When bail gets set
Felony bail in McLennan County is set by a magistrate rather than a schedule, which usually happens within twenty-four hours of booking. Until that number exists, no bond can be posted by anyone.
That waiting period is the right time to call. We open the file, qualify the cosigner and have the agreement ready, so the moment the amount is on the record we are already at the window rather than starting from a blank page.
What we need from you
Bring what you have. If a detail is missing we work with what is available and fill in the rest by phone.
The defendant’s full name and date of birth
The charge, if it has been stated
A photo ID for the cosigner
Proof of residence or income
A phone that stays on
Cost and payment plans
The premium on a Texas felony bond is 10% of the court-set amount. On a $40,000 bail that is $4,000, and very few families have that in cash at two in the morning.
A down payment starts the paperwork and the balance is scheduled around your pay periods. Larger bonds can be financed through Bail Rep. Terms are agreed before anything is signed — there are no numbers you have not seen.
Discretion
Employers, neighbors and the rest of the family hear nothing from us. Payment arrangements are handled the same way. The only people who need to know about the bond are the ones on the paperwork.
A licensed bondsman answers every hour of the year. Nothing is owed for asking what a bond would cost.
