DUI Bail

If you have been arrested for driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, you may need to post bail to be released from the holding cell. This bail money is returned if you appear in court for your scheduled time in front of the judge.

If you have been charged with a DUI, you need to speak with an attorney about your rights. The Arizona DUI defense attorneys at Thompson & Volquardsen, P.C., have helped hundreds of clients fight the harsh sentencing of a DUI conviction. Contact us today at 602-510-9999 to learn more in a free consultation.

Three Types of Bail

The following are three basic methods of posting bail after a DUI charge:

  • Cash bail – Paying complete bail amount in cash, check, and, when allowed, credit card
  • Bail bonds – Bail is posted with borrowed money. Companies will lend money to pay any additional amount of bail the individual cannot afford. Even if the accused shows up to court on time, a bail bondsman will collect money. In general, 10% of the loan is charged as a fee.
  • Property bond – In some cases, property that is proven to be of value may be used as collateral.

After the bail has been posted and you have been released, it is time to start building a strong defense case. An attorney can provide the legal help and support you deserve.
