Bail 101
When someone is arrested, a judge sets a bail amount based on the charges, criminal history, and flight risk. Most families cannot pay the full amount in cash.
You pay Angels Bail Bonds 10% of the total bail amount (regulated by California Insurance Code § 1800.4). We post the full bond and your loved one is released. The 10% is our fee — not a deposit.

We post bonds at every Los Angeles County jail: Men’s Central Jail (441 Bauchet St), Twin Towers Correctional Facility (450 Bauchet St), Century Regional Detention Facility / Lynwood (for women), LAPD Central Division (251 E 6th St) for arrestees still in LAPD custody, and LAPD Metropolitan Jail (180 N Los Angeles St). Our agents know the intake windows and visitor protocols at each.
Event-district arrests (concerts, games, nightlife) typically go to LAPD Central Division first for booking, then transfer to Men’s Central Jail or Twin Towers within 4–12 hours. If the arrest is a misdemeanor with no priors, cite-and-release is possible at the scene. For felony or DUI arrests, expect full booking and a bail bond will be required before release. We can begin paperwork from your phone before the transfer completes.
Paperwork: 15–30 minutes from call. Posting the bond at Men’s Central or Twin Towers: 1–2 hours depending on booking queue. Physical release: another 2–6 hours at LA County jails — LA County is the largest jail system in the U.S. and release times run longer than suburban counties. Total window: 4–10 hours typical, faster mid-week mid-day.
California law (Insurance Code § 1800.4) sets the premium at 10% of the bail amount — non-refundable, paid once. The LA County bail schedule sets standard bail by charge. We also offer zero-down options and premium installments for LA County families who qualify based on stable income, employment, or collateral.
