Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bail bond agents are specifically licensed professionals who post bail on behalf of a defendant in exchange for a fee (usually 10% of the total bail amount). They assume financial responsibility for ensuring the defendant appears in court for their scheduled appearances, and may employ the services of bounty hunters to track down and apprehend any defendants who skip bail.
