31 Jan Is Bail Tax Deductible?
We’ve been asked before if bail is tax-deductible, but the answer is no. Even though bail money is given to the government just like tax money is, it is actually not like a tax at all. Bail money is paid to guarantee the defendant will return to court when ordered.
So, because bail is not tax-deductible, the amount to pay will not be lowered than what was ordered by the court. However, if you cannot meet the bail amount, you can contact Free U Bail Bonds Demopolis to speak with an agent and develop a payment plan that is in your financial situation. Instead of paying the full bail amount, you will only need to pay the premium (3.5% of the full bail amount) and have collateral ready. Just make sure the person you are bailing out, is compliant with all court-mandated appearances. When the trial is closed, you will get your collateral back. There are no hidden fees when working with Free U Bail Bonds Demopolis.
