Phoenix Police Arrests Questions
How do I bail someone out of Phoenix Police Arrests?
Call us with the person's name and date of birth. We confirm custody and the bail amount, you sign electronically and pay the premium, and our agent posts the bond. You do not need to come to Phoenix.
How long does release from Phoenix Police Arrests take?
City facilities release quickly once a bond is accepted, often within an hour or two. If the person has been transferred to the 4th Avenue Jail, county timing applies.
Can I visit someone at Phoenix Police Arrests?
Visitation rules are set by the facility and change often. Check the official website or call the facility before going. Getting the person released on bond is usually faster than arranging a visit.
Where do you post bail in Phoenix?
Bonds for anyone in Maricopa County custody are posted in person at the 4th Avenue Jail Bond and Fine Room, 201 S 4th Avenue, Phoenix, at the northwest corner of the building. The county does not accept bonds electronically. Our agent handles the posting so you do not have to.
How long after posting bail is someone released from Maricopa County jail?
The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office states that release processing can take up to 24 hours after a bond is posted. In practice, release from the 4th Avenue Jail often takes two to eight hours, and releases from the Durango complex jails (Lower Buckeye, Estrella, Towers, Watkins) can take longer because the release order must reach that facility. Weekend nights and holidays are slowest.
