We understand that navigating the bail bond process can be complicated, which is why our experienced bond dealers are here to help you understand the situation and move forward with it.
Felony Bail Bonds
A common question we get at HB Bail Bonds is, can you bond out on a felony charge at all? Felonies are serious crimes covering numerous charges, from fraud to gun charges and murder. Our team is well-versed in the different levels of severity for felony charges, and the type of bond required may change depending on the severity of the charge, a person’s criminal history, and the judge’s decision. However, it is typically possible to release someone on a felony bond. Surety felony bonds are relatively common, and the experienced bail bondsmen at HB Bail Bonds are ready to help you through the process.
Misdemeanor Bail Bonds
Being arrested for a misdemeanor is less severe than being arrested for a felony, but they can still carry significant penalties, and misdemeanor bail bonds can be complicated. These can cover charges like public intoxication, simple assault, theft, and several non-violent crimes. Our team has the knowledge and expertise to help you deal with the situation quickly and efficiently.
Domestic Violence Bonds
Depending on the severity of injuries and the defendant’s criminal history, charges for domestic violence start as misdemeanors but often get upgraded to felony-level cases. Domestic violence bonds tend to be set higher by a judge because violence has already taken place and public safety is concerned. However, HB Bail Bonds can still help you navigate the specifics of your unique situation.

The most basic definition of an appearance bond is 10% bonds that friends or family members pay to the court that is holding your loved one. When an appearance bond is posted to the court the person who posted can receive up tp 90% of the money they posted back.
The defendant has two options for these bonds. First is to pay the entire amount of the bail set by the Judge to the court. (EX: $ 10,000 bond = $10,000 to the court). The second option is that a state licensed bail bond agency can post the bond on the defendant’s behalf for 10% of the set bond amount.
Disclaimer: All bonds in Ohio, except Recognizance Bonds, can be posted by a surety company. However, this depends on the defendant’s family’s financial situation.
