Bayou Bail Bond Paperwork Process

The Bail Bond Agreement is a contract between the bail indemnitor and the bail agency agreeing to jointly promise the court that the defendant will return for necessary court appearances. This contract outlines the fee for services and the agreements made by bail agent and the individual or individuals bailing the defendant out of jail. 

You take full responsibility for the defendant to show up in court when you bail someone out of jail. Most bail problems and issues such as a forgotten court date or illness are easily resolved and rarely escalate beyond a simple phone call. That said, if you are considering bailing someone out and you have reason to believe they may not show up for court or may leave the area, please, do not bail them out. You are not criminally liable, but you may be civilly liable.
