Writ Bond

Writ Bond: Faster Release From Custody

After an arrest on a criminal charge in the Plano area, one of the first steps in the process is an appearance before a judge to set bail. Awaiting this appearance can take time, based upon the caseload, day of the week, time of day, and staffing – time that you cannot spare. You do not want to spend hours or days sitting in a holding cell that is overcrowded and overfilled with a number of people who are accused of a variety of criminal offenses. When stuck in custody awaiting a court appearance, you can get help on being released through the filing of what is called a “writ bond.” 

This writ bond can allow you to bypass the period of waiting for your scheduled appearance in front of the judge and be released – allowing you to return home.

A writ bond is a specific type of bail bond in which a set fee schedule is used as the bond amount, based upon the crime for which you were arrested. At the Zen Law Firm, we can assist those who are trapped in custody awaiting their appearance before the judge magistrate. The writ bond allows the person charged to bypass the waiting period and get released quickly. We know the importance of being released from custody; we can act fast on your behalf. If your loved one is in jail awaiting an appearance, contact our firm at once for assistance in getting them released to you.

Once it is established that you are eligible for a writ bond, we will contact you in person where you are incarcerated to get the paperwork completed. The next step is to file the writ bond with the county jail, which legally forces the bail amount to be set on an immediate basis. Once this is completed, the facility where you are being held will be informed that you are to be released and you can return to your home and family.

  • "Affordable & Dependable"
    Jason was very kind, very thorough and not judgemental. I was scared on the first day of court and he reassured me and got me an amazing deal that day so we wouldn't have to go back to court.

  • "In Good Hands"
    Jason and I spoke on the phone as long as I needed to know that I was in good hands. Over the next two months, between a couple phone calls and some texts, and following Jason's advice, my case was dismissed.

  • "Proactive Communication"
    His responsiveness and attention to detail made all the difference in my case, and I can only imagine how hard he would fight for clients in more critical situations.

  • "Surpassed My Expectations"
    Jason has surpassed my expectations and got it dismissed without me even having to attend a court date. We had other questions on other matters and gave us great advice on those also.
