Our transfer bail bonds service helps an Ohio resident who has been arrested in another state. We can complete the paperwork locally with the co-signer, then have our insurance company find an agent in the other state to post the bond.
For example, if someone who lives in Dayton is arrested in Florida, the co-signer can complete the paperwork locally with Craven. Our insurance company then finds an agent in Florida to actually post the bond. Contact us with the defendant’s Ohio residence, arrest location, and available bond information to discuss the situation.

About Transfer Bail Bonds
A transfer bond lets Craven help arrange a bond in another state when the defendant lives in Ohio. The co-signer completes the paperwork locally with us. Our insurance company finds an agent in the state where the defendant was arrested, and that agent handles the actual posting of the bond.
To begin discussing the bail process, have the defendant’s name, Ohio residence, detention facility, charges, and bail amount when available. We can explain the paperwork needed for the local co-signer and coordinate the information for our insurance company.
The bond is posted by the agent in the other state. The detention facility manages its own release procedures and processing timeline. Contact us to discuss the particular arrest location and bond before making arrangements.
