The debate about ending the U.S. cash bail system has been going on for years and will rage for the foreseeable future. If you’re a bondsman in Colorado, we are sure you follow what is happening with cash bail legislation in other states (New York, California, New Jersey), but we would like to take a step back for any potential new clients and review information that could be helpful if someone runs afoul of the law and needs our assistance.

If you’re in jail awaiting trial and wondering about bail, you’re not alone. Thousands of people across America are in the same situation, including hundreds in Colorado.
