How does a bond hearing work in South Carolina?

If you do get arrested (versus issued a courtesy summons and released) we recommend that you exercise your right to remain silent, but be polite and cooperative. Your first experience with our court system will be a bond hearing.

The sole purpose of a bond hearing is to ensure that the arrested individual appears as required at all hearings. The court will not as you to plead guilty or not guilty. There will be very limited discussion about the facts of the case. The main issues the bond hearing court will look at are: Whether or not you are a flight risk, criminal history, victim input, ties or lack of ties to the community, nature of the charges and sometimes recommendations by the state.

We are available for bond hearings and will work diligently to get you a fair bond or possibly a personal recognizance bond, which will allow you to be released without paying any bond.

Getting charged or arrested in an unfamiliar city can be devastating. Let us help control the impact!
