  1. Rights When Arrested: Know Your Rights

  2. Getting arrested can be a life-changing experience and getting through the bail process is only a start. Once you get released, you have a lot of responsibilities to deal with and get your life back on track. Along the way, there are many processes and some bureaucracy that you'll have to go through in order to get back on your feet. Many of these processes, however, were put in place to protect your rights as an American citizen. Here's a list of a few inherent rights that can help you deal with the overall process. The Right to Fair Bail The purpose of bail in America is to allow the release of prisoners who may not be guilty. Trials are lengthy, and it can take months for them to occur in a court of law. There is a legal system in place to prevent the loss of employment or neglect of family responsibilities. Bail exists to allow all arrested citizens to adequately prepare for their trial. This prevents overcrowding in county jails. A bail bond company can help alleviate this process by paying your entire bail amount. This will ensure your financial responsibilities are minimized by appearing to all court dates after you have paid the bail bond company their 10 e.

  3. The Right to Know Your Charges It is against the law for authorities to hold American citizens without a legal reason. This is a basic constitutional right guaranteed to all citizens. You should have what you are charged with in writing, together with your documentation of court appearances and assigned court dates. The Right to an Attorney We all know the line made famous by TV cop dramas, "You have the right to remain silent." A key phrase in that spiel includes the right to an attorney. If you've spent most or all of your available funds on a bail bonds company, you can get an attorney appointed to you for free in the form of a public defender.

  4. The Right to Due Process Be sure you have all proper documentation related to your charges, and that you have scheduled all of your court appearances. As long as you attend your court dates, you will be given a fair trial and due process of law. If you skip multiple court dates, the bail bondsman will not refund your bail cost, and may alert a bail enforcement agent to track you down. This is why it is important to attend all court dates.
