Collateral Bail Bonds

in Springfield, MO

In cases where a standard bail bond is not enough, a collateral bail bond can provide the additional security the court requires. At American Western Bonding, we offer collateral bail bond services in Springfield, MO, allowing clients to use property or other valuable assets to secure the release of a loved one.

What Is a Collateral Bail Bond?

A collateral bail bond is a type of bail secured by physical assets—such as real estate, vehicles, jewelry, or other valuables. This form of bond is typically required in higher-risk cases or when the bail amount is unusually high.

The collateral serves as a guarantee that the defendant will appear in court. If the defendant complies with all court requirements, the collateral is returned upon case resolution.

What Can Be Used as Collateral?

We accept a range of asset types that can be used to secure a bail bond:

  • Real Estate (homes, land) – Residential or commercial property can be pledged as collateral, often covering higher bond amounts.
  • Vehicles (cars, trucks, motorcycles) – Titled vehicles in good condition may be used to guarantee the bail amount.
  • Bank Accounts or Investment Assets – Cash savings or investment holdings can be applied toward securing the bond.
  • Jewelry, Collectibles, or Other High-Value Items – Items of verified value, such as gold, watches, or rare collectibles, can be considered based on appraisal.
