STANDARD BAIL BOND FORMS

For most bail bonds, we have theses simple documents to sign. We provide the forms here online for your convenience:

  • Secure Bail Bond Agreement (pdf) – The Bail Bond Agreement is a contract between the bail indemnitor and the bail agency agreeing to jointly promise the court that the defendant will return for necessary court appearances. This contract outlines the fee for services and the agreements made by bail agent and the individual or individuals bailing the defendant out of jail. The Agreement also requests identifying and financial information for the indemnitor and the defendant. Bail agents are required by law to request this information. Much of the requested information is not required to complete the bail bond. Please ask the bail agent you are working with which information is needed from you.
  • Cash Bail Agreement (pdf) – The Cash Bond Agreement is a contract between the bail indemnitor and the bail agency agreeing to jointly promise the court that the defendant will return for necessary court appearances. This contract outlines the fee for services and the agreements made by bail agent and the individual or individuals bailing the defendant out of jail. The Agreement also requests identifying and financial information for the indemnitor and the defendant. Bail agents are required by law to request this information. Much of the requested information is not required to complete the bail bond. Please ask the bail agent you are working with which information is needed from you.
  • Indemnitor/Guarantor Agreement (pdf) -You take full responsibility for the defendant to show up in court when you bail someone out of jail. Most bail problems and issues such as a forgotten court date or illness are easily resolved and rarely escalate beyond a simple phone call. That said, if you are considering bailing someone out and you have reason to believe they may not show up for court or may leave the area, please, do not bail them out. You are not criminally liable, but you may be civilly liable.
  • Credit Card Non Dispute (pdf) – This form is needed when a client is using a credit card as a form of payment for the premium due on a bail bond.

BAIL BONDS FORMS FOR REAL ESTATE COLLATERAL

Our bail bond company does most bail bonds with no collateral. When collateral is required is it most often secured with real property. Real property is generally Delaware real estate, usually the home of a family member or even the home of the defendant.

When property is used as collateral for a bail bond, in addition to the basic paperwork of the Bail Bond Agreement are the following documents:

  • Mortgage Agreement (pdf) – Mortgage Agreement is a lien on the property of the indemnitor by the Surety Company (an insurance company) that underwrites our bail bonds. The lien is held by a third party (rather than the bail agent) and it is notarized for your protection. Our bail agents are notaries.
