Phoenix Bail Bonds, 24 Hours a Day

Once bail is set at the initial appearance and the paperwork is signed, our agent can usually post the bond within the hour at any time of day. The jail then processes the release, which the Sheriff's Office says can take up to 24 hours but is often two to eight hours.

Yes. Qualified cosigners can split the premium into payments with no interest. We review the plan with you before anyone signs.

Not always. Many misdemeanor and lower felony bonds are written on a qualified cosigner's signature alone. Larger bonds may require collateral such as real estate or a vehicle title, which is returned when the case ends.

Yes. We complete the application and indemnity agreement by e-signature, take payment by card, and post the bond at the jail. You never have to travel to Arizona for the bond.

Every county jail in Arizona, starting with all of Maricopa County: the 4th Avenue Jail, Lower Buckeye, Estrella, Towers, Watkins and Intake, Transfer and Release, plus the city holding facilities in Mesa, Chandler, Glendale, Scottsdale, Tempe, Gilbert and Peoria. We also arrange transfer bonds for other counties and states.

Yes. One Stop Bail Bonds, LLC and its agents are licensed by the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions, which regulates every bail bond agent in the state. We will give you our license information on request.

The full name and date of birth of the person in custody, where they are being held, the bail amount if it has been set, and your contact information. If you do not have the booking number, we can find it.

The court issues a bench warrant and starts the forfeiture process. We work with the family and the attorney to get the person back before the court and avoid forfeiture. If the person is not returned, the cosigner is responsible for the full bail amount under the indemnity agreement.

Arizona bail bond premiums are set by the surety company's rates filed with the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions, typically 10% of the bail amount. A $5,000 bail costs about $500; a $25,000 bail costs about $2,500. Surety schedules set a minimum premium on very small bonds. Licensed agents cannot charge interest on the premium, and we disclose every fee before you sign.

After an arrest in Arizona, a judicial officer sets release conditions at the initial appearance within 24 hours. If a secured appearance bond is set, you can pay the full amount in cash to the court, or hire a licensed bail bond agent. The agent charges a premium set by filed surety rates, typically 10% of the bail, posts the full bond with the court, and the person is released. The premium is the agent's fee and is not refunded; a cash bond paid directly to the court is refunded if the person appears at every hearing.

The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office states that release processing can take up to 24 hours after a bond is posted. In practice, release from the 4th Avenue Jail often takes two to eight hours, and releases from the Durango complex jails (Lower Buckeye, Estrella, Towers, Watkins) can take longer because the release order must reach that facility. Weekend nights and holidays are slowest.
