Victorville Bail Bonds and Barstow Bail Bonds have a different process from those of other parts of California.  Make sure that you are dealing with a bail bondsman that understands the idiosyncrasies of the High and Low Desert.

For example, if you don’t bail somebody out of the local smaller jails such as Victorville or Needles, it is likely that they will get transferred to another jail such as the West Valley Detention Centerin Rancho Cucamonga.

Alternatively, a defendant that a low risk could be transferred to the Adelanto Detention Center.  Such a transfer could delay somebody getting released from jail by as much as 12 or even 36 hours.

We generally recommend to our customers to start the bail process as fast as possible to avoid transfers and any unnecessary delays.

SETTING OF BAIL AMOUNTS

San Bernardino County, like most counties, sets its own bail schedule, an official document laying out bail amounts. The San Bernardino County Bail Schedule is set by a local panel of judges.  Keep in mind that it is very possible that your bail could be different than the bail schedule for many reasons.

For example, police officers have some discretion during an arrest to potentially raise bail if they believe a particular defendant is a flight risk or there are other mitigating circumstances. Or conversely, a judge may lower bail when the defendant goes to court because the judge may believe that a particular defendant does not represent a risk to the community.

Judges have a significant amount of latitude with bail, having the ability to raise or lower bail or release a defendant on their own recognizance.

GOING TO COURT

The courthouse location where a defendant will go to court depends on many factors such as the type of crime and the jurisdiction where the alleged crime occurred.  Your bail bondsman should be able to provide the address and times for your court appearance.

Although your bondsman can’t give legal advice, often they can help you navigate through the routine idiosyncrasies of the San Bernardino County legal system.

Whether you chose to have legal representation (an attorney) can be a complicated manner.

You may fined our Bail Bond Resources page helpful. Each defendant needs to make the final decision. Contrary to general public opinion, a public defender is not always free.

At the conclusion of the case, defendants are often asked to pay a reasonable amount according to their financial recourses.
