Finding The Right Lender

Emergency Jail Bonds: Are You Ready To Pay?

You absolutely can get 24/7 jail bail bonds, but are you financially ready to secure them? It is important to understand that if you ever need to get a bail bond any time day or night, weekday or weekend, you will need to have the funds at the ready to secure the bond. Here are three ways you can have that money ready or at least have access to something that can supply you with the funds you need, regardless of the day of the week or the time of the day. 

Keep Your Credit Card with the Highest Credit Limit Clear

If you are fortunate to have a credit card with a high or really high credit limit, keep it clear. Do not charge anything to this card, and let this card be your "extreme emergencies" card. That way, if you have to secure bail up to ten thousand dollars, this is the only card you will need to use to pay the bail bond agent on a Saturday night at three in the morning (for example). 

Always Have an Emergency "Slush" Fund

Savings accounts are hard to keep full. However, in instances like this, you will need every dime you have tucked away into a savings account. An emergency "slush" fund is meant for emergencies, and not much else is more of an emergency than needing to secure a bail bond 24/7. Short of a medical emergency, your emergency savings account can be used for this exact sort of incident, and you will need it. 

Be Willing to Give up an Extra Possession

Do not give up your home or your main car, if you can help it. However, if you have an extra vehicle, keep the title and registration somewhere where you can access it quickly. The title and registration of a spare car can make all the difference between securing the bail bond you need, and not securing it at all. 

Keep Valuable Jewelry Locked in a Safe for Emergencies

The Queen of England keeps Her Majesty's Crown Jewels in a safe under lock and key. In an emergency, the Queen may choose to use the jewels to secure money to rectify a major life and death situation. That is exactly how you should view any valuable jewelry you own. Lock it up, do not lose sight of it, and then use it when you are in dire need of emergency funds or you need to secure a bail bond for a family member.
