Once the bond is posted, release depends on how busy intake is. In most Northern Virginia facilities that runs one to four hours, longer on weekend nights and holidays. We give you a realistic estimate once we know the facility and the hour.

What does a co-signer take on?
A co-signer, or indemnitor, guarantees the full face amount of the bond if the defendant fails to appear — not the premium, the whole bond. It should be someone with real influence over the defendant. We put this in writing before anyone signs.

The same as anywhere in Virginia: 10 to 15 percent of the bond amount. Virginia Code § 9.1-185.10 sets that band and a licensed bondsman cannot charge outside it. Rates do not change by county, by hour, or by holiday.
