Frequently Asked Questions

In Florida, the cost of a bail bond is regulated by state law. Licensed bail bond agents must charge 10% of the total bail amount or $100 per charge, whichever is greater.

Because the bail bond industry is regulated by the State of Florida, every licensed bail bond agency must charge the same premium. The difference isn’t the price, it’s the level of service, experience and professionalism you receive.

At Cary Carlisle Bail Bonds, we provide confidential, courteous and professional service backed by decades of experience. If being treated with dignity and respect is important to you, we’re here to help.

No. The bail bond premium is the fee paid for the professional services provided to secure the defendant’s release from jail. Once the bond has been posted and the defendant has been released, the premium has been fully earned and is not refundable.

If you provided collateral to secure the bond, that is separate from the premium. Once all obligations of the bond have been satisfied and the bond has been discharged, your collateral will be returned according to the terms of your bail bond agreement.

No. The bail bond premium is not refundable simply because the charges are later dismissed or reduced.

The premium is earned once the bond has been posted and the defendant has been released from custody. The outcome of the criminal case does not affect the cost of the bail bond.

Choosing an experienced, reputable bail bond company helps ensure the process is handled efficiently and with the respect your situation deserves.

When you post a full cash bond with the court, your money is held until the case is resolved. Before the court returns any remaining funds, it may deduct court costs, fines, restitution and other court-ordered obligations.

In addition, if the defendant fails to appear in court as required, the entire cash bond may be forfeited.

By using Cary Carlisle Bail Bonds, you only pay the legally required bail bond premium instead of tying up the full amount of the bond. This allows you to preserve your financial resources while still securing the defendant’s release as quickly as possible.
