If you or a loved one has recently been released from jail after working with a bail bond company, there are a few important things to prioritize. Here is a short list of some of the most important things to take care of while out on bail.
- Attend all mandatory court appearances. The purpose of paying bail or hiring a bail bond company to assist you in covering this cost is to guarantee to the courts that you will show up for all your mandated court appearances. If you fail to show up to even one of them, you will face serious consequences, including going back to jail. Showing up to court when necessary, should be your top priority while out on bail, so don’t do anything that might jeopardize your ability to attend your court appearances.
- Stay out of trouble. You don’t want to do anything that might affect your legal standing, especially while out on bail, which means you need to obey all laws as well as anything that was outlined in your bonding contract or bail conditions. This may include staying sober for the entire duration of your release.
- Keep contact with your bail bond company. Your bail bond company can remind you of court dates if you forget them. You’ll also want to update them with any changes of address or additional personal information changes.
