POST DUI / DWI BAIL BONDS NOW Learn More about DUI / DWI Bail Bonds

What You Need to Know

  • California DUI bail typically ranges from $5,000 to $50,000 depending on BAC level, prior offenses, accidents, and injuries involved.
  • First-offense misdemeanor DUI bail is usually set between $5,000 and $10,000. Felony DUI with injury can reach $100,000 or higher.
  • You have only 10 days from arrest to request a DMV Admin Per Se hearing or your license is automatically suspended. Being out on bail protects this deadline.
  • Multiple DUI priors, refusal of chemical testing, or having a minor in the vehicle all increase bail significantly.

Domestic violence arrests in California come with mandatory arrest policies, protective orders, and bail conditions that are more complex than most charges. CityWide understands these restrictions and works quickly so you can get out, consult an attorney, and navigate the process properly.

POST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE BAIL BONDS NOW Learn More about Domestic Violence Bail Bonds

What You Need to Know

  • California law requires police to arrest the primary aggressor in any domestic violence call. Bail is set based on injury severity, prior history, and whether weapons were involved.
  • Emergency protective orders are typically issued at the time of arrest, restricting where you can go and who you can contact. An attorney can petition to modify these.
  • Bail for misdemeanor domestic violence usually starts around $10,000. Felony domestic violence with great bodily injury can reach $100,000 or more.
  • Violating bail conditions in a domestic violence case results in immediate re-arrest and forfeiture of the bond. CityWide can walk you through your specific conditions.

Felony bail in California can reach six figures or higher. The size of the bail should never be the reason someone stays in jail. CityWide Bail Bonds handles high-value felony bonds statewide, with the resources and payment plan options to make it work for your family.

POST FELONY BAIL BONDS NOW Learn More about Felony Bail Bonds

What You Need to Know

  • Felony bail in California is set according to each county's bail schedule, with judges having discretion to increase or reduce amounts at arraignment.
  • Common felony bail ranges: robbery $50,000 to $100,000, burglary $25,000 to $50,000, assault with a deadly weapon $50,000 to $75,000, drug trafficking $100,000 and up.
  • California Penal Code 995 motions and bail reduction hearings can lower bail amounts. Having an attorney present at arraignment is critical for felony cases.
  • CityWide accepts collateral for large felony bonds, including real estate equity, vehicles, and other assets, in addition to flexible payment plans on the premium.

A misdemeanor charge does not mean a night in jail has to turn into a week. CityWide posts misdemeanor bail across all 58 California counties, and for many local police station bookings, we can have you released in under two hours.

POST MISDEMEANOR BAIL BONDS NOW Learn More about Misdemeanor Bail Bonds

What You Need to Know

  • Common misdemeanor charges: petty theft, vandalism, simple assault, trespassing, public intoxication, reckless driving, and first-offense DUI.
  • Misdemeanor bail in California typically ranges from $500 to $10,000 depending on the charge and the county bail schedule.
  • Many misdemeanor defendants qualify for cite-and-release or O.R. release. If bail is set, CityWide moves fast to minimize your time in custody.
  • Even a misdemeanor conviction can affect employment, housing, and professional licenses. Getting out quickly lets you focus on your defense from day one.

Drug charges in California range from simple possession to large-scale trafficking, and bail amounts vary just as widely. Whether it's a personal use charge or a felony distribution case, CityWide Bail Bonds is ready to post bail and get you home.

POST DRUG POSSESSION BAIL BONDS NOW Learn More about Drug Possession Bail Bonds

What You Need to Know

  • Proposition 47 reclassified simple possession of most drugs as a misdemeanor in California, often resulting in lower bail or cite-and-release for first offenses.
  • Possession for sale, transportation, and drug trafficking remain felonies with bail ranging from $20,000 to $500,000 or higher depending on the substance and quantity.
  • Federal drug charges carry much higher bail amounts and require a federal bail bond, which CityWide can also assist with through our network of federal bail agents.
  • Prior drug convictions, proximity to schools or parks, and involvement of minors all increase bail substantially in California drug cases.

Assault charges in California cover a wide spectrum, from simple assault without contact to assault with a deadly weapon and attempted murder. Bail amounts vary just as dramatically. Call CityWide the moment of arrest and we start the process immediately.

POST ASSAULT BAIL BONDS NOW Learn More about Assault Bail Bonds

What You Need to Know

  • Simple assault (PC 240) is a misdemeanor with bail typically set between $2,500 and $10,000. Assault with a deadly weapon (PC 245) is a felony with bail starting around $30,000.
  • Assault resulting in great bodily injury adds a sentence enhancement and increases bail significantly, often to $75,000 or more.
  • Assault on a police officer, firefighter, or other protected person carries enhanced bail and mandatory minimum sentences.
  • If a weapon was used or the victim was a protected class, expect bail to be set at the higher end of the county schedule. CityWide can handle any amount.

No Hidden Fees. Ever.

How Much Does a Bail Bond Cost in California?

California law sets the bail bond premium at exactly 10 percent (10%) of the total bail amount. This is regulated by the California Department of Insurance. No licensed bail bondsman can legally charge more or less.

That 10% is a one-time, non-refundable fee. It is not returned if the case is dismissed or if the defendant is found not guilty. What you are paying for is the bondsman's guarantee to the court that the defendant will appear. The person who signs the bail bond contract is called the indemnitor or co-signer, and they are responsible for ensuring the defendant appears at all court dates.

$10,000 bail $1,000 premium
$25,000 bail $2,500 premium
$50,000 bail $5,000 premium
$100,000 bail $10,000 premium
$250,000 bail $25,000 premium

Common Questions

California Bail Bond Frequently Asked Questions

When someone is arrested, a judge sets bail at arraignment. A bail bondsman posts the full amount with the court in exchange for a non-refundable 10% premium. The defendant is released and must appear at all court dates. If they fail to appear, the bond is forfeited and a bench warrant is issued immediately.

California law requires bail bondsmen to charge exactly 10% of the total bail amount. This is regulated by the California Department of Insurance. A $20,000 bail requires a $2,000 premium. This fee is non-refundable regardless of case outcome. CityWide offers flexible payment plans on this premium.

After a bail bond is posted, local police station jails typically release within 1 to 2 hours. County jails average 2 to 8 hours due to booking volume. CityWide agents begin the paperwork process the moment you call, minimizing total time in custody.

Yes. A co-signer can request to be exonerated from a bail bond, but this typically requires the defendant to return to custody first. If you have concerns about a defendant's behavior or court compliance, contact CityWide immediately to discuss your options.

The 10% premium paid to the bail bondsman is non-refundable regardless of outcome. If you paid cash bail directly to the court, that amount is returned after the case concludes, minus any court fees. With a bail bond, you pay 10% for the bondsman's guarantee service, not as a deposit.

A standard first-offense DUI is typically a misdemeanor with bail between $5,000 and $10,000. A felony DUI, which involves injury, death, or a third offense, carries bail that commonly starts at $25,000 and can exceed $100,000 depending on severity and the county bail schedule.

Yes. CityWide Bail Bonds operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year including all holidays. Arrests do not follow business hours and neither do we. Call 1-833-385-5245 any time and a licensed agent answers immediately.

A bail hold means a separate agency, such as ICE or another jurisdiction, has placed a detainer on the defendant. A bail bond cannot secure release while a hold is active. The hold must be resolved first. CityWide can explain the specific hold situation and connect you with the right resources.

Not always. For smaller bail amounts, the 10% premium alone is often sufficient. For large felony bonds or high-risk situations, collateral such as real estate equity, vehicles, or other assets may be required. CityWide works with each client individually to find the best option.

If a defendant fails to appear in court, the judge issues a bench warrant and the bail bond is forfeited. The bondsman typically has 180 days to return the defendant to custody before the full bail amount is owed to the court. Contact CityWide immediately if a court date is missed.
