The bail bonds are a legal system through which the accused stay out of court during the trial period.
The bail system is a very important term in the legal world. It is a system that ensures that the accused of a criminal offence returns to court as and when he is summoned. Through bail a person who is arrested for any crime released from the jail by paying a bail amount until the trial is under process. Technically the bail bonds are a written promise signed by the accused or a person on behalf of him namely the surety to pay the amount which the court fixes in case the accused fails to appear in front of the court on the date and time of the respected criminal proceeding. Bail bonds are basically executed when the bail amount is too high for the accused to pay.
This bond is signed by the accused, his or her family member and friends, or professional bail bonds agents through this document a promise is made to forfeit the sum fixed by the respected court if the accused failed to appear on the date of the trial.
For those accused that are unable to pay the bail amount which is fixed by the court as per the gravity of the offence the bail bonds agent is the solution of this problem. These agents are professional who for a fee of 10 to 20 percent of the bail amount posts the bail. They took the liability to pay the full bail amount in case of default by the accused. However such agents have their own way of operation for example they take collateral from their clients like jewellery, securities, or written guarantees by some credit worth relative or friend of their client so that the bail agent do not suffer any unexpected losses. Also in case of any doubt the agent refuses to post the bail. They need total security of the bail amount unless than they do not sign on bail bond. Also applicable in civil arrest the bail bonds are a procedure beneficial for both the accused and the court.
