DUI Driving Under The Influence

DUI bail bonds can help a family member or friend meet bail requirements after an arrest for driving under the influence. Midwest Bonding assists families throughout Minnesota with conditional and unconditional DUI bail bonds, payment options, and guidance through the bonding process. With agents serving communities across the state and more than 20 years of experience, our team can help you understand the next steps after a DUI arrest.

If your friend or family member has been arrested for a DUI, you may be trying to figure out what happens next and how you can help. For many families, this is their first experience dealing with an arrest, bail, and the court system.

That’s where Midwest Bonding can help. Our agents can explain the DUI bail bond process, discuss available payment options, and help you determine what may be needed to post bond for your loved one.

Because bail requirements and release conditions can vary depending on the county, court, and circumstances of the case, our team can help you better understand the bonding process and what steps may be available.

How Do DUI Bail Bonds Work?

After a DUI arrest, the court may establish bail, release conditions, or other requirements that must be met before or after a defendant is released.

If your family member or friend is required to post bail, Midwest Bonding can help you understand the bond amount and the process for arranging a DUI bail bond.

Depending on the circumstances, DUI cases may involve:

  • Conditional bail
  • Unconditional bail
  • Release with court-ordered conditions
  • Changes to an existing bail arrangement
  • Additional court appearances or requirements

Every case is different, so the available options will depend on the court and the individual circumstances surrounding the arrest.

Conditional And Unconditional DUI Bail

Families often have questions about the difference between conditional and unconditional bail.

Conditional bail may allow a defendant to post a lower bail amount while agreeing to certain conditions established by the court. Unconditional bail may involve a different bail amount without the same release conditions.

In some situations, a person who was initially released with conditions may later choose to explore whether posting unconditional bail is an option.

If your friend or family member is considering a change to their bail arrangement, Midwest Bonding can help explain the bonding process and make arrangements when an appropriate bond can be posted.

Because release conditions are established by the court, your loved one should continue following all existing requirements unless the court authorizes a change.

Helping A Loved One After A DUI Arrest

When someone you care about is arrested, it can be difficult to know where to begin. In addition to arranging bail, you may want to speak with an attorney who has experience handling DUI cases.

An attorney can provide legal advice regarding the charges, court proceedings, release conditions, and the defendant’s legal options.

Midwest Bonding has served Minnesota for more than 20 years and has developed relationships with attorneys throughout the state. If your family member or friend needs an attorney and you are unsure where to start, contact our office and ask about an attorney referral.

Contact Midwest Bonding For DUI Bail Bonds

A DUI case may involve several stages of the court process, and understanding your loved one’s bail options can help you determine what steps to take next.

If a friend or family member has been arrested for a DUI, contact Midwest Bonding to discuss the bail bond process. With more than 20 years of experience and agents serving communities throughout Minnesota, our team can answer your questions and help you understand the available bonding options.

There will be many questions that you want answers to. Here are a few.

  • WHERE IS MY VEHICLE?
  • WHAT HAPPENS TO MY VEHICLE?
  • WILL I BE RELEASED OR DO I HAVE A POST BOND?
  • CAN I POST BOND OR DO I HAVE TO WAIT FOR MY ARRAIGNMENT?
  • HOW MUCH TROUBLE AM I IN, AND WHAT ARE THE POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES?

An agent from Midwest Bonding would be able to help you through the process of posting bail, finding out when and where the arraignment will be, and what is required to post bond, but the other questions should only be answered by experienced attorney.

Examples of a few of several scenarios that may happen when an individual is arrested for a dui.

  • One scenario is that a defendant could be arrested, booked into jail, and released the same day. This situation usually occurs when it’s an individual’s first offense and they are just over the legal limit to drive.
  • Another scenario is that an individual is arrested, and there is a judge on call that can issue a bail to be posted prior to the arraignment. The availability of this option often depends on what county an individual is arrested in.
  • Yet another option is that a person is arrested, and is required to wait until their arraignment. This could mean that if an individual is arrested on a Friday night they might not see the judge until Monday.
  • Also, if an individual is arrested on a Saturday or Sunday they may not see the judge until the following Tuesday.
