Bail bond software in California.

Bondskeeper is open in California. You can sign up today, free, and run your book on it. What you will not find on this page is a single California deadline, rate band or filing date, and that is on purpose.

What is switched off here

The premium box does no maths here. We will not price a bond against rules we have not read.
No court clocks. We do not count this state’s deadlines for you.
Nothing files itself with your state agency.
Court dates are typed in by hand, and marked unconfirmed until someone confirms them.

State law

Who regulates bail bonding here

California Department of Insurance

The Department of Insurance licenses bail agents, bail solicitors, bail permittees and bail fugitive recovery agents, and publishes a public licence lookup that shows enforcement actions.

That is who you deal with, not a summary of what they require. We have not read this state’s rules and we are not going to paraphrase them for you. Read the source and ask them.

We have not verified this state’s rules

Reading Virginia’s rules properly took months, and six of them still went to a lawyer with a question mark on them. We have not done that for California. So you will not find a California deadline, rate or filing date anywhere on this site, and the software will not calculate one. If you acted on a date we made up, you would miss a filing and lose a judgment, and that would be our doing. Everything on the left works because none of it depends on knowing California law.

How a state becomes Core

Demand picks the order. Tell us you are in California and it counts toward the next state we read end to end, and hold to the same standard Virginia is held to: real sources, a citation on every rule, and the clocks running.
