The Process
How Bail Works in Bent County
Arrest and booking

We explain the cost
You hear the premium, whether collateral is needed and who signs, before anything is signed.

The person posting the bond signs and pays the premium. No office visit is needed, and we can meet you at the jail if that is easier.
