The defendant’s bail is set after an arrest in Colorado for DUI/DWI. In most situations, the defendant won’t have to see a judge before their bail is set. This is because DUI is on the bail schedule. There are some exceptions, however. For example, when the defendant will need to appear before a judge before bail is set. Regardless, if you or a loved one is facing an arrest for DUI/DWI, contact one of our experienced agents immediately. We’ll work to file paperwork and get everything in order so you can get out of jail as quickly as possible.
Typically, bail for drunk driving starts at $1,000 in Colorado. The bail amount will rise, depending on a variety of factors. This includes the defendant’s criminal record, flight risk, and general attitude. Additionally, if the defendant was driving with a suspended license due to a prior DUI, then the bond is statutorily set at $10,000.
When you work with a bail agent as opposed to the other three options, all you have to do is fill out paperwork and pay the agent’s fee. We do the rest. Additionally, you’ll have an advocate working on your behalf in the court, fighting for a fast release. The criminal justice system is confusing. It is invaluable to work with a bail agent with experience in the specific jail in the county of your arrest.
There are a few different ways you can post bail for DUI. First, you can pay the court outright. For this option, you must pay in full, and it must be cash. Secondly, you may be able to take advantage of a Personal Recognizance Bond (PR Bond). This occurs when the defendant meets specific criteria that convince the judge they are trustworthy and will return for all court dates. Thirdly, you may be able to obtain a Property Bond, which puts a lien on a piece of property (real estate, a vehicle, etc.), allowing for your release. Fourthly, you can work with a DUI bondsman who will post a bond on your behalf for a small fee.
Bail is a right granted by the Eighth Amendment. It serves as a guarantee the defendant will return to stand trial, while also allowing them to be free and treating them as innocent until proven guilty.

Working with an experienced bondsman will ensure you or your family member or friend gets out of jail as quickly as possible.
