Services

General Bail Bonds: Blandon Bail Bonds writes bail bonds for defendants in state and local cases throughout Florida and in cases across the United States. A bail bond is a financial guarantee posted by a licensed bail bond agent on behalf of a defendant, assuring the court that the defendant will appear for scheduled proceedings. In exchange, the defendant or their family pays a non-refundable premium, typically a percentage of the total bail amount set by the court.

Immigration Bail Bonds: Immigration detainees held by the Department of Homeland Security may be eligible for release on immigration bond. These bonds are distinct from criminal bail bonds in their structure and the agencies involved. Blandon Bail Bonds handles immigration bonds for individuals detained in immigration custody, helping families secure the release of loved ones from immigration detention facilities.

Domestic Violence Bonds: When a defendant is arrested on domestic violence charges, specific conditions typically apply to the bail process, including mandatory waiting periods before release in some jurisdictions and protective order considerations. The company assists families in navigating the bail process in these cases.

DUI and Drunk Driving Bonds: Defendants arrested on DUI and drunk driving charges are processed through the same bail system as other criminal defendants. Blandon Bail Bonds assists families in securing the release of individuals arrested on these charges.

Bond Process Guidance: The bail and bond process is unfamiliar to most families until they are in the middle of it. Blandon Bail Bonds provides free and confidential guidance on how the process works, walking clients through each step from the moment of contact. The company assists clients by phone for those who cannot come to the office in person, an important accommodation given that families of detained individuals are often managing multiple urgent demands simultaneously.

Personnel and Credentials

Blandon Bail Bonds is a family-owned and family-operated business. All agents are licensed bail bond agents in the State of Florida. The company has been in operation for more than 10 years. Specific individual agent names and credentials are not publicly documented.

Staff is bilingual in English and Spanish, which directly serves Miami-Dade County’s substantial Spanish-speaking population. Bail and bond processes involve significant documentation and communication with both courts and detention facilities, and the ability to conduct that guidance in Spanish eliminates a significant barrier for families who prefer to communicate in that language.

Location and Availability

The company is located in Miami, FL 33122, one block from Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center. It is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week by phone at 305-597-4595. Clients who cannot come to the office can receive assistance by phone or email. Flexible payment plans are available. The website is www.blandonbailbonds.com/.

Client Focus

The company serves individuals and families in Miami-Dade County who need bail bonds for detained loved ones. It also serves individuals with immigration detention bonds and clients throughout Florida and nationwide, as the company writes bonds on a statewide and national basis. The bilingual English-Spanish operation is particularly relevant for Miami-Dade County, where a large proportion of residents speak Spanish as a primary language.

The 24/7 availability is an important practical feature: arrests do not occur only during business hours, and families who are trying to secure the release of a detained person often need to act quickly. The company’s round-the-clock service and its physical proximity to the county’s main detention facility are both directly responsive to the urgent, time-sensitive circumstances that characterize this type of need.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between bail and a bail bond?

Bail is the amount of money set by the court that a defendant must pay to secure release from custody while awaiting trial. If the defendant has sufficient cash, bail can be paid directly to the court. A bail bond is an alternative when the defendant and their family cannot pay the full bail amount. A licensed bail bond agent posts the full amount of bail on the defendant’s behalf in exchange for a non-refundable premium, typically 10% of the bail amount in Florida. If the defendant fails to appear for court as required, the bond agent is liable to the court for the full bail amount.

What is an immigration bond and how does it differ from a criminal bail bond?

An immigration bond is posted with the Department of Homeland Security or with an immigration court to secure the release of a person held in immigration detention. Immigration bonds operate under federal law and regulations that differ from state criminal bail bond systems. Blandon Bail Bonds handles both types, though the processes, agencies, and conditions involved are distinct.

What happens if someone cannot pay the full bail amount?

Most defendants and their families cannot pay the full bail amount, which is why bail bond services exist. When a family contacts Blandon Bail Bonds, the company explains the costs and process, including the premium required and payment options. Flexible payment plans are available for families who need to spread payments over time.

Is the company available in the middle of the night or on weekends?

Yes. The company operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Arrests and detention situations arise at all hours, and the company’s round-the-clock availability reflects that reality.

Does the company handle bonds for cases outside Miami-Dade County?

Yes. Blandon Bail Bonds writes bonds throughout Florida and on a nationwide basis, not only in Miami-Dade County.
