  Morris County Bail Bonds Collateral

BAIL BOND COLLATERAL

 

Q:  What is collateral?
A: Collateral is something of value that is used to secure a debt or ensure payment. Sometimes a bail bond company will receive collateral in order to ensure that the defendant appears in court. Most bail bond collateral is in the form of real estate or cash. A bail bond company must return your collateral at the resolution of the case.

 

Q:  Do I always need collateral for a bail bond?
A: Not with us. We often negotiate no collateral bail bonds. These are called signature bonds. We find that most of our customers are eligible for a signature bond.

 

Q:  If I use collateral for a bail bond, when do I get it back?
A: When the defendant’s case has been completed and all financial obligations are satisfied, collateral is returned to the individual who pledged it.

 

Q:  Will the court take my property as bail collateral?
A: Yes, the court will take your property as bail collateral.  However, because Property Bonds involve real estate and can be likened to the buying or selling of a home, the process usually takes several weeks. Equity in the property must be equal to 150% of the total bond amount.
