The fee for a bail bond in Chattanooga, TN, is normally restricted by law. It is a certain percentage of the bond amount, often 10% of the bond.

Typically, a bail amount is set by the local court jurisdiction following the arrest of a defendant. According to the Brennan Center for Justice, pretrial detainees make up more than 70% of the U.S. jail population, and many of them are only there because they can’t afford bail. A family member, close friend, or sometimes the defendant will contact a bail agent to arrange for the posting of the bail bond. The family member or friend that is guaranteeing the bond, also known as the indemnitor or co-signer, will complete paperwork and pay the premium, which is a percentage of the bond amount. By signing the paperwork, the indemnitor is guaranteeing that he or she will pay the full amount of the bond if the defendant fails to appear in court. Typically, collateral is taken from the indemnitor to secure the guarantee. If you need to secure a bail bond Chattanooga, TN residents can depend on, contact us today.
