Understanding Collateral for Bail Bonds
When bail is high, collateral is often required to secure a bond. Knowing what is accepted and how it works can make the process easier and less stressful.
Acceptable Types of Collateral
Vehicles with titles
Real estate deeds
Cash or certified funds
Valuable personal property
When Collateral Is Returned
If the defendant attends all court dates and meets bond conditions, collateral is returned when the case concludes.
If the bond is forfeited, collateral may be used to cover costs owed to the court.
