Chickasaw, Alabama
Chickasaw, Alabama is a small city of approximately 6,200 residents in the northwest corner of Mobile County — bordered by Prichard to the east, Saraland to the north, and north Mobile to the south. The city covers just 4.56 square miles.
Chickasaw has a distinct industrial character shaped by its history as a shipyard community. The Port of Chickasaw sits on Chickasaw Creek in the eastern part of the city. Craft Highway runs north–south as the city's primary corridor, with commercial and residential areas concentrated along it.
The Chickasaw Police Department operates from 224 North Craft Highway with approximately 21 sworn officers, and maintains its own jail for initial processing before defendants are transferred to Mobile County Metro Jail. Property crime is the dominant arrest category in Chickasaw — burglary, theft, and auto theft are consistently the most reported offenses.
M&J Bail Bonds is headquartered in Mobile, minutes from Metro Jail, and handles Chickasaw arrests 24/7. A bail bond in Chickasaw costs exactly 10% of the bail amount set by the court — fixed by Alabama law under Ala. Code § 12-19-311 — Alabama's bail bond fee law.

Call (833) MNJ-BAIL or (251) 421-1834. Give us the full name and date of birth — we track the booking record through both the Chickasaw and Mobile County systems and have the bond ready the moment the defendant reaches Metro Jail.
Chickasaw PD Jail & Mobile County Metro Jail
Chickasaw arrests touch two facilities: the Chickasaw Police Department jail on North Craft Highway for initial processing and short-term detention, and Mobile County Metro Jail for full booking, bail, and release. Longer-term sentences are served at Metro Jail or state prison — not the city facility.

Finding A Chickasaw Inmate
Check mobileso.com for Metro Jail bookings after transfer. For initial Chickasaw holds, call CPD at (251) 452-6455 with the detainee's full name and date of birth. Or call M&J Bail Bonds at (833) MNJ-BAIL — we check both facilities for you immediately.

Where Bail Is Set
Bail is set at Mobile County Metro Jail after booking is complete — not at the Chickasaw Police Department facility. Misdemeanor bail follows the county schedule. Felony bail is set by a Circuit Court judge at arraignment. If you cannot locate your loved one at Metro Jail right after a Chickasaw arrest, they may still be in initial processing or in transit — call us and we will tell you exactly where they are.

License Suspensions & State Fees
License suspensions are administered by the Alabama State Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) — view official license suspension information →. First and second offenses also carry a $100 Impaired Drivers Trust Fund fee (§ 32-5A-191.2).
Court Dates & Case Records
Mobile County court information is published through the 13th Judicial Circuit at mobile.alacourt.gov, and statewide case and court-date lookups run through alacourt.gov. Federal cases are docketed at alsd.uscourts.gov.
Missing a court date in the 13th Circuit means a bench warrant and bond forfeiture. Call us before a date is missed — it is far easier to fix in advance.
Payment Plans For Chickasaw Families
Many Chickasaw families do not have the full 10% premium available upfront — that is completely normal. We offer monthly installment plans, co-signer arrangements, and collateral options on larger bonds.
Accepted: Visa, Mastercard, Amex, ACH, Zelle, and cash. Mobile agents come to you if needed. See /alabama/payment-plan-bail-bonds/ and /alabama/no-collateral-bail-bonds/.

What Does A Bail Bond Cost After A Chickasaw Arrest?
Alabama law (Ala. Code § 12-19-311) fixes the bail bond premium at exactly 10% of the bail amount — the same rate across all of Mobile County. No exceptions.
Charge Level
Avg Bail Range
Your Cost (10%)
01Misdemeanor, petty theft, simple assault
Bail: $500 – $2,500
Your cost: $50 – $250
02DUI, auto theft, drug possession
Bail: $2,500 – $10,000
Your cost: $250 – $1,000
03Burglary, felony drug charges
Bail: $10,000 – $25,000
Your cost: $1,000 – $2,500
04Robbery, felony assault, trafficking

Your cost: $2,500 – $7,500
05Serious violent felony
Bail: $75,000+
Your cost: $7,500+
How The Math Works
Bail is $15,000. Alabama's regulated premium is 10%, so your cost is $1,500 plus state administrative fees. M&J posts the full $15,000 with the court. The premium is earned and non-refundable once the bond is posted — that is state law, not our policy.
Read the statute: Ala. Code § 12-19-311
10%State-Set Premium
Premium rate verified by FindLaw →
Alabama state administrative fees are added on top of the 10% premium under Ala. Code § 12-19-311 (verified by FindLaw at codes.findlaw.com). M&J discloses the exact total — premium plus state fees — before you sign anything. Ranges are illustrative only and are not a quote or promise of bail.

Payment Plans
For Real Families
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.
Payment Plans
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.
Collateral Options
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.
Multiple Payment Methods
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.

Start Bail ApplicationBail Eligibility
Who Qualifies For Bail After A Chickasaw Arrest?
Most people arrested in Chickasaw are bailable. Alabama's constitution guarantees bail in most cases — but Aniah's Law created an exception for certain violent offenses, and federal cases follow a different process.
Misdemeanor Arrests — Almost Always Bailable
The county bail schedule applies, so no judge is required. DUI, simple assault, petty theft, and misdemeanor possession all fall here, and release is often same-day once bail is set at Metro Jail.
- County schedule — no court appearance needed
- Bond can be posted 24 hours a day at Metro Jail
- See /alabama/misdemeanor-bail-bonds/
Authority
Mobile County bail schedule
Felony Arrests — Usually Bailable
A Circuit Court judge sets bail at arraignment. Chickasaw's elevated burglary rate means felony property crime bonds are among the most common requests we handle from this city.
- Bail set by a 13th Circuit judge
- Preliminary hearing in District Court confirms probable cause
- See /alabama/felony-bail-bonds/
Authority
13th Judicial Circuit — Mobile County
Aniah's Law Charges — Bail May Be Denied
For murder, robbery 1st, burglary 1st, and drug trafficking, a judge CAN deny bail after an Aniah hearing. Call M&J immediately — we check Aniah status in real time.
- Applies only to enumerated violent felonies
- Requires a hearing; denial is not automatic
- We post the moment a judge grants bail
Authority
Ala. Const. Art. I § 16, am. 2022 (Aniah's Law)
Port-Related Federal Charges — Different Process
The Port of Chickasaw on Chickasaw Creek can generate federal jurisdiction cases. Federal bonds carry a 15% premium and a U.S. Magistrate sets bail rather than a county judge.
- U.S. Magistrate sets conditions of release
- 15% premium on federal bonds
- See /alabama/federal-bail-bonds/
Authority
U.S. District Court — Southern District of Alabama
Who Usually Qualifies
Usually released same day: misdemeanors, first-offense DUI, petty theft, and simple possession booked into Metro Jail after Chickasaw processing.
Who Doesn't Qualify Automatically
Not automatic: Aniah's Law felonies, outstanding bench warrants, probation holds, and federal or immigration detainers. Call us and we will monitor the docket.

Chickasaw Arrest & Booking
What Happens First
When someone is arrested by the Chickasaw Police Department inside Chickasaw city limits, this is the exact sequence.
1
Step 1 — The Arrest
Chickasaw Police Department officers make the arrest within city limits. CPD operates from 224 North Craft Highway, Chickasaw, AL 36671 (also referenced as 8 Lange Drive in some records). Main: (251) 452-6455 · Alt: (251) 452-6473 · Non-emergency: (251) 452-0571 · City Hall: (251) 452-6450. Roughly 21 sworn officers patrol Chickasaw.
2
Step 2 — Initial Processing At Chickasaw Jail
Defendants are taken to the Chickasaw Police Department facility at 224 North Craft Highway for initial booking — fingerprinting, photographs, warrant checks, and personal information entry. The Chickasaw jail is a short-term city detention facility.
3
Step 3 — Transfer To Mobile County Metro Jail
After initial processing, defendants requiring extended detention are transferred to Mobile County Metro Jail at 450 St. Emanuel Street, Mobile, AL 36603. This is where bail is formally set and where M&J Bail Bonds posts the bond.
4
Step 4 — Call M&J Bail Bonds Immediately
Call us the moment you know about the arrest — even before transfer. We access the Mobile County booking system through the Mobile County inmate search — mobileso.com and track the defendant through both facilities. (833) MNJ-BAIL — 24/7.

Most Common Charges
In Chickasaw, Alabama
Property crime dominates arrests in Chickasaw — burglary, theft, and auto theft have historically been the most reported offenses, with violent crime running slightly above the state average. The city's small 4.56-square-mile footprint and dense residential character concentrate enforcement activity along Craft Highway and the surrounding neighborhoods. Crime statistics are drawn from FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data and published analyses of that data; this is general information only, not legal advice, and every bail amount depends on case facts, criminal history, and judicial discretion.
Not sure which category applies? Call us — we will look up the booking record and tell you exactly what charge was filed and what bail was set. This information is general — not legal advice.
