Bond Law in Colorado
In 2014, Colorado enacted a law that makes it more challenging to secure bail for individuals who are repeat offenders, particularly those charged with violent crimes or already out on bail for other charges. While it’s not impossible, the process can be more difficult. At Douglas Bail Bonds, we are committed to assisting you to the best of our ability.
We’ll provide guidance based on what we believe is the best course of action for your unique situation. If you’re considering signing for a defendant known for not adhering to bond agreements or the Judge’s conditions, we’ll offer our recommendations. However, you’re not obligated to follow our advice. Our priority is to support both you and the defendant in any way we can.
How Bail Is Determined
In Douglas County, a bail schedule is in place that outlines the minimum and maximum bail amounts for various offenses. The Judge then determines the specific bail amount that the defendant must pay to be released from jail. If the defendant is a repeat offender, the bail is likely to be set on the higher end of the scale.
For first-time offenders, the bail amount is generally set lower. However, the exact bail amount is influenced by the nature of the crime—whether it’s a violent crime, misdemeanor, or felony. The Judge also considers the defendant’s criminal record before setting the final bail amount.
How Douglas Bail Bonds Can Help?
When you choose to work with a Douglas County bail bondsman, you won’t need to cover the full bail amount to get the defendant out of jail. There are two key requirements when working with Douglas Bail Bonds or any bail bond agency:
1. The Fee Charged by Douglas Bail Bonds
Instead of paying the full bail amount, you typically pay a percentage of the bond set by the judge. For smaller bonds, this is usually 15%, while for larger bonds, it’s 10%.
2. Cosigning for the Defendant
To simplify things: You’ll only be responsible for paying a small portion of the set bond amount. Then, you must sign a contract with Douglas Bail Bonds. By signing, you’re guaranteeing that the defendant will attend all court dates. If the defendant fails to comply, you’ll be held accountable for the full bond amount. Once the charges are dropped or the case concludes, the bond is released.
If your loved one or friend has been arrested and you need help bailing them out, Douglas Bail Bonds is here for you. We offer 24 hour bail bonds, so don’t wait, your loved one doesn’t want to be locked up any longer than necessary. Call Douglas Bail Bonds at 303-778-0026 today.
