How much does a bail bond cost in Hemet?
In California, the usual bail bond premium is 10% of the bail amount, a rate filed with the California Department of Insurance. Bail itself is set by the Riverside County Superior Court bail schedule or by a judge.
| Bail amount | Typical premium (10%) |
|---|---|
| $10,000 | $1,000 |
| $25,000 | $2,500 |
| $50,000 | $5,000 |
| $100,000 | $10,000 |
The premium is the fee for the bond and is not refunded. Payment plans are available, and qualified co-signers may be approved with a low down payment.
How long does release take?
After the bond is posted, Byrd usually releases people within 2 to 6 hours. Weekday daytime is fastest; Friday and Saturday nights are slowest because bookings peak. If the person has been moved to Robert Presley in Riverside, release usually takes 6 to 12 hours.
How the bail process works
- Call 888-669-0295. Give us the person's name, date of birth and, if you have it, the booking number.
- We find the jail and confirm the bail amount, and whether bail can be posted now or a court hearing or another hold has to come first.
- Sign the paperwork by phone or e-signature. No office visit is needed.
- We post the bond at the jail, and the jail completes the release.
Hemet court: which courthouse?
Hemet criminal cases are usually heard at the Banning Justice Center, 311 East Ramsey Street, Banning, CA 92220. The Hemet Courthouse at 880 N. State Street handles family law matters, such as domestic violence restraining orders, not most criminal cases. Always check the court notice for the exact courthouse, date and department. We send court date reminders to every client.
Picking someone up after release
- Call the jail before you drive to confirm where the person is and that they are being released.
- Byrd (Murrieta): park in the public lot in front of the jail on Auld Road.
- If the person was moved to Robert Presley or Larry D. Smith, the pickup location changes too.
