What are traffic bail bonds in Las Vegas?
Traffic bail bonds are required when an individual is arrested for a traffic violation or related offense.
Traffic can get the best of anybody. Traffic violations are the largest offenses committed by many. From speeding to running a ret light or driving on a suspended license, 24/7 Bail Bonds can help for any traffic bonding needs.
Similar to regular bail bonds, traffic bail bonds are intended to be used in connection with traffic violations. Once a bond is posted, the defendant agrees to appear at all Las Vegas, Nevada court hearings. Failure to comply means the bond will be forfeited.
Traffic violations often end in a citation being issued. There are some serious instances where a person might be arrested and held in jail pending the appropriate hearings, and it could be necessary to get the appropriate Bail Bond.
Timeline
Following an arrest, the arrestee is jailed. They will go through a booking process while they wait for a bail hearing. During the hearing, the court will set a bail amount large enough to guarantee the arrestee will show up for further court dates. When the bail is determined by the court, the arrestee might be released by:
- Paying the full amount, which is the easiest way to be sprung from jail. The money is returned once the defendant has appeared at all hearings, or
- Paying 15% of the bail amount to a bondsman who arranges for the defendant’s release, or
- Hiring a criminal defense attorney who may be able to assist in getting a bail amount reduced or dropped. However, this process can take weeks.
