24/7 Bail Help from Local Experts Who Understand Costa Mesa Jails
If someone you care about has been arrested in Costa Mesa, California, time is critical. Understanding how the bail process works can help you get them out of custody as quickly and smoothly as possible. At Bail Bonds Direct, we specialize in fast, affordable bail bond services in Costa Mesa and throughout Orange County.
Professional, honest & confidential
One of the unique features of the custody system is the relationship between the Costa Mesa Police Station Jail and the Orange County jail system. If you’re arrested here, you will be transferred within a few hours to the Orange County Jail in Santa Ana and processed through their system. This can mean several additional hours in custody – from Costa Mesa to the Orange County Intake/Release Center to the Orange County Men’s or Women’s facilities if you are trying to bail a loved one out.
Arrestees are often transferred to the Orange County Main Jail, but we are able to contact the Costa Mesa Jailer with our intent to post bond and in most cases prevent a transfer. We can still get your loved one out of jail if they are transferred to OC Main, but the sooner we are able to act, the faster the process is likely to go. We have agents close to the county jail as well, which is ready to help day & night.
If you are in trouble, if you need bail bonds in Costa Mesa, CA just reach out to us and we’ll walk you through step by step. Get in touch with us at 714-602-1120 or click here.
