How Do I Get Bail?
In Hawaii, there are jail schedules for a majority of misdemeanor crimes.

How Does Bail Work in Hawaii?
After getting arrested and being booked at the local county jail, a bail amount will be set. While there is typically a pre-set amount for minor misdemeanor offenses, the bail amount for more serious crimes will be based on the person’s flight risk, danger to others, and other relevant factors.
There are two main ways to post bail: pay the entire bail amount in full or use a bail bondsman to post bail for you at a fee. If you cannot make bail, then you must remain in jail until your next court hearing.
Even when sitting in jail, it is important to remember that as far as the court is concerned you are presumed innocent. Prior to any conviction, a court within the relevant jurisdiction can grant an order of bail for the accused. In this case, our experienced bail agents can stand in surety before the court for your friend or loved one to secure their release.
In this financial arrangement, the Hawaii bail bond company and co-signers attached to the bond agrees to pay the court in the event that the accused does not meet their court date. Through our bail bond service, we aim to help our clients spend as little time behind bars as possible.
How Much Will Bail Cost?
Hawaii law sets the bond premium for bail bond agents at 10 percent. For example, if the bail is set at $50,000, the defendant pays $5,000. In some cases, bail bond agents will set up a payment plan to help defendants post bail. A cash bail will cost the entire bail amount and does not involve a bail bond agent.
