How is a bail bond amount determined?

The fee for bail bond agencies is 10% of the total amount of the bail that is set. This is a non-negotiable and non-refundable fee for their services even if the charges are dismissed before the court date arrives. In addition to the fee, the defendant will also have to offer some type of collateral to cover the total amount of the bail which usually includes some type of property.

A judge sets the defendant's bail amount. An Arizona bail bond agent will post the bond once the 10 percent premium is paid by the defendant or co-signor. If the defendant doesn't appear in court, they owe the bondsman 100% of the bond.
