What happens when someone gets arrested?
When someone is arrested in Norwalk they are taken to one of two locations, the local Sheriff’s Station or the Los Angeles County Jail and processed as an inmate. As part of this process, their fingerprints are taken and checked against a number of databases to determine their identity and if they have any outstanding warrants. A mug shot is also taken. After processing, if male inmates do not bail out immediately they will most likely be transferred to the Inmate Reception Center; female inmates are transferred to the closest female jail facility where space is available. The process being bailed out of the Sheriff’s Station is the quickest option; it can take much longer to be bailed out of Los Angeles County Jail or the Inmate Reception Center.

How much does it cost to bail someone out of jail?
Once the inmate has been processed into jail their bail amount will be determined. In order to be bailed out of jail there are a few options.
- Put up the full amount of the bond with the court. This money must be certified funds. All of this money will be returned once the case has been resolved in court.
- Employ the services of a bail bondsman, who typically charge 10% of the total bond amount.
The service fee a bondsman charges is a non-refundable, one-time fee for posting the bond. This money is paid to the bail bonds company for the service of putting up the full bond amount with the court. In addition to paying the 10% to the bondsman, someone will also have to sign on behalf of the defendant as the Indemnitor, guaranteeing that they will make all of their court appearances and that they are financially responsible for that person in case they don’t go to jail.
