If you or a loved one has been arrested in Ellis County, here’s how the bail process works:
Step 1: Arrest & Booking
The defendant is taken to the Ellis County Jail in Waxahachie, where fingerprints, photos, and charges are recorded.
Step 2: Bail is Set
A judge sets the bail amount based on the charges and risk factors.
Step 3: Contact a Bail Bondsman
Instead of paying the full bail, you pay a percentage (usually 10%) to a licensed bondsman.
Step 4: Release from Jail
Our agents file the paperwork and secure release, usually within a few hours.
Step 5: Court Appearances
The defendant must attend all court dates as required.
