The process — three steps

From phone call
to walking out.

Most clients move from "we just got the call" to "they're home" inside one shift. The whole timeline below is what happens between the call and the release — and most of it is jail processing, not paperwork on our end.

  1. 01 Step 1 of 3

    Call us

    Tell us the defendant's full name and the jail or county. We pull the booking record while you're still on the line.

    Average pickup: under 10 seconds. Live agent — never an answering service.

  2. 02 Step 2 of 3

    We write the bond

    You pay the 15% premium (cash, card, wire, or financing). We sign as surety and post the full bail amount with the jail.

    Most paperwork is finished in under twenty minutes — in person or e-signed.

  3. 03 Step 3 of 3

    They walk out

    The jail confirms the bond, processes the release, and your loved one is on their way home. We text you the moment they're released.

    Total time from call to release: typically 2 to 4 hours.

That's the whole engagement. No retainer. No subscription. No surprise fees.

Statewide coverage — every Colorado county

Why Express

The four things
that don't change.

Most bondsmen advertise speed. We do too. But the four things below are the ones we'll never compromise — even at 3 a.m. on a holiday.

01 Promise

Licensed surety, not a marketing site

We are a licensed Colorado surety company — every bond is written by an in-house agent, never sub-contracted to a stranger.

02 Promise

One office, one number, since 1988

Same Denver office, same family operation. The number you call today is the number a client called in 1991.

03 Promise

Confidential by default

We never list client names, never disclose case details, and never share your information beyond what the court requires.

04 Promise

Court-day discipline

We text reminders before every court date and call you the morning of. Missed court dates are the leading cause of forfeiture — we work hard to make sure that doesn't happen to you.

Questions before the call

Things people ask
in the first sixty seconds.

Bail bonds are simpler than they look. The 12 answers below cover almost every question we hear — but if yours isn't here, calling is free, and we don't charge for advice.

How much does a bail bond cost in Colorado?

By state law, the premium for a surety bond is 15% of the bail amount. On a $5,000 bond, that's $750. The premium is the bondsman's fee — it is fully earned the moment we post the bond and is not refundable, even if the case is dismissed. We do not add hidden fees on top of the 15%.

How long does it take to get someone out of jail?

From the moment you call us, the typical timeline is two to four hours in metro counties and four to eight hours in outlying counties. Most of that is jail processing, not paperwork on our end. We start the bond before you arrive, so the moment your portion is signed, we can be at the window posting it.

What information do I need before I call?

Just the defendant's full legal name, date of birth if you have it, and the city or county where they were arrested. If you don't have all of it — call anyway. We can pull the booking record from the jail system in seconds.

Do you offer payment plans on the 15%?

Yes, on most bonds. We tailor financing to the situation — a down payment, then weekly or bi-weekly installments. Anyone with steady income, a verifiable address, and willingness to sign as a co-signer typically qualifies. We discuss this on the phone before any paperwork.

What forms of payment do you accept?

Cash, all major credit and debit cards, wire transfer, certified check, and Zelle. We do not require cash — credit cards are equally welcome and incur no surcharge.

What happens if the defendant misses a court date?

The court issues a bench warrant and the bond is set for forfeiture. You then have a statutory window to surrender the defendant or rebook them. We aggressively work that window — court reminders, address verification, family outreach — to keep forfeiture from happening. In 37 years of operation, our forfeiture rate is well under 1%.

Are bail bonds confidential?

Yes. We never publish client names, never confirm a bond was written for a specific person to anyone outside the court system, and only release case information when legally required (e.g., a subpoena). The fact that you called us is not public.

Can I bond someone out without ever leaving home?

Often, yes. We e-sign paperwork, take payment over the phone, and post the bond with the jail directly. You'll receive a copy of the indemnitor agreement, the court reminder schedule, and a release notification by text — all without leaving your home.

What is a co-signer (indemnitor) responsible for?

The co-signer guarantees the defendant will appear at every court date. If the defendant fails to appear and we cannot recover them within the statutory window, the co-signer is liable for the full bail amount — not the 15%, but the full face value of the bond. We are extremely transparent about this before anyone signs.

Do you serve every county in Colorado?

Yes. We're a Colorado-licensed surety in all 64 counties. In counties more than two hours from Denver, we use a vetted local correspondent agent — but you call the same number, pay the same 15%, and the bond is written on our paper.

What's the difference between a personal recognizance (PR) bond and a surety bond?

A PR bond is a written promise to appear, with no money posted. A surety bond requires posting bail through a bondsman like us. Judges set the type at first appearance. If a PR is granted, you do not need us — and we'll tell you that on the phone, for free, before you've signed anything.

Are you really open 24/7?

Yes — twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year, including Christmas morning, Thanksgiving night, and 3 a.m. on a Tuesday. A licensed agent answers every call. There is no answering service, no chatbot, and no callback queue.
