Detainees bail is set by the judge
When someone is arrested in Las Vegas, that individual is taken to one of four detention centers in the area.
There will be a hearing where the judge will determine a bail amount that must be paid in order for the accused to be released. The entire amount of the bail can be paid. An alternative course of action is to hire a lawyer to try to get the bail amount lowered. If a detainee does not want to spend a lot of time waiting in the detention center, a bail bondsman can be hired for (15%) of the set bail amount.
How does a Bail Bond in work?
Your friend or loved one may ask you to contact a bondsman for assistance. You will be required to pay (15%) of the bail amount that was set by the court as a fee for service. You may also be required to put up some form of bail bond collateral that is sufficient to cover the full amount of bail. The bail bondsman will then arrange for the full bail with the jail to begin the release process for the detainee.
Obligations of a Bail Bond co-signor
If you make a bail agreement with a bondsman, your responsibility as a co-signor has just begun. You will need to make sure that the accused appears for all scheduled court dates and that the (15%) fee is paid in full to the bondsman. You give power of attorney to the bondsman and run the risk of losing whatever property you put up as bail bond collateral.

Types of Collateral that can be used for the bail bond
You can use cash, money from bank accounts, or a credit card as collateral on the bond. Other items that are good for bail bond collateral include your home or other property, land, vehicles, gold and silver coins, jewelry, firearms, or any item of value that can be pawned.
If the accused shows up for court dates:
As long as the accused shows up for all legal proceedings, you will only owe the (15%) to the bondsman. Anything you put up as collateral will be released.
If the Accused skips their court dates
If the defendant flees, the bail bondsman has 6 months to locate and return the accused to the detention center, or the bondsman will owe the court the full bail amount. This means that as a co-signor, you will be responsible for the full bail amount or lose the property you put up for collateral. If you are concerned that the accused will not return to court, you can call the bondsman to cancel the bond, give the whereabouts of the defendant, and have that individual arrested and returned to jail. This will release from your obligation from the bond agreement. If the defendant does not show for court the bond company could send a bounty hunter to search for them.
