Arrest & magistrate hearing
After an arrest in North Carolina, the accused is brought before a magistrate — typically within a few hours. The magistrate reads the charges and sets bond. For DWIs, a mandatory observation hold of up to 24 hours may apply before bond can be posted.

A licensed NC bondsperson answers — never an answering service. We gather the inmate's full legal name, date of birth, and the jail where they are held. Total intake time: about 2 minutes.
Co-signer & paperwork
Most bonds require a co-signer 21 or older with valid ID, proof of address, and proof of income. We use e-signature where possible to keep things fast. Payment is collected at this stage.
We post the bond
Our Raleigh-based office secures underwriting approval in seconds and dispatches a licensed agent directly to the county jail to post the bond.
Release & after-care
Once posted, the jail begins the release process. Average release time: 2–6 hours depending on facility volume. After release, we provide written reminders for every court date until the case concludes.
