Imagine you have $5,000 in the bank. Now imagine you’re arrested and your bail is for $4,500. It often takes a few months to process everything and get all the court dates scheduled. That’s when things start to get tough if you’ve paid your bail, unless you’ve opted for bail bonds. Florida Keys bonds agencies help those who are faced with difficult decisions.

Many people face this dilemma every day. They can pay the bail and eventually get the  money back, but that means surviving for several months on just a small amount. In some cases, you can lose your job if you’ve been arrested, so working may not be an option.

If you can’t work or find another method of earning money, it seems to be a little more sensible to let the money stay in the bank, while you stay in jail . . . especially if you have a family to provide for. However, this isn’t the only solution.

Bail bond agents can pay the bail for you, taking only a little percentage off. That means you don’t have to worry about anything except showing up for your court dates. The money is still in your bank account, so you’ll be able to survive off savings while waiting for the trial.

When it comes to bail bonds, Florida Keys has several agencies that can help you. Look for one that is reliable and has a history in the area. They’ll already have the connections in place to make the process quick and easy.
