There have recently been some unethical bail bondsmen telling people in distress that they can offer cheaper bail. This is illegal and false. The rate that you pay a bail bond agent is based on Florida state statute and regulation. In Florida the allowable premium is set at 10%. It is illegal to change this rate. If a company agrees to discount their fee, they may lose their license. Some companies try and lead you into believing that you will receive a discount but in the end actually charge you the whole amount. Always ask the rate if you feel that you are being wrongly charged. Rick’s Bail Bonds follows the state’s statutes and will always be upfront and answer all your questions.

In Ft Pierce and for St Lucie County Jail, a judge sets a bail amount for an inmate (defendant). If the defendant can’t pay the amount on their own, they can ask for help from a Bail bondsman. We handle the Bail Bond for you. To post a Bail Bond, the defendant is required to pay 10% of the bail amount. This is Florida law. You won’t pay more or less than this. For example, a bond set at $5,000 would require a $500 bail amount be paid by the defendant. Some bail bonds companies will tell you they can offer cheaper bail. If they tell you this, it is a lie.
