Attorney-Referred Orange Bail Bonds
An Orange bail bondsman will typically charge you a 10% fee to bail your loved one out of jail. For example, if the bail amount is set at $50,000, you will have to pay a bail bondsman $5,000 to bail out your loved one. However, hiring a criminal lawyer will save you money immediately.
If you hire our criminal defense law firm to represent your loved one, you will be entitled to “attorney-referred bail,” which means the fee you pay a bail bondsman will be reduced from 10% to 8% of the bail amount. So if bail is set at $50,000, this will instantly save you $1,000.
Your Bail Could Be Reduced or Eliminated
In addition, Wallin & Klarich may be able to help you have the bail amount reduced or eliminated entirely by using the following methods:
1. Your Wallin & Klarich Lawyer Can Contact the Detention Release Officer
After you hire our law firm, we will contact the Orange County Detention Release Officer on duty and provide them with information about the case and ask that your loved one be released on his or her “own recognizance.” If this request is granted it means that you will not have to pay a bail bondsman any money. This can save you thousands of dollars and your loved one will be released from custody within a few hours.
2. If No Charges are Filed, Your Loved One May Be Released from Jail without Having to Post Bail
When Wallin and Klarich is hired we jump into action. We will attempt to speak to the law enforcement agency that arrested your loved one. We then will appear in court on the first court date (which occurs within a few days of your loved one’s arrest) and attempt to convince the prosecutor not to file criminal charges. If this happens, your loved one will be released from jail and you will have saved thousands of dollars.
3. Money You Pay a Bail Bondsman is Never Refundable
If you pay a bail bondsman money to bail out your loved one, that money is not refundable to you. If no criminal charges are filed in your loved one’s case the money you pay to a bondsman is lost forever. Hiring an experienced criminal defense attorney as soon as you hear that your loved one is arrested is critical so you can make the best decision regarding bail.
