One County, Two Kinds Of Jail
Baldwin County has a single long-term detention facility: Baldwin County Corrections Center, 200 Hand Avenue, Bay Minette, AL 36507. Every other facility in the county — Daphne, Fairhope, Foley, Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, Bay Minette, Robertsdale, Loxley, Silverhill, Elberta, and Summerdale — is a short-term city police holding facility used for initial processing.
City jails are short-term holding only. Fingerprints, photograph, warrant check, personal information — then transfer. After initial processing, all defendants transfer to the Corrections Center, and bail is set and posted there. M&J Bail Bonds handles every Baldwin County facility 24/7 — call (833) MNJ-BAIL immediately after any Baldwin County arrest.
Custody records are published by the Baldwin County Sheriff's Office — sheriff.baldwincountyal.gov. Court dates are published at alacourt.gov.

City Jails Do Not Accept Bail Bonds
If a defendant is still in a city holding facility, the bond cannot be posted yet. We track the transfer and post at the Corrections Center the moment the booking record and bail amount exist.

Baldwin County Court System
Baldwin County is the only county in Alabama's 28th Judicial Circuit. Bail is a court decision — the jail cannot raise, lower, or waive it. Every state criminal case in the county runs through 312 Courthouse Square in Bay Minette.

Start Bail ApplicationWhat To Expect
Alabama law (Ala. Code § 12-19-311) fixes the bail bond premium at exactly 10% of the bail amount set by the court. The same rate applies everywhere in Baldwin County. M&J charges exactly that, and state fees are disclosed upfront.

Premium rate verified by FindLaw →
Premiums are fixed at 10% by Ala. Code § 12-19-311 (published by Justia at law.justia.com). Federal bonds carry a 15% premium. Ranges above are illustrative only and are not a quote or a promise of bail.
Ready to start the bail process?
Start Bail ApplicationFlexible Payment Options
Most families don't have the full 10% premium sitting in a checking account — and that is completely normal. M&J Bail Bonds offers flexible payment arrangements tailored to your financial situation so cost is never the reason your loved one stays in jail longer than necessary.
We work with you on a payment schedule for the premium. Ask our agents about monthly payment arrangements when you call. No two situations are the same — we will find something that works for your family.
Depending on the bond amount, collateral may or may not be required. Many DUI bonds — especially first and second offenses — do not require collateral at all. Ask us about your specific situation.
We accept Visa, Mastercard, Amex, ACH / bank transfer, Zelle, and cash. Ask about which methods work best for your payment plan arrangement.
Important
The 10% premium is non-refundable under Alabama law — it is earned the moment the bond is posted, regardless of how the case resolves, even if charges are dropped. This is not M&J policy — it is Alabama state law (Ala. Code § 12-19-311). Our agents will explain this fully before you sign anything.

Who Usually Qualifies
Most standard DUI defendants qualify for bail once booking is complete and bail has been set, especially when there is no serious injury allegation, no active hold, and a responsible cosigner is available.
Who Doesn't Qualify Automatically
Bail can be delayed, increased, or denied when there is a judge's hold, an active warrant, a prior failure to appear, a serious-injury allegation, or no approved cosigner or collateral for a high-risk bond. Call us and we will tell you what is actually on the booking record.
Give us a name and date of birth and we will tell you which facility, which court, and what the bail is.

Start Bail ApplicationStep By Step
From arrest at a city police department to release from the Corrections Center.
City police, a Baldwin County deputy, or a state trooper makes the arrest.
City departments process the defendant locally for a few hours up to 72 hours. Unincorporated-area arrests go straight to the Corrections Center.
ID confirmation, health screening, property inventory, fingerprints, and photograph. The booking record must exist before a bond can be written.
Misdemeanor bail follows the county bail schedule with no court appearance. Felony bail is set by a 28th Circuit judge at arraignment in Bay Minette.
Call (833) MNJ-BAIL with the full name, date of birth, and city of arrest. We deliver the bond to 200 Hand Avenue in person, at any hour.
