There are three typical levels of bail bonds out there; County Bail Bonds, State Bail Bonds, and Federal Bail Bonds. If you find yourself in a situation where you require a Federal Bail Bond, chances are you or the person you are filing for stands accused of a very serious crime.
Unfortunately, for friends and family of the accused, Federal Bail Bonds can quickly get very expensive. This is due to the increased flight risk someone accused of a federal level crime typically poses. When a company like ATX Bail Bonds agrees to deliver a Federal Bail Bond, they are additionally promising the court that the accused will be present at all of his scheduled court hearings among other responsibilities.
What crimes do Federal Bail Bonds cover?
Federal Crimes are generally viewed as more severe crimes that usually involve narcotics, large amounts of money, injuries or deaths. This includes (but is not limited to):
- Murder
- Rape
- Arson
- Sale of illegal drugs
- Grand theft
- Kidnapping
Federal Bail Bonds cost more money because of the severity of the crimes committed, and Usually the percentage Bail Bond agencies collect is around 10% for State Bail Bonds and 15% for Federal Bail Bonds.
