We’ve lost count of the number of times a client has asked us when we’ll return their money to them. We understand why we get asked this question all the time.

One of the great things about bail is that once your case reaches its conclusion, you get the money back. What some people don’t fully understand is that the money is only returned to you if you posted a cash bail, which means you either paid the entire bail from your account or you convinced a loved one to front you the money.

The fact that you turned to Memphis Bail Bonds means that you didn’t have the funds needed for cash bail. We do things differently. We post a bail bond. Essentially, we post the entire price of your bail, but we don’t do this for free. Before we post the bail bond, we require that you pay us 10% of whatever your bail was set at. This is our fee. You won’t get it back.

Even though you won’t get any money back from Memphis Bail Bonds, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t turn to us when you need help covering your bail. We’re the best and most reliable bail bonds agencies in Tennessee. Since we understand exactly how tight money can be, we’ve made every effort to make bail as affordable as possible.

We provide zero percent interest on our flexible payment plans, which makes bail even more feasible for most people. Best of all, we provide outstanding customer service.

When you turn to Memphis Bail Bonds, you can rest assured that all of your questions will be answered, we’ll post the bail bond as soon as you’ve signed our bail bond contract, and we’ll treat you with the respect you deserve.

We strongly urge you to learn as much about the Tennessee bail bonds program as you can. We provide everyone with a free consultation during which we’ll not only provide an in-depth explanation about how bail bonds work but also answer any questions you have.

We’re available 24/7 so contact us as soon as you realize that you need help making bail.

Most of us know that a bail bond is something that exists so that you can work and spend time with your family while you wait for your criminal case to make its way through the incredibly slow legal process. But what happens if you’re arrested in a state that’s not your home state? Are you still eligible for a bail bond?

Getting arrested in a state that isn’t your home state is complicated, which is why you should try to stay out of trouble while you’re traveling. Sadly, sometimes staying out of trouble simply isn’t possible. And, even more sadly, some people are falsely accused while they’re traveling.

If you’re not a resident of Tennessee when you’re arrested, you’ll likely have to attend a bail hearing. The judge will look at the charges, explore your history, and try to decide if they think you’ll return to Tennessee for your appointed court dates. If they think you will, they’ll likely grant bail.

Great! One hurdle handled. But if you can’t afford to pay your bail, how are you supposed to get released?

Your best option for getting a bail bond in your situation is finding a bail bonds agency that is willing to take on something that’s called a transfer bond.

Getting a transfer bond takes a little more time than a traditional bail bond and it involves using two bail bond agencies as opposed to one. What you’ll have to do is find a bail bonds agency in both Tennessee and your home state who are willing to work together. You should also be prepared to owe the agencies a little more money since, in addition to your 10% fee, you’ll also have to pay a Transfer Bond Execution Fee which generally costs between $50 and $100.

The good news is that apart from paying a little more and finding two bail bond agencies that are willing to work together to make the transfer bond work, from your side of things there is very little difference on how the process works. The two bail bond agencies handle all the paperwork and maneuvering of funds. Once all that’s taken care of, the Tennessee agency handles the paperwork and gets you released from jail.

When you find yourself in need of a Tennessee bail bond, you can’t go wrong with Memphis Bail Bonds. We’re home to the zero percent interest bail bonds and the free consultation.

If you had a bad day today, there is always tomorrow. However, this does become a bit of a problem if you are trapped in a bad situation, such as being stuck behind bars.

You will eventually get out of jail, however the lives of all of the people that you care about will have moved on without you. It is very easy for an arrested individual to get left behind. When someone is stuck behind bars, they miss out on so many different and important opportunities with family members and friends.

That is why a person wants to get out of jail as quickly as they possibly can. They don’t want to miss a child’s baseball game, or a friend’s milestone birthday. The best way to get out of jail quickly is by posting bail with Memphis Bail Bonds. We know how to handle it quickly.

You can talk to one of our agents at any time by calling 615-544-0000.

One of the best things about social media sites like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Twitter is the ability to quickly post all of your photos so that your friends and family can admire them.

Those same pictures can also make you an easy and attractive target to anyone who is looking for a home to break into.

The problem with posting vacation pictures on your social media account is that if you’re posting those pictures while you’re still on vacation, you are literally telling any would-be burglar that your house is standing empty. This is especially true if you happen to answer a question about how long you’re going to be gone.

Don’t assume that posting vacation pictures is the only way you can get into trouble. The same is true if you make a comment about waiting for a flight, discuss an out-of-town business trip, or even a routine lunch date. Most importantly, don’t take advantage of the option some social media sites provide allow you to share your precise location with all of your friends and family.

Most people feel comfortable sharing vacation photos on social media accounts because they reason that they are all friends and that their friends would never steal from them. But take a moment to go through your current friend’s list. How many of those people do you really know and how many are people who you’ve simply met a few times at different events or through other friends?

The first thing you should do is change your account settings so that the only people who can see your posts are your friends and family. If you also use social media for a business, then create a separate account for your business and make sure you don’t include any of your travel plans on it.

The next thing you need to do is refrain from sharing information about vacation plans, weekend getaways, and more on social media. When it comes to posting the pictures, wait until you get home. When you do decide it’s time to post those holiday snaps, make it very clear that you’re already home and that life has returned to normal.

Don’t assume that just because you’re not actively posting your vacation photos while you’re away from home that you don’t have to worry. Make it very clear to anyone you’re traveling with that you don’t want to be tagged in any of their vacation photos.

Feel free to call 615-544-0000 for an obligation-free bail consultation. We’re available 24/7.

We’re not sure how or why someone got the idea that the purpose of a bail bonds agency is to make it possible for people to not pay for the crimes they’ve committed. It’s a myth we commonly have to dispel.

The reality is that the only aspect of the legal system Memphis Bail Bonds has any interest in is the part that pertains to bail. We don’t determine if someone is guilty or innocent. We don’t help them find a lawyer. We don’t have any impact on their ability to create a good plea deal. The only thing we do is write the bail bond and insist that they make all of their court appearances.

One of the reasons so many people may assume that bail bonds agencies free people from the legal consequences of their actions is because a bail bond enables so many people to spend the days (and often months) between their arrest and their actual sentencing in their own home rather than in a jail cell. The fact that many people don’t understand just how long it takes the judicial system to move gives credence to this idea. If a person knows that their neighbor was arrested in January, freed on a bail bond and that the case still isn’t closed in June, it’s easy to see how they could think that their neighbor wasn’t going to face any legal consequences.

The only role a bail bond does is allow the person to be released from jail. It serves as a kind of financial promissory note. In exchange for the bail bond, the individual not only promises to stay out of any additional legal trouble while they are out on bail but also promises to appear at all mandatory court appearances and accept any legal consequences the court hands out if the individual is convicted of the crime they’ve been charged with. By putting up a bail bond we reduce overcrowding problems in the local jails, significantly reduce the number of taxpayer dollars that go to providing for incarcerated inmates, allow our clients to continue earning a living while they wait for their court date, and make it easier for our client to meet with their attorney and prepare a strong defense.

The bail system has become such an important aspect of the judicial system that many assume that it’s a right, something that will be granted to them as soon as they’re arrested.
The truth is that bail while bail is granted to most people, it’s not a guaranteed thing and there are some instances when bail is denied.
Here is a list of reasons you might be denied bail following your arrest.

The Judge Suspects that You’re a Flight Risk

One of the most common reasons bail is denied is because there is something about you that makes you appear to be a flight risk. This usually comes up when a person faces serious charges. Reasons a person might be considered a flight risk include that they lack strong ties to the community, they have a history of failing to appear in court, or they’ve done/said something that indicates they’ll disappear as soon as they’re released from jail.

A judge isn’t the only person who can determine if a person is a flight risk. If Memphis Bail Bonds senses that you’ll skip out on bail, they won’t agree to write you a bail bond.

Repeat Offenses

One of the things a judge looks at when they’re deciding if they should deny bail is your criminal history. If they look at your record and see that this isn’t the first time you’ve been charged with the same offense, they will get the impression that if they do approve bail, you’re going to do the same thing while you’re out on bail. They will deny bail in an attempt to reduce the amount of crime that takes place in the community.

Fear of Tampering

One of the biggest concerns judges have when they are trying to decide how to handle bail is that you’ll be released from jail and do something that will significantly alter your case. Examples of this include tampering with evidence or intimidating witnesses. If the judge suspects you’ll do something to impede your case, they’ll deny bail.

Parole Violations

If you’ve ever been on parole, the judge will take a close look at any parole violations you may have made. Your behavior while on parole tells a great deal about how you’ll behave while you’re out on bail. If there are parole violations that indicate you will flee, engage in criminal behavior, or ignore court dates while out on bail, the judge will likely deny bail.

If your bail hasn’t been denied, contact Memphis Bail Bonds and inquire about our Tennessee bail bonds program. You’ll be glad you did.

It sounds simple enough. If you can come up with 10% of the bail required, it will serve as the fee needed to secure a bail bond so you or a loved on will be released from jail. The problem is that in some cases, the bail bonds agency looks at your situation and worries that the person they’re about to bail out of jail is a flight risk. If that person fails to show up for court, the agency will forfeit the entire bail bond. In these cases, the agency will ask for collateral.
The idea is that the collateral provides their client with the incentive needed to inspire them to attend all of their mandatory court dates.

Now, you just have to figure out what you can use as collateral.

Credit Cards

Credit cards aren’t something that most people think about when they’re looking for collateral but they actually work quite well. The trick is that you must have enough credit on the card to cover the entire amount of the bail bond, which is why this method is typically only used when the bail is relatively small. The way the credit card works is that the bail bonds agency holds the money in escrow. It’s released once their client’s case is resolved.

Guns and Other Legal Firearms

Guns and other firearms are a good choice when you’re looking for collateral. Not only do they help cover the cost of bail, but since they’re locked up by the bail bonds agent, you don’t have to worry about the police seizing them or the gun getting used to commit a crime while you’re out on bail. Before guns and other firearms can be accepted as collateral, they will need to be professionally valued.

Real Estate

Real estate, particularly houses, is the most commonly used form of collateral, especially when a large bail is required. To use real estate as collateral the county courthouse must have the deed of trust on file and that deed must state that the bail bonds agency gets the property if the bail is forfeited. The bail bonds agency will place a line on the property until the case concludes. The catch with using real estate as collateral is that the legal owner can not also be the person who requires the bail bond.

Vehicles

A lot of people like to use their vehicles as collateral. This can work well provided the vehicle’s trade-in value is high enough to cover the bond, which means vehicles are usually only used to cover low bail bonds. If the vehicle is used as collateral, the bail bonds agency and current car owner sign an agreement and put the title into a trust that goes to the bail bonds agency if the bail is forfeited.

If you or a loved one suddenly finds themselves in need of a bail bond so they can get out of jail, contacting Memphis Bail Bonds is your first priority.

Call 615-544-0000 for an obligation-free consultation.

No one plans to be arrested, which means no one sets aside money to use as bail. Since no one keeps a savings account specifically for bail money, when you are arrested, you’ll likely need the services of Memphis Bail Bonds.

We don’t believe that the consultation should be a one-way conversation during which we ask all the questions and you provide answers. We want you to be comfortable with us which is why we encourage you to ask plenty of questions.

There are a few questions we wish every client would ask.

How Long Before You’re Released From Jail?

We think you should know how long it will take us to submit the bail bond and get you released from jail. Not only should you know that we’re going to work quickly, but you’ll also need to arrange for a ride home and maybe let your employers know that you’re going to be late getting to work.

The answer will depend on a few variables. We can assure you that as soon as you sign our bail bonds contract, we’ll quickly start the process of getting you released. We will quickly arrive at the jail, bail bond in hand, and turn into the necessary paperwork. After that, the amount of time it takes depends on the booking officer.

How Much Money do you Owe?

As soon as we hear the amount your bail is set at, we can tell you the exact amount of money we require from you. In the meantime, we will say that is ten percent of the set bail amount is our normal fee.

Do you Require Collateral?

This is an excellent question that we feel everyone should ask. The answer depends on your history, the charges filed against you, your community ties, and how high your bail was set. In most cases, we don’t require collateral from working signers, though there is the occasional exception.

If we do require collateral from you, we will discuss what types of items you can use as collateral. As long as you attend all of your court dates, you will get your collateral back once your case concludes.

If you or one of your loved ones has been arrested, contacting Memphis Bail Bonds is the fastest and easiest way to get them released.

Feel free to call 615-544-0000 for an obligation-free consultation. We’re available 24/7.

The concept of bail is surprisingly simple. After you’ve been arrested, you learn how much money, or bail, is required for you to be released. Once your case is closed, you’ll get that bail money back.

In theory, any money is perfect for bail, right?

Wrong.

Tennessee has something that they call suspicious bail. This doesn’t refer to forged or counterfeit money, but rather money that is suspected to have been obtained via criminal activity. A perfect example of this is money that was obtained during a burglary and that is then used to post your bail.

Suspicious bail can cause all sorts of problems for you. It’s possible that it can even result in additional charges being filed against you, which in turn would increase the amount of bail you require.

If someone believes that the money being used to post your bail was obtained via a felony, they will immediately order that your release be halted. Once this happens, a quick hearing is put together where the matter of where the money came from is discussed. During this suspicious bail hearing, the burden of proof is on you. You’ll have to explain where the money came from and why it’s being used to post your bail.

If you have a history of criminal activity, it might be in your best interest to abandon the idea of posting your own bail. Instead, you should contact Memphis Bail Bonds. Yes, we’ll charge a 10% fee, but when we write a bail bond, everyone involved in the justice department will know that it’s an honest business transaction and won’t question where the money came from. Contacting us rather than trying to pay with a suspicious bail will get you released from jail quicker and with a great deal less hassle.

Free consultations are available from Memphis Bail Bonds 24/7. We’re always available, even during major holidays. When you decide to use our services, you will enjoy a service that’s both fast and reliable.

The sooner you call 615-544-0000, the sooner we can write your bail bond and get you released from jail.

One of the interesting things that sometimes happens after a person has been arrested in Tennessee, is that they will sit in their jail cell and wait for a bail bonds agency to contact them with an offer of a bail bonds.

We’re not sure why some people seem to think bail bonds agencies are like ambulance chasing attorneys or telemarketing companies. We do feel that it’s only fair to tell you that if you’re waiting for a bail bonds agency to contact you, you’ll be waiting for a very long time.

Tennessee’s bail industry is regulated by the Tennessee Department of Insurance. They have strict rules in place that govern what bail bonds agencies can and can’t do. According to the Tennessee Department of Insurance we’re not allowed to actively solicit for business. That means we don’t call each time someone is arrested and pitch our business plan to you.

If you check out the Tennessee Department of Insurance’s website, you’ll see that it specifically states that:

“Bail agents must be solicited for bail directly by the arrestee, the arrestee’s attorney of record, or an adult friend or family member; bail agents may not solicit business.”

That means that you need to be proactive about covering your bail. If you need Memphis Bail Bonds help posting bail, you need to contact us.
