Hialeah is the sixth largest city in Florida and is located in Miami-Dade County between Biscayne Bay and the Everglades. The city has become most well-known for its race tracks with the historic Hialeah Park Racing and Casino.  It all began as far back as 1922 with greyhounds and extended to horses in 1925.

What is Bail?

When someone is arrested and taken to jail, the court demands bail in exchange for the release of an inmate while he waits for his court date(s) if the arrestee is eligible.

Bail is typically set by a magistrate judge, but in Florida, most counties use a uniform bond schedule to set the amount. These bond schedules provide a menu of suggested bail amounts based on the types of crimes defendants are accused of. However, the judge has the option to increase or decrease the amount of bail based on their discretion. In some cases, for first time and low-risk offenders, the defendant is released on supervised release or own recognizance release. Both types of release will not usually require an accompanied cash bond. Nonetheless, an inmate release without a cash bond will often end up costing the defendant more than what they would have paid with just a bail bond over time.

How Much of Bail Do You Pay?

If a defendant chooses to pay the full bail amount demanded by the court, he will be required to pay 100% of the bail amount before his release. If the defendant abides by all pretrial release requirements, including appearing at all court dates, all but court fees will be refunded after a court ruling has taken place.

How Much Does a Bail Bondsman Charge?

Most people who have been incarcerated do not have the ability to pay the full amount of bail set by the court. In this case, a bail bondsman will help to get the inmate released for just a small portion of the full bail amount. However, bondsmen will only post a bond if he feels the defendant is not a flight risk.

If a suspect has been detained for a state crime, the bail bond premium will be 10% of the full bail amount. For example, if the bail amount issued by the court is $3000, the cost for a state bond will be $300.
