We Offer Bail Bonds for Felony Charges
Our services help secure the release of individuals charged with serious crimes by providing a financial guarantee that the defendant will return for all court appearances.
A felony charge means the alleged offense is considered more serious under state or federal law. These include drug trafficking, burglary, aggravated assault, and robbery. Felonies carry longer detention times and higher bail amounts compared to misdemeanors.
Apex provides services in North Carolina and Virginia, including Reidsville, Graham, Greensboro, Martinsville, and surrounding areas. Our team handles standard and high-value bonds and has 24/7 access to local jails and courts.
We specialize in fast processing for large bonds and offer payment plans when upfront amounts are difficult. Before approval, every case is reviewed for risk, collateral, and co-signer options.
Once the amount is posted, the court accepts it as a promise that the defendant will attend all hearings. This requires strong legal knowledge, accurate paperwork, and coordination. Our agents work directly with families, attorneys, and the staff to ensure timely release and clear communication throughout the process.

Our Felony Bail Bond Process
When someone is arrested on felony charges, they are taken into custody and held until a judge reviews the case.
These charges involve serious offenses, so release decisions depend on state laws, policies, and the arrest facts. Judges decide if the defendant can return home before trial and what financial amount is required to make that happen.
We help families manage this process quickly and legally. Below is how our service works, from the first call to full release.
Step 1: Contact Apex Bail Bonds right away.
A family member or friend calls us to get help for the defendant. We ask for basic details like the name, location of the arrest, and charges. We are available 24/7.
Step 2: We confirm the details and set conditions.
We check the records to determine the exact amount, any conditions the judge sets, and when the next hearing will occur. We explain everything in plain language.
Step 3: We go over payment options and complete paperwork.
We explain the total cost, required documents, and any co-signer or collateral needs. When full payment isn’t possible, we offer flexible payment plans.
Step 4: We post the amount and work with the jail.
Once everything is ready, we submit the amount and paperwork directly. The release process begins immediately after that.
Step 5: The defendant is released from custody.
The jail processes the paperwork and releases the defendant. This step usually takes a few hours, depending on the jail’s schedule and procedures.
Step 6: The defendant follows the set rules after release.
The person must attend all court dates and follow any legal instructions from the judge. This can include travel limits or check-ins.
Step 7: We stay in contact until the case ends.
We support the family with reminders and updates, help them understand the legal process, and aim to ensure everything goes smoothly until the case is closed.

Qualifying for Felony Bail Bonds
Obtaining a felony bond depends on several factors, which the courts use to determine the risk of flight and danger to the public.
- Criminal Background: Previous charges on your record could make securing bail more difficult.
- Age: The court system can often be more lenient on younger individuals, particularly those with no previous record.
- Residency: If you maintain a permanent residence, you are more likely to be granted bail. Your bail may also be lowered if you have maintained residency for a longer time.
- Employment: Continuous employment shows that you are less of a flight risk.
- Nature of the offense: The less severe your charges, the more likely it is that you will be granted bail.
- Family: The court may consider strong familial ties as an indicator that you are less of a flight risk.
The Bond Amount for Felony Charges
After the court determines if you are eligible for felony bonds, it will determine the required amount for release. The bail amount for felonies is always higher than bail for misdemeanor charges. In some cases, repeated misdemeanor offenses can be elevated to felony charges by the court, making repeat offenders likely to pay more for bail.
If the individual cannot come up with the full sum, looking for bail bonds services in VA or NC should be the next option. Virginia and North Carolina agents charge between 10% and 15% of the total amount, which is sometimes called the “face amount.” For example, on a $2,500 bond, a bondsman will usually charge a 10% fee or $250.
We are trusted throughout North Carolina and Virginia. Let us help you get your loved one home, no matter the size of your bond.

Can You Bond Out on a Felony Charge?
A felony charge does not automatically mean that bail is out of the question. For misdemeanor or felony charges, the magistrate will consider several factors to determine the flight risk and risk of danger to the public that an individual presents when setting the final bail amount.
Once bail has been set, it can still be difficult to obtain the total amount required to secure the swift release of a loved one. Our payment plans make affording bail easier for more people. Apex Bail Bonds offers compassionate, fast assistance during this stressful time.
FAQs
What affects the bond amount for a felony charge?
The amount for a felony charge depends on the crime, risk level, and local court policies.
Courts consider whether the person is a flight risk, their record, and the severity of the charge. For example, violent crimes often have higher rates than non-violent offenses. The judge may also consider the person’s job status, ties to the community, or past appearances.
The bail amount in North Carolina and Virginia may start at $5,000 and exceed $100,000 for high-risk or repeat cases. We help families manage these costs through flexible payment.
What’s the difference between a misdemeanor and a felony charge?
A misdemeanor is a less serious offense, while a felony charge involves a more serious crime and higher penalties.
Misdemeanors include offenses like petty theft or trespassing. These often carry smaller fines or less than one year in jail. Felonies involve more serious issues like assault, burglary, or drug trafficking. These crimes can lead to years in prison and require higher bail amounts.
Because felonies involve higher stakes, the court sets stricter rules and higher financial guarantees for release.
Is a felony bond harder to get than for a misdemeanor?
A felony bond is harder to get because it involves more risk, higher amounts, and extra legal review.
Judges set stricter rules, including possible collateral or co-signers. Bail agents must assess each case to make sure the person will return to court. Misdemeanor bonds are simpler and faster to approve because they involve lower charges and smaller risks.
We review each case carefully to help families move forward without delays. We explain every step, collect only the needed paperwork, and provide guidance based on requirements in each county.
What is the cost of a felony bond with a bail bondsman?
The cost of felony bail bondsman is usually 10% to 15% of the total amount.
For example, if the court sets the amount at $50,000, the family may pay $5,000 to a bail bondsman. This fee payment is called a premium. It is non-refundable and covers the bondsman’s risk. Some cases may require extra security, like a house deed or vehicle title.
We offer services with transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and payment plans when families need more time. Our team works fast to help clients secure release and meet all legal steps.
