Bail is a sum of money set by the court that allows a person to be released from jail while awaiting trial. The purpose of bail is to guarantee that the defendant will return for all required court appearances.

A bail bond is a financial guarantee posted with the court to secure a defendant’s release from jail while their case is pending. When Easy Out Bonding posts a bond, the defendant is released with the requirement to attend all scheduled court dates.

When you call Easy Out Bonding, Inc., having a few key details ready helps us move quickly. We typically ask for the defendant’s full name, date of birth, the county jail where they are being held (Hall, White, or Habersham County), and any bond amount information if it has already been set. If you do not have all of this information, we can still help guide you through the process.

Once someone is arrested and bail is set by a judge, contact Easy Out Bonding. We’ll gather required information, review conditions, and prepare the bond paperwork. After the bond is posted with the jail, release timing is controlled by the jail’s internal processing.

Yes. Easy Out Bonding is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights, weekends, and holidays. Bail can be posted at any time once a bond amount has been set by the court. Release timing is controlled by the jail, but our agents act as quickly as possible to post the bond once all requirements are met.

Easy Out Bonding follows Georgia state law. Bail bond fees are 15% of the court-set bail amount or $50, whichever is greater. These fees are non-negotiable and regulated by state law.

Easy Out Bonding typically accepts:

  • Cash

  • Credit or debit cards

  • Checks

  • Money orders

Your agent will explain accepted payment options when you begin the process.

Collateral is not required in every case. Some bonds may require collateral depending on the bond amount, the charges, or the individual circumstances involved. If collateral is needed, our agents will explain what is required and why, before any paperwork is completed. Common forms of collateral can include property or other valuable assets, depending on the situation.

To start, we generally need:

  • Defendant’s full legal name

  • County and jail where they’re being held

  • Any available booking information

  • Cosigner details

Providing accurate information speeds the process.

A co-signer (also called an indemnitor) signs the bail bond agreement with Easy Out Bonding and guarantees that the defendant will follow all court conditions. The co-signer is responsible for keeping the bonding company informed of contact changes and ensures court appearances.

Yes. If the defendant is able to provide 100% of the bond fee or required collateral, they may act as their own co-signer based on approval and underwriting.

Once Easy Out Bonding posts the bond, release depends on jail processing. It may take time for paperwork to be processed and the defendant to be released, from typically under a few hours to longer during high volume, depending on the county facility.

Missing court can lead to the bond being forfeited and a warrant issued for the defendant’s arrest. If a court date is missed, contact Easy Out Bonding immediately to discuss your options.

A bail bond remains in effect until the case is resolved (dismissed, closed, or otherwise concluded). If the court releases the bonding company from liability once the case closes, the bond terminates at that time.

Most courts require approval from the bonding company and the court before leaving the state. If you plan to travel, discuss this with Easy Out Bonding to obtain proper authorization.

No. Bail bond fees are non-refundable service fees paid for posting the bond. Once the bond is posted and accepted, this fee is earned by the company for providing the service.
