Can you bail someone out after a DUI arrest?

If the defendant is being held, the court has authorized release and an eligible monetary bond has been set, Apex Bail Bonds can assist with the DUI surety bond.

How long does release take after a DUI bond is posted?

There is no single statewide release time. Processing depends on the detention facility, required paperwork, staffing and whether the defendant has additional holds or release requirements.

What information should I have when calling Apex?

The defendant's full legal name and date of birth are the best starting points. If available, also provide the arrest location, detention facility, booking number and bond amount. You can still call if some information is missing.

DOES SOMEONE ARRESTED FOR DUI NEED A BAIL BOND?

AFTER A DUI ARREST

Not every DUI arrest results in the same release process. Depending on the circumstances and the court's decision, someone may be released without having to post a monetary bond, released with conditions, or required to satisfy a bond before leaving custody.

If a monetary bond has been set and a surety bond is permitted, Apex can help complete the bail bond.

Arizona law gives the judicial officer responsibility for determining the method of release and the amount of bail in bailable cases.

DIFFERENT DUI CHARGES CAN AFFECT THE BAIL PROCESS

UNDERSTANDING THE BOOKING INFORMATION

If you're looking at a jail record after a DUI arrest, you may see different DUI charges listed. Arizona law distinguishes several types of DUI offenses, and the charges involved can affect which court handles the case and what happens during the release process.

DUI

Arizona's general DUI statute includes driving or being in actual physical control of a vehicle while impaired to the slightest degree by alcohol, drugs or a combination of substances. It also includes certain alcohol-concentration and drug-related provisions. A violation of §28-1381 is generally classified as a Class 1 misdemeanor.

EXTREME DUI

Arizona separately defines Extreme DUI based on specified alcohol concentrations. Violations of §28-1382 are also classified as Class 1 misdemeanors.

AGGRAVATED DUI

Certain circumstances can elevate a DUI to Aggravated DUI, including specified situations involving a suspended or revoked driving privilege, qualifying prior DUI offenses, ignition-interlock requirements, wrong-way driving, or a person under 15 in the vehicle. Depending on the applicable provision, Arizona classifies aggravated DUI as a Class 4 or Class 6 felony.

Apex Bail Bonds does not provide legal advice or determine what charges should have been filed. For questions about the DUI charge itself, possible defenses or the criminal case, speak with an attorney.

HAS A DUI BOND ALREADY BEEN SET?

If you know where the defendant is being held and the court has already set a monetary bond, call Apex with the defendant's name, jail location and bond amount. We'll explain what is needed to start the bail bond.

HOW A DUI BAIL BOND WORKS

FROM DUI ARREST TO RELEASE

The exact release process varies by the arrest, court and detention facility, but when a DUI defendant requires a monetary bond, the bail portion generally follows these steps.

DUI ARREST & BOOKING

The defendant is taken into custody and processed by the arresting agency or detention facility.

RELEASE CONDITIONS ARE DETERMINED

The appropriate court determines whether the defendant can be released and what conditions, including any monetary bond, apply. Arizona law places that determination with the judicial officer in bailable cases.

CALL APEX

Once bond information is available, call Apex with the defendant's name, location and bond amount.

COMPLETE THE DUI BAIL BOND

We'll explain the bail bond requirements, paperwork and costs so you know what is required before proceeding.

THE BOND IS POSTED

Apex posts the eligible surety bond with the appropriate detention facility.

RELEASE PROCESSING

After the bond is accepted, detention personnel complete their procedures before the defendant can leave custody.

THE FULL PROCESS WORKS

CALL US BEFORE ASSUMING WHAT YOU'LL NEED

WHEN A DUI BOND IS HIGHER THAN EXPECTED

The court—not Apex—determines whether monetary bail is required and the amount of that bail. Arizona law directs judicial officers to consider multiple factors when determining the method of release and amount of bail.

If the bond amount is higher than you expected, call us before making assumptions about the bail bond requirements. We'll review the available bond information and explain what Apex requires to move forward.
