Weapons Charges Bail Bonds in Phoenix: What You Need to Know
Arizona's gun laws are permissive, but the misconduct involving weapons statute, A.R.S. 13-3102, still produces many felony arrests: a prohibited possessor with a firearm, a weapon in a drug offense, a firearm discharged in city limits, or a weapon carried into a prohibited place. Charges that involve a weapon also tend to raise bail on the underlying offense.
Prohibited possessor cases in particular can carry bail in the tens of thousands, and release conditions almost always prohibit possessing any firearm while the case is pending. We write these bonds, explain the conditions, and make sure the cosigner understands that a violation can revoke the bond.

What a Bail Bond Costs in Arizona
Arizona bail bond premiums are set by the surety company's rate filing with the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions. The standard rate is 10% of the bail amount, so a $5,000 bail costs about $500 and a $20,000 bail costs about $2,000. The premium is our fee for posting the full bail and is not refunded when the case ends. Arizona law does not allow a bail agent to charge interest on the premium, and we never add night, weekend or holiday surcharges.
On very small bonds, surety schedules set a minimum premium. If paying the full cash bond yourself would cost you less, we will say so. For larger bonds we may ask for collateral or a qualified cosigner, and every requirement is disclosed in writing before you commit. Use our bail bond calculator to estimate the premium, or read about payment plans and collateral.

Weapons Charges Bail Bonds Questions
Is being a prohibited possessor a felony in Arizona?
Yes. Possession of a firearm by a prohibited possessor (for example, a convicted felon whose rights have not been restored) is a class 4 felony under A.R.S. 13-3102, and bail is set accordingly.
Can the person keep firearms at home while on bond?
Almost never. Courts routinely order no possession of firearms as a release condition on weapons cases and many assault and domestic violence cases. Violating the condition risks re-arrest and bond revocation.
Does a weapon make bail higher on a drug or assault charge?
Typically yes. A weapon allegation adds a dangerousness factor that judges weigh under A.R.S. 13-3967 when setting release conditions.
