Bond Hearings

Waukegan, Illinois and Cook County Lawyers: Bond Hearings

When you are arrested and accused of a crime, you may be held in custody at the police station until your bond hearing. At this court hearing you will go before a bond court judge who will decide whether to release you or continue to hold you in custody. If the judge rules that you can be released, he or she will set certain conditions for release. Our attorneys can help to minimize the conditions of your release and secure the lowest possible bond.
