How Do Bail Bonds Companies Make Money?
The California bail industry is regulated by the State Department of Insurance, and this makes a lot of sense when you begin to realize that a bail bond is similar to an insurance policy. A bail bond is basically an insurance policy that guarantees a defendant will appear back in court once they've been released from jail. If they choose to skip their court dates and the bondsman is unable to locate them, the bail bond guarantees the court the full amount of the defendant's bail will be paid.
South Bay bail bonds companies take on liability when they post a bond for a defendant and they provide that service at a fee. In California, bail bondsmen are permitted to charge 10% of the total amount of a person's bail as a "premium".
