how much it costs, or who to call at this hour.
That is the call we answer every night.

In most cases, we start the paperwork within minutes of your call. Release times depend on the jail, but many families see their loved one home the same day.
The standard fee is between 10% and 20% of the total bail amount. If bail is set at $10,000, your fee is roughly $1,000 to $2,000. We can work out a payment plan if needed.
Yes. A live agent picks up every call, 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
The full name of the person in custody, their date of birth, and the jail where they are being held. A booking number helps if you have it.
That is common. We offer 0% interest payment plans and work with your budget so you can bring your loved one home without draining your savings.

We work with you to fit the situation. Most bonds cost between 10% and 20% of the total bail amount. If that number feels out of reach, we can help. Our payment plans carry 0% interest, no hidden fees, and terms that fit your household budget.
