Is it a better investment to hire Sumpter & Gonzalez over a bail bondsman?
Yes. By hiring Sumpter & Gonzálezat the outset of a case, rather than using a bail bondsman, you invest your money in the process of resolving the charges. Bail bondsmen make nearly all of their money in the few hours it takes to get someone out of jail by charging you 10% to 20% of the bond amount. For example, if you spend $4,000 on a bail bondsman, you pay $1,000 to $2,000 for each hour they work. When you hire a bail bondsman, you do not receive any legal advice, you do receive any help figuring out the next steps in fighting the charges against you, and you have to navigate the most anxious time of the process by yourself.
