FAQs
Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers
Here are answers to some of the most common questions our clients ask.
1. What is a surety bond?
A surety bond is a legally binding agreement in which 2nd Chance Bail Bonding guarantees to the court that a defendant will appear at all required hearings. If the defendant fails to appear, our agency is responsible for paying the full bail amount to the court.
2. How does the billing structure work for a surety bond?
In North Carolina, the fee paid to a licensed bondsman is a non-refundable service charge required to post the full bond amount and assume financial responsibility for the defendant. To make the process manageable during emergencies, we offer flexible down payment plans. Once a plan is established, we handle the court filings immediately so your focus can remain on your loved one’s release.
3. How long does it take to get someone released on a surety bond?
Once the paperwork is complete and the premium is paid, we post the bond immediately. Release times depend on the jail's processing speed, but we work as fast as possible to get your loved one home.
4. What happens if the defendant misses a court date?
If the defendant misses a scheduled court appearance, the bond may be forfeited and a warrant will be issued. It is critical that the defendant attends every hearing. We advise all clients on their obligations from day one.
5. Do you handle surety bonds outside of Wake County?
