Posting Adams County Bail | Types of Bonds | Fees
In addition to the bond or bail, there is a $10 bond fee and $40 book fee (yes, you have to pay to get arrested). The following types of bonds can be posted at the Adams County Jail:
Property Bond
If you have enough equity in property, you can use this equity as a bond.
Cash Bond
You will get this money back at the end of the case if the inmate obeys the bond conditions.
Surety Bond
This is like renting money for a fee – you will pay interest.
Personal Recognizance
Can only be done with the approval of the court.
Early involvement of a lawyer in criminal cases is crucial.
Work Release Program:
The Adams County Jail offers work release sentences if approved by the court. However, you must complete your application prior to sentencing to be considered for the program. Otherwise, you will have to wait in jail for everything to be verified. Proof of employment is necessary, and there are up front and weekly costs involved.
Visits from Friends, Family Members, and Legal Personnel
Visitation is subject to change. Please visit the Adams County Jail visitation page to ensure updated information. Inmates can receive visitors either in person or through the internet using a program (www.iwebvisit.com ) which costs $12 per visit. You must register ahead of time for online and in-person visits. All conversations are recorded and can be used against you in court. Do not discuss your case at all. Your Sawyer Legal Group attorneys are allowed to visit inmates at the jail 24/7 if you wish to have someone speak with your friend or loved one.
Why a Jail Visit by an Attorney is Important
If you have a friend or a loved one in the Adams County Jail, it's in their best interest to have an attorney visit them. This is because police detectives and investigators are quick to interview and interrogate them before a lawyer is able to advise them to exercise their right to remain silent. Unbeknownst to the inmate, there is a race to talk to them first. Because of the importance of remaining silent, it is wise to quickly contact an attorney to visit them in jail. One of our skilled lawyers will advise them of their rights and give them hope as we prepare their defense.
We will advise your loved one to exercise their right to remain silent.
