No one plans to be arrested, booked, processed and set in a jail cell.  In fact the whole ordeal can come as a complete surprise to family and loved ones.  It doesn’t matter if you are experiencing an arrest for the first time or your one hundredth being arrested is not a pleasant experience.  We understand that if a family member or loved one has been arrest you may be trying to figure out what to do next. Because bail can cost between $1,000 and a $100,000 depending on the circumstances you might be asking yourself if you can afford to post bail.  What are you supposed to do in this situation? In today’s post we’re going to address this question and explain why you should use bail bonds. Hopefully this will clear up any questions or hesitations you have surrounding bail bonds.

Why You Should Use Bail Bonds

An arrest can happen to anyone at anytime.  Unfortunately, most people don’t plan on being arrested or have a “bail savings account”.  And with the price of bail varying depending on the offense you may not know how much it’s going to cost.  Fortunately, there is a solution. In Delaware, a bail bond agent can offer you a bail bond for 10% of the cost of bail.  This is helpful because it makes posting bail obtaining for everyone. What if you have the savings and are able to pay for bail all on your own, should you still use bail bonds?  We say, yes! Because of the second reason why you should use bail bonds – that is keeping funds available. If you happen to have enough money to pay for bail out right we still recommend using bail bonds.  We say this because if there are any unforeseen legal fees, or if the defendant has to miss work, or if they need to pay for additional childcare. Having the extra money set aside can be very helpful!
