Felony Bail Bonds in Hampton Roads
Felony bail in Virginia commonly runs from $5,000 to $100,000 or more, so the premium can be significant. We write high-amount felony bonds every month, offer payment plans and collateral options, and treat every family with total confidentiality.
How felony bail works in Virginia
For felony charges, a magistrate sets the initial bail — or holds the defendant for a bond hearing before a judge. Bail depends on the charge severity, criminal history, community ties, and flight risk. Some serious felonies start with no bond until an attorney argues for one at a hearing.
Affording a large bond
On a large bail the premium is real money for most families. We offer down-payment plans and can secure larger bonds with collateral such as vehicles or real estate. The consultation costs nothing, and we will lay out every option before you commit to anything.
If bond is denied at first
A “no bond” status is often not the end. Defense attorneys can request a bond hearing (or appeal to Circuit Court) where a judge may set an amount. We stay in contact with the family throughout, and the moment a bond is set, we are ready to post it.
