Consumer Tips
- Deal ONLY with a licensed bail agent. All bail agents listed on 1-800-FOR-BAIL.com have been pre-screened for licensing at the time they were listed. As an added protection, ask to see the bail agent's license and identification prior to any bail transaction.
- The bail agent should charge you only the legal rates. Additional charges should be itemized and explained to your satisfaction.
- Ask for an itemized receipt for all charges.
- Make sure you receive a copy of all signed contracts and agreements.
- If financing is provided, take time to read and understand the terms of the agreement prior to signing.
