San Luis Obispo county has several locations to post bail, including there main jail in the city of San Luis Obispo.  Keep in mind that when someone is arrested, they can be held at the local city jail for hours before being transported to the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff Main Jail.

When someone is arrested, here are some things to help us help you get a bail bond posted quick.

1. What police department arrested your family or friend?

2. What is the full name and date of birth of them?

3. About what time did they get arrested?

There is certain information that a bail bond company will need in order to assist, but not all is required:

Learning how to navigate the process when someone gets arrested in Santa Maria, or by the Santa Maria Police department can be stressful.  Anyone arrested in Santa Maria by the Police Department will be taken to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff department jail on Foster.  The Foster facility is very quick to book someone, and release within 2 hours or less.  Of course this depends on staffing and arrest to handle.  If someone is booked at the Foster facility, they are more likely going to be transported to the Main Jail in Santa Barbara after some time.

Its late at night, and you get a call from a family member who has been arrested by the Lompoc Police Department, what next?  Will you can call the police department yourself to find out information, but more likely you will not get as much information as a bail bondsman would.

Keep in mind that the Lompoc police department operates a small jail, and many times they are understaffed.  In being understaffed, they will not have much time to answer your questions.  Let us help you get the information you like to know so if posting bail is an option.

I receive calls daily and in doing so I have listed the top 3 common questions asked.

1. I have a family or friend arrested, but I do not know what is going on or how much his bail is. Can you help me find out?

When a family or friend has been arrested, they are usually taken to the local police station or county jail for booking.  This process can take anywhere from 2 to 6 hours, and during this time we will not be able to obtain bail information until booking has been complete.  Because of this timely process, we will monitor his booking process and after they are booked, we will contact the customer with the charges, first court date and bail information if they wish to bail out the detainee.

If you live or work in the city of Fillmore, California you might find yourself, friend or family in need of a bail bondsman.  The city of Fillmore has its own police station operated by the Ventura County Sheriff department.  If a family or friend is arrested in Fillmore, they will be taken to the main jail in Ventura for booking.  The Fillmore police department does not have staff nor room for booking and releasing people from there.
