Most people have probably seen a law enforcement television shown or movie, and know that the first thing the arresting officer typically does is read the suspect his or her Miranda Rights:
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you…
However, the bail agents of All American Bail Bonds in Santa Clarita want residents to know what happens to an arrestee after that.
“After the arresting officer escorts you to jail, you will be booked and incarcerated either until your first court date or until you can post bail,” said Inessa Chavez, vice president of All American Bail Bonds. “However, bail can be denied in some cases.”
Some cases bail may be denied to a defendant is if it is believed they are a danger to the public, or a flight risk.

Some people can afford to pay their full bail amount upfront, but most purchase a bail bond through a licensed bail agent at a company like All American Bail Bonds.
“In California, the indemnitor only pays 10 percent of the total cost of the bail amount to the bail agent, who posts the bond for them,” Chavez explained. “A bail bond represents your promise that you will attend all of your court appearances, including your judgment day.”
