In the world of bail bonds, an Indemnitor is someone who agrees to co-sign for a friend or family member when they need a bail bond to be released from jail. This isn’t a role you should take lightly, particularly if your loved one is facing serious charges. Before you agree, you should talk to the bail bonds agency and seriously ask yourself if you’re in a position where you feel comfortable acting as your loved one’s Indemnitor

Your biggest responsibility when you agree to become an Indemnitor is taking the financial risk. This goes far deeper than putting up the 10% fee needed to establish the bail bond. If your loved one fails to make all of their scheduled court appearances, you are on the hook for the entire amount of their bail bond. If the bail is small enough, that might not seem like a huge risk, however, if they face serious charges you could conceivably lose your home, car, and retirement savings.

By making you bear the financial burden of your friend’s actions, the bail bonds company hopes that you will be motivated to see that your friend follows all the rules connected to their bail deal and also shows up to court.

The other thing you should discuss with the bail bonding agency before you agree to sign a contract is who is financially responsible for covering the cost of recovery if your loved one not only fails to appear in court but also decides to flee the region. Some bail bonds businesses have been known to bill the Indemnitor in an attempt to recoup the cost of the recovery. This is something that should be discussed before the bail bonds contract is covered.

The next thing to consider is if you can handle the fee the bail bonding agency charges before they will bond your loved one out of jail. The fee is 10% of the set bail price. If you’re covering the fee, you need to understand that it won’t be reimbursed. You have to decide if you’re willing to lose that amount of money, or if you should create another contract with your loved one that explains how and when they’ll repay you.

If you decide that you are willing to take the risk and act as your loved one’s Indemnitor, you should contact Memphis Bail Bonds. We have a reputation for providing compassionate service, free bail bonds consultations, affordable payment plans, zero-interest bail, and more

A bulk of the people who contact Memphis Bail Bonds need bail following a DUI arrest. Most of these individuals are good people who simply made a bad choice and are desperate to return to normal life. If you have just been arrested for a DUI in Tennessee, there are a few things you need to know.

The first is that you might have to remain in jail for a while. The reason for this is because the policy is that you can’t be released until you’ve sobered up. The more you had to drink, the longer you’ll remain incarcerated.

The cost of your bail is the next thing to consider. The exact amount of the bail required can vary depending on if this is your first DUI if you’re facing any additional charges, and if anyone was hurt because you decided to drink and drive. If this is your first DUI and you don’t face additional charges, your bail should be about $5,000. If you have that amount, you can pay it yourself. If you don’t, you can contact Memphis Bail Bonds and we’ll see what we can do. If we sign a contract with you, you’ll owe us $500 which will not be returned to you.

Once you are released from jail you’ll need to act quickly. The first thing you should do is arrange to get your vehicle. It was most likely impounded following your arrest. Getting it back means paying the towing bill and covering the impound fees. Most impound lots charge for each day your car is there, so it’s in your best interest to get it back as quickly as possible.

The next thing you want to do is contact the DMV and arrange a hearing. It’s the DMV, not the court, that determines if you can keep driving following a DUI. If you contact the DMV within 10 days of your arrest, you can arrange a hearing and argue that instead of suspending your driver’s license, they should fit your car with an ignition interlock device. The device includes a breathalyzer. If you breathe into it and don’t have any alcohol in your system, you’re free to drive. If you’ve been drinking, the ignition remains locked.
If you don’t book a hearing with the DMV, your driver’s license will be suspended within thirty days of your arrest.

· 24/7 Bail bond service

It’s the time of year when many young adults are preparing for their first semester of college. In most cases, this is the first time they have lived without the supervision and guidance of their parents. One of the things collegebound students should already be reviewing is how they can make sure that they have fun and manage to stay safe during their freshman year.

Always Be Mindful of Your Safety

The great thing about living in a dorm is that the close living quarters means forming a tight bond with many of the people living on your floor. The downside to living in a dorm is that the sense of family and friendship can cause you to become lax when it comes to your safety. The biggest problem many students encounter while living in the dorm is that they become so comfortable that they start neglecting to lock their doors.

From day one, get into the habit of locking your door and double-checking the lock each time you enter and leave your dorm room.

Establish the Buddy System

While staying in your dorm and only going to classes will keep you safe, it’s not much fun. Rather than locking yourself away, get into the habit of creating a buddy program when you go out. Make a deal with a few different friends that no one goes home without the others and to keep an eye on one another the entire time you’re out and having a good time.

Keep Your Phone Charged

Each time you leave your dorm room make sure your phone is fully charged and that it’s easily accessible. It’s your first line of defense if you get into trouble while you’re out.

Pay Attention to Your Surroundings

When you’re out and about, pay attention to your surroundings. Stay in brightly lit areas. Stick to areas that are populated and heavily patrolled by campus security. Keep your eyes on the environment rather than on your phone.

Get Your Own Drinks

It doesn’t matter if you’re at a party, relaxing in your own room, or at a local pizza place, always get your own drinks. You should also never leave your drink unattended. If for some reason you do have to walk away from your drink, discard the unfinished portion and get yourself a new one.

Don’t be Afraid to Contact Campus Security

If your friends leave without you, it’s better to contact campus security and have them give you a ride back to your dorm than to try to walk home alone. Remember, that they’re paid to protect you.

Following these safety tips and using common sense provides you with the tools needed to stay safe while also enjoying your first year of college life.

Establish Patterns for Contacting Loved Ones

While you don’t necessarily want to always use the same route for going to classes and parties, you do want to establish good patterns when it comes to checking in with friends and family. Checking in on a specific day of the week and close to the same time each time is a good warning system if something goes wrong. If you don’t check-in, they know that they should contact the authorities and have someone do a physical check on you.

If you’re wondering if you can go to jail for instigating an online scam, the answer is yes.

If you wondering if you absolutely will go to jail for an online scam you’ve run, the answer isn’t as clear.

The first thing you need to understand is that it doesn’t matter what you’re doing, if you’re using a dishonest method for getting money out of people, you’re running a scam and that is always illegal. It doesn’t matter if you managed to acquire $20 or $20,000, the scam was still illegal. If the police catch on to what you’re doing and have enough evidence, you will be charged.

The types of internet crimes individuals have been charged with in Tennessee include:

• Phishing
• Online credit card fraud
• Romance scams
• Ponzi schemes
• Greeting card scams
• Bank loan scams
• Identity theft scams
• Craigslist scams

The amount of money you collected via the online scam will influence whether you’ll go to jail if you’re convicted and also how long you’ll be imprisoned.

If the scam had minimal financial consequences, it’s likely that you’ll be charged with a misdemeanor. While the sentencing could include a year in jail, the judge may decide that you only have to pay a fine or do community service. You could also be placed on probation.

If you acquired a larger sum of money, it’s likely you’ll be charged with a felony. In that case the likelihood of you being sent to jail increases. If you’re convicted, the consequences could include being sentenced to time in a state prison, massive fines, and felony probation. The number of victims involved in the scam as well as your criminal history can also play a huge role in how much time you spend in jail as a result of internet crimes.

A stint in jail will likely be only one of the hardships you face following a guilty conviction for perpetrating an online scam. It’s likely that your victims will decide to file civil suits against you as well.

Getting bailed out of jail is a privilege, not a requirement. There are certain things you need to do to make sure your bail bond is revoked.

Stay Out of Trouble

The main reason bail gets revoked is because people simply can’t stay out of trouble. While you’re out on bail, you’re not supposed to engage in any type of criminal behavior. Even if you’re not actually doing anything, but are simply hanging out with people who are committing crimes, your bail can be revoked and you’ll go back to jail.

Failing to Make a Court Appearance

When you accept a bail bond, you enter into an agreement with the bonding agency. In exchange for them bailing them out, you agree to make all your court appearances. That means every single court appearance. Too many people assume that a certain court appearance isn’t important and they don’t show up. As soon as the bail bonds agency hears about the failure to appear in court, they revoke the bond.

Failing to Make Payments

If the bail bonding agency agreed to a payment plan to cover the 10% they charged when they bail you out, they expect those payments to be made on time. Failing to do so means you’ve broken the contract, leaving them free to revoke your bail.

Failing to follow the Judge’s Instructions

When the judge set bail, they may have also given you a list of things you aren’t allowed to do while you’re out on bail. This list often includes going to certain places, leaving town, engaging in certain pastimes, and even restricting who you hang out with. If you fail to follow these instructions to the letter, your bail could be revoked.

The good news is that the vast majority of people who are released on a bail bond do an excellent job of following the instructions and never have to worry about being sent back to jail simply because they failed to honor their bail bonds agreement.

If you’ve been arrested for a DUI, you shouldn’t expect to be bailed out of jail right away. First, it’s going to take a little time for you to be booked and processed. After that, you’ll be kept in jail until you have sobered up. They simply won’t release you until you’re no longer intoxicated.

The good news is that while you’re sobering up, you can start planning for your future, which includes how you plan to get out of jail.

By this point, you should have already been told how much bail money is required for you to be released from jail. Don’t assume that just because you don’t personally have that much money, that you’ll be stuck in jail forever. You won’t.

One of the first questions we’re usually asked during the free online bail bonds consultation is how long before you’ll be released from jail. While we wish could provide you with an exact number, the truth is that it varies from one client to another.

The good news is that if you do require any of these things, we will advise you on how to quickly get them so that the bail bond process experiences a minimal delay.

Once we’ve hammered out the terms of the contract, we don’t waste any time getting to the jail and posting your bail bond. Once we’ve done this, the length of time it takes to process your bail is out of our hands. We can say that in most cases, it takes between 30 minutes and 24 hours to process the bail.

One of the biggest challenges people face after they’ve been arrested is money. Getting arrested puts a serious cramp on a person’s already strained budget. It’s amazing how fast the expenses add up. Things that stress your budget include:

• Having to take time off work for court dates and meetings with your lawyer
• Legal bills
• Bail
• The cost of transportation to the courthouse and your lawyer’s office
• Fines

Here at Memphis Bail Bonds, we understand exactly how difficult a single arrest, even for minor charges, can be on your budget and we want to help.

The first way we help is by reducing how much bail money you need before you’re released. Rather than paying the entire amount, which is what you’d have to do if you decide to bail yourself out of jail, all you have to do is pay us 10% of whatever your bail is. That 10% is the only fee we charge.

We understand that in some cases, the 10% is difficult to come up with. Don’t assume that just because you don’t have 10% of the required bail that you’re out of luck. We still have some more options that are designed to make your life easier.

The first thing we try to do is set up a flexible payment plan. The goal of this payment program is to ease your financial burden as much as possible. The payment plan is fully customizable so that you have the best chance of staying on top of all your financial obligations.

While we can’t offer it to everyone, clients who meet our approval process are entitled to zero-down payment plans. The approval process involves having good credit and a reliable source of income.

In many cases, we don’t require clients who have a solid work history to provide us with any collateral, though that is handled on a case-by-case basis.

Our flexible bail bonds payment program is just one of the reasons you should turn to Memphis Bail Bonds when you need help covering your bail. Additional reasons we’re the first choice in the bail bonds industry include:

• Simple contracts
• 24/7 service
• Phone consultations
• Online consultations
• Zero worry about hidden fees
• Zero-interest bail bond
• Fast service
• Discretion
