Temecula
Bail Bonds

No — not as an independent municipal agency. Temecula is fully contracted with the Riverside County Sheriff's Office and policed from the Southwest Station at 30755-A Auld Rd in Murrieta, (951) 696-3000. That makes Temecula different from Murrieta, Hemet, and Menifee, which each run their own departments.

Almost certainly the Cois M. Byrd Detention Center — also called the Southwest Detention Center — at 30755-B Auld Rd in Murrieta, on the same campus as the station. It is the Sheriff's southwest-county jail. Transfers north to Robert Presley in Riverside happen but are unusual. Call us with a name and date of birth and we'll confirm the facility before anyone drives.

No. The premium is 10% of the bail amount, filed with the California Department of Insurance under Cal. Ins. Code §1800, and it is the same whether the arresting agency is a city police department or a contracted Sheriff's station. The contract changes the address and the timeline, not the price.

No — we don't have a Temecula location, and we won't pretend otherwise. We serve Temecula from our staffed office at 3959 Market St Ste C, Riverside, CA 92501. Our agents post at the Temecula city jail and at the county detention centers where arrestees are transferred, so coverage is full either way.

No. Bail is set from the Riverside County Superior Court felony and misdemeanor bail schedule, which applies county-wide. A DUI booked in Temecula starts from the same schedule figure as one booked anywhere else in Riverside County. What changes city to city is the facility and the timeline, not the number.

Usually not. Most bonds under $100,000 are written on a qualified cosigner's signature alone. Above that threshold, collateral may be requested depending on the charge, the bail amount, and how the cosigner qualifies.

Yes. A licensed agent answers (951) 692-7388 every hour of every day, weekends and holidays included, and we post overnight at both the city facility and the county facilities.

The judge can forfeit the bond and issue a bench warrant. There's a statutory window to bring the defendant back before the forfeiture becomes a judgment against the cosigner — call us the same day it happens, because that window is the difference between a fixable problem and a financial one.

The premium is 10% of the bail. The down payment is what varies — qualified clients start as low as 1% down on approved credit, with the balance on a written payment plan. On a $50,000 bail that's a $5,000 premium and a $500 down payment at the 1% tier.
