Monroe County Bail Bonds

Help for Those Arrested in The Keys?

Arrested for a Fishing, Boating or Florida Wildlife Violation?

Unfortunately licensing laws for fishing and lobstering in Monroe County can be very complicated with many restrictions on protected fish and other sea life, as well as very specific guidelines for different seasons. Failure to comply with these laws can often result in a resident or visitor being arrested for a FWC violation.

If you were arrested in Key West, Marathon, Islamorada or anywhere in Monroe County while fishing, lobstering, vacationing or as a resident,  Bail Bonds Now is available to help with bail money and quick, expert assistance.

How to Bond Someone Out of Jail

Getting someone out of jail at Bail Bonds Now is actually a simple process with our online bail bond application. The entire process can be completed from anywhere using a smartphone or computer. Anyone age 18 and over with a valid state ID or passport is allowed to act as an indemnitor (person who arranges for the release of a pretrial inmate) in Florida. The indemnitor is very similar to a co-signor on a loan.

How Much is it to Bail Someone Out of Jail?

The amount of bail determined in exchange for the release of a pretrial inmate is decided upon by the court. But bail amounts in Florida counties are mostly predetermined by uniform bond schedules. Although the magistrate has the ability to choose a different amount based on the defendant’s criminal history and risk to the community. In many cases with violent crimes or repeat offenders, pretrial inmates are not eligible for bail at all. Regardless, bail amounts vary from $100 to millions. For drug trafficking charges, you can expect a higher dollar amount.

How Can a Bail Bondsman Help?

A licensed bail bonds company has the ability to arrange for an inmate’s release for just a fraction of the full bail amount set by the court. However, the bondsman expects the defendant to show up for all court dates in exchange for submitting a surety bond. Otherwise, he will be forced to find the defendant and return them to jail within an allotted amount of time to prevent his agency from having to pay the full bail amount to the court. Because the bail bond agent takes this risk, he charges a non-refundable bail bond premium. In Florida, a bond agent charges 10% of the full bail amount for state bonds. If bail is set at high dollar amounts, most bondsmen will work out payment plans.

Can You Bail Yourself Out of Jail?

An inmate is allowed to bail himself out of jail if he has the financial ability to do so while incarcerated. However, it’s most common for a friend or family member to act as an indemnitor on their behalf.  In this case, the indemnitor is responsible for making sure the defendant shows up for all required court dates until the case has been closed. If the full bail amount is paid directly to the court clerk as demanded by the magistrate, the money is refundable minus any court fees (if the defendant shows up for all court hearings and follows all of the rules while on pretrial release).
