HOW BAIL BONDS WORK IN DALLAS COUNTY
01
Call Act Quick Bail Bonds
Call our 24/7 line at (214) 744-1414. Provide the arrested person's full legal name and the facility where they're being held. We handle the rest.
02
We Post the Bond
A licensed Act Quick agent arrives at the facility, files the bond paperwork with the court, and posts the surety bond. At Lew Sterrett, this is done at the bond posting window.
03
Release from Custody
After the bond is posted and processed, the facility releases the defendant. Release timelines vary based on facility volume and time of day.
04
Initial Check-In — Required
Within 24 to 72 hours of release, the defendant must report to our office for an initial check-in. We review all court dates, bond conditions, and reporting requirements, and complete the required paperwork. This step is mandatory — failure to complete the initial check-in results in bond forfeiture, and a new warrant is issued for the defendant’s arrest.
You Won't Do Any of This Alone
From your first call, a licensed Act Quick agent explains what happens next in plain language, not legal jargon: the bond paperwork, the conditions, the court dates, and what’s expected of you. Have a question at 2 a.m.? A real person answers. Call and we’ll walk you through it.
Your Rights
YOUR RIGHTS AFTER AN ARREST
Know your rights under Texas law. These rights apply to everyone regardless of immigration status.
01
Right to Remain Silent
You are not required to answer questions from police beyond providing identification. Anything you say can and will be used against you in court.
02
Right to an Attorney
You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, the court will appoint a public defender after magistration.
03
Right to Bail
In most cases, the Texas Constitution guarantees the right to bail. Only capital offenses and certain probation violations may be denied bail.
04
Right to a Phone Call
After booking, you have the right to make a phone call. Use it to contact a family member or call Act Quick Bail Bonds directly at (214) 744-1414.
05
Right to Know the Charges
The magistrate must inform you of the charges against you during magistration. You have the right to understand why you were arrested and what your bail amount is.
06
Right to an Interpreter
If you do not speak English fluently, you have the right to an interpreter during magistration and all court proceedings in Dallas County.
Frequently Asked Questions
COMMON BAIL BOND QUESTIONS
Quick answers to the most common questions families ask after a Dallas County arrest. Need more help? Call (214) 744-1414 24/7.
Is Act Quick Bail Bonds really open 24 hours a day?
Yes. Act Quick Bail Bonds operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including every federal and state holiday. A licensed agent answers (214) 744-1414 around the clock and can begin the bond process within minutes of your call.
How fast can you bail someone out of Lew Sterrett Justice Center?
Act Quick can post bond at Lew Sterrett the moment a magistrate sets the bond amount. Our office sits within minutes of the facility, and our agents prepare paperwork in advance so the bond is filed as soon as the magistrate completes magistration. Total release time depends on current Lew Sterrett processing volume.
How much does a bail bond cost in Dallas County?
Bail bond costs depend on the bail amount set by the magistrate and the specifics of each case — there is no single price that fits every situation. The premium is non-refundable regardless of case outcome. Act Quick offers payment plans for qualifying clients. Call (214) 744-1414 for a quote that reflects the actual case.
Which jails in Dallas County does Act Quick Bail Bonds serve?
Act Quick posts bonds at every detention facility in Dallas County: Lew Sterrett Justice Center, Irving City Jail, Garland Detention Center, Grand Prairie Detention Center, Mesquite City Jail, Carrollton City Jail, and the Tri-City Regional Jail in DeSoto serving Lancaster, Cedar Hill, and Duncanville.
Do you speak Spanish?
Yes. Bilingual agents are available 24/7 at (214) 744-1414. A complete Spanish-language guide to the Dallas County bail process is available on our Español page.
Can you post bond if the arrest happened outside Dallas County?
Yes. Act Quick coordinates bail bonds across Texas and through our nationwide bonding network. Our sister offices Act Rapid Bail Bonds (Denton County) and Act Swift Bail Bonds (Ellis County) handle those counties directly. For other Texas counties or out-of-state arrests, call (214) 744-1414 and we will arrange a bond through the appropriate jurisdiction.
What information do I need to start the bond process?
You will need the arrested person’s full legal name, date of birth, the arresting agency or jail facility, and the charges if known. The bond amount is helpful but not required — our agents can look it up. Have a valid government ID ready to sign as the indemnitor (co-signer).

WHAT DALLAS COUNTY FAMILIES SAY
Real, verified Google reviews from families we’ve helped across Dallas County.
★★★★★ 2026“I wish I could give more stars”
During a difficult time, this place is absolutely amazing. All the young ladies that I've ever spoken to here are just so kind, compassionate, they help explain things to you and to your loved ones that might be helping you. If you have questions, of course they can't give legal advice, but if this is new to you everything is scary and they do a great job of letting you know what to expect to calm you during a rough time. I wish I could give more stars I truly do. God bless y'all!
