Bonding

          When a loved one is arrested and accused of a crime, a local magistrate judge will likely set a bail amount for their release.  This is a way for them to regain their freedom and go about their lives while their case is pending.  This bail amount can usually be met using either cash, real estate, or through the use of a surety like a bail bonding company. 

          Georgia Code §17-6-15 provides the Sheriff of the county the authority to establish, publish, and regulate the guidelines and rules for bonding arrested individuals. The administration of this process is performed by the Bonding Administration personnel of the Sheriff's Office. 

 

          Most jails will accept the following types of bonds:

1. Cash. U.S. Currency, Money Orders, Travelers Checks or Certified Bank Checks.  No Foreign Currency, Personal Checks or Credit Cards.
2. Property.  Real estate property only.  No mobile homes or vehicles. 
3. Approved Bonding Companies.

          The selection of a bail bond company is important to the case.  There are many licensed bail bond companies in Georgia, but John A. Steakley, P.C., has always maintained a close relationship with A-Action Bail Bonds, LLC, and their subsidiaries.  They are one of the largest bonding companies in Georgia and serve every county in which we practice.  They offer very reasonable rates.
