Arrested in Texas? Start from anywhere.
You do not have to be in Texas to begin. Tell us the Texas county or jail where the person is in custody, then start a secure remote inquiry by phone, text or form.
The arrest county and your home state are different fields for a reason.
A family in Minnesota can be dealing with a jail in Texas. Enter the state, county, city, ZIP or facility where the arrest happened. The office will review the request and follow up directly; local procedures are confirmed for that jurisdiction, not for your home state.
- Calling or texting the office and providing the booking details.
- A secure online inquiry with the person’s name and the arrest location.
- Electronic signature when the receiving jail accepts it.
- Payment of the premium through the office’s approved crypto invoice.
A jail may require an original document, a wet signature, a co-signer, a collateral receipt, or an in-person appearance by the defendant or indemnitor. The office will tell you before you pay. Travel is not required to begin; it can be required to finish a particular case.
