What Juveniles Face vs. What Adults Face

los angeles bail bonds

Legally, anyone 17 or younger is considered a juvenile. When a person turns 18, they become a legal adult. A lot people enjoy this time because they feel they have more freedom, and in some respects, they do. However, in addition to the fun that comes with turning 18, there are also added responsibilities. There are big differences between juveniles and adults, especially when it comes to legal matters.

If juveniles are arrested for shoplifting or graffiti, they may have to perform community service and pay some fines, but they will not be sent to prison. They would stand before a judge who would report the consequences, then they would be released back to their parents. If an adult were to be arrested, they would face a jury who would decide whether to convict them of the crime or not. If they are convicted, they would be sent to prison.

For adults, trial may not happen for quite some time. So they have two options: wait out this time in jail, or bail out and return home. Juveniles do not have this option because they are released back to their parents.

We at Arcadia Bail Bond Store strongly urge adult defendants and their family and friends to bail out of jail with a bail bond. This is more affordable and flexible than cash bail and you will have a trustworthy bail agent to assist you.

Who Benefits from Bail Bonds?

los angeles bail bonds

Believe it or not, the defendant in jail is not the only person who benefits from posting bail with a bail bond.

  • Immediate family – They get to have their loved one back home. No more jail visits and empty seats at the dinner table.
  • Employers – The defendant can return to work and earning an income again.
  • Friends – The whole gang can reunite without worrying that the defendant is going to miss out on barbecues, or other fun outings.
  • Co-signers – Relationships between these people and the defendant can strengthen. The defendant knows these people are really banking on them to turn their life around and take this matter seriously. The defendant does not want to let them down, especially knowing they are spending money and pledging collateral in their name.

There is much to gain and little to lose when Alhambra Bail Bond Store is involved in the process to make it easier.

Why You Should Know CA’s Gun Laws

los angeles bail bonds

Would you be surprised if we told you that California has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the United States? Gun control is always a hot subject, and it is one that will never please 100% of the people. The best you can do is educate yourself on the current gun laws in California. Even if you are not a gun-owner, knowing these laws can still be of use to you for your safety and the safety of others. Here are some laws you should know:

  • Background checks are required for anyone wishing to purchase a gun, which also includes a written test.
  • Guns must be purchased through state-licensed dealers.
  • The majority of assault weapons and .50 caliber rifles are illegal.
  • A person may only purchase one handgun per month.
  • There is a 10-day waiting period before a buyer can receive the gun.
  • All guns must be micro stamped, so when it is fired, a serial number attached to the gun and the owner is stamped onto the bullet and casing.
  • There is a Gun Violence Restraining order that keeps weapons out of the hands of dangerous people.
  • If a person believes a friend or family member, is planning to use their gun improperly or to inflict harm, they can report this to the police who will then confiscate the guns and investigate the claim.

You see how even just knowing these laws can be helpful? There are many other laws that you can read up on as well.

Never Give Up Something Important

los angeles bail bonds

When you are trying to bail a friend or family member out of jail, you are already under a lot of stress. Do not add to that stress by using a bail bond company that requires you to put up something as collateral. Instead, come to Alhambra Bail Bond Store to bail your loved one out of jail.

At Alhambra Bail Bond Store, we only need a signature as collateral when we have a working co-signer. For those of you who might not know what collateral is, here is a definition. Collateral is a form of back up payment that is equal to the amount of money being promised that will be taken if payments are not met. With bail bond companies, this means that if you do not pay for the entire bail bond, the bail bond company takes whatever you put up as collateral as payment.

With Alhambra Bail Bond Store, you do not have to put something up as collateral when we have the signature of a working co-signer. This way, you do not have to face the added stress of the possibility of losing something of yours.

Bail your loved one out of jail without risking something of yours by calling 877-793-2245 or by clicking Chat With Us now.

Tips To Save Money for Your Bail Bond

los angeles bail bonds

People are always looking for ways to earn more money, but they rarely look at ways they can save more. Here are some helpful tips that you might want to consider so you can save money and put it into your emergency fund. This way, you are ready in case you ever need to suddenly use it for something like paying for a bail bond.

  • Do not go shopping without a list! Buyers are more likely to spend more money when they shop without a list.
  • Cancel the gym membership and workout at home and outdoors.
  • Cancel unnecessary subscription services like Hulu, Netflix, and gossip magazines.
  • Cook meals more and eat out less.
  • Take an extra percentage of your paycheck for your emergency/ savings fund from the percentage of your paycheck that you allocate for leisure spending.
  • Keep track of your spending. Make a spreadsheet. Make budgets for groceries, and pleasure and do not allow yourself to exceed those budgets.

You can do additional research online for easy ways to save money. Each way may save what appears to be a small amount of money, but those small savings definitely add up.

We hope you will never need to use those funds, especially on a bail bond, but if you do, please contact Avalon Bail Bond Store. We will get you the most affordable bail bond with an ideal payment plan.

How You Should, and Shouldn’t, Conduct Yourself in Court

los angeles bail bonds

How you represent yourself at your court hearing is nearly as important as the case your lawyer is making. Your body language, dress, and overall presentation, speaks volumes to the jury, the judge, and others. Granted, some defendants will not be able to present themselves as neatly and professionally as others because they were not able to post bail, but our team at Alhambra Bail Bond Store will make sure that is not you. We will help bail you out of jail. Then, you will be able to live at home and better prepare for court. After posting bail with us, follow these general rules of how you should and shouldn’t conduct yourself in court.

  • The night before court, try and get some good sleep.
  • Dress professionally and conservatively, do not overdo the makeup and jewelry.
  • Remove sunglasses and hats.
  • Do not chew gum.
  • Arrive to court early and use the restroom before court begins.
  • Acknowledge the judge as “Your Honor.”
  • Speak and stand when asked to.
  • Answer only what you are asked.
  • Answer yes or no verbally rather than nodding or shaking your head.
  • Turn your cell phone off.
  • Leave young children at home.
  • Remain calm and poised; do not become angry or argumentative.

You and your lawyer will go over court procedures beforehand as preparation, including questions they will ask, questions the prosecution will likely ask, and how to answer both. During court, your lawyer will protect you as much as possible, but remember to leave everything in their hands and not get frustrated.

That being said, if you need a bail bond now, for yourself or a loved one, contact Alhambra Bail Bond Store immediately. We can be reached 24/7, online and at 877-793-2245.
