Bail or a bail bond?
Paying the full bail yourself
You can pay the full bail amount instead of using a bond. Payment rules depend on the charge. Call us and we explain what the jail accepts. The deposit is returned after the case’s court appearances.
Using a bail bond
You pay us a premium, a percentage of the bail, and we post a bond for the full amount. Most families choose a bond because it costs far less up front. See what a bail bond costs.
Rock Mountain Detention Facility questions
Can you post bail at the Rock Mountain Detention Facility?
Yes. The Rock Mountain Detention Facility accepts bail bonds 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We can start right now.
How is bail set in San Diego County?
The court’s bail schedule sets a standard bail amount for each felony and misdemeanor charge. When someone is booked on two or more charges, the amounts are usually added together. Call us and we check the charges and the bail amount for you.
When can bail be posted?
Bail can be posted once booking is complete or after a court appearance. It cannot be posted while the person is in court or on the way to court, or once they have been sentenced.
When will they be released?
After bail is posted, the jail completes its record checks before release, and a hold from another case stops it. We stay in touch with you until your loved one is out.
Do I need to go to the jail?
No. As licensed bail agents, we post the bond ourselves. You and the co-signer can do the paperwork with us.
