Many people wonder how bail bonds work. While the process can vary due to changing policies at Oahu Community Correctional Center, we can give you a general overview of how the process works on our end. It all begins when someone is arrested or learns they have an outstanding arrest warrant. As soon as this happens, you can contact Hawaii Bail Bonds for immediate assistance. A bail bondsman will walk you through the process, answering any questions you may have about bail. After speaking with our agent, you’ll clearly understand the plan our team has put in place to secure a fast and affordable bail bond. Our team member will then send you an online bail bond document to sign electronically or arrange a time to meet at our office or the jail. Once the paperwork is complete, the bail agent will post bail. After that, it’s up to the jail to process the release. In some cases, especially in the Capital city, it can take several hours to release an inmate due to factors such as incoming bookings and updates to court dockets.
