Georgia Bail and Bond Hearing Lawyers

Bond

When you or a loved one is arrested, it can be a confusing situation.  Understanding the legal system and what needs to be done can be difficult.  At The Law Office of Douglas B. Chanco,LLC we handle all types of Georgia bail and bond hearings. At times we are able to negotiate a bond amount with the prosecutor assigned to the case. Other times, a formal court hearing may be required to obtain a bond for our client. Either way, attorney Douglas B. Chanco is highly skilled at obtaining bonds for clients, so that they can be released from jail.

In determining what the cost of a bond will be or whether an individual will even qualify for bond, the Court will review several factors. These include:

• Whether the person poses a flight risk.
• Whether the person poses a threat to the community.
• Whether the person will commit other crimes while released from jail on bond.
• Whether the person will intimidate witnesses while out on bond.

While most charges are bondable under Georgia law without seeing a Superior Court judge, several are not. These offenses that require seeing a Superior Court judge include: rape, aggravated child molestation, armed robbery, aggravated sexual battery, certain drug offenses, treason, hijacking, murder, among others.
