Why Pomona Parents Call Us About Juvenile Arrests
Parents look up Pomona juvenile bail bonds to bring a child home. Our agents start with what California law allows. Bail Bonds Pomona has served 867+ clients in 20+ years of business.
We Handle the Paperwork and the Jail
No bond paperwork exists while a case sits in juvenile court. Once an adult court sets bail, our agent prepares and files the bond, then keeps you posted until release.
Confidential and Discreet
Details about your child's arrest stay with the agents working your call. We treat each conversation with discretion and talk about your son or daughter with care.
Respect for Parents, With No Judgment
Your family gets courtesy from us, with no lecture about the arrest. We answer the same question twice if it helps and keep the talk on your child's next practical step.
Patient With First-Time Callers
Juvenile court has its own vocabulary, and we explain it at your pace, from petition to transfer. Legal questions belong with the public defender or a private juvenile defense attorney.
How Bail Works for a Minor Arrested in Pomona
Police and probation make a minor's first release calls, and a juvenile judge makes the rest. You can post bail only after a transfer to adult court; see our Pomona bail guide.
Temporary Custody Under WIC 625
Officers must advise an arrested minor of the rights to silence and counsel (WIC 625). At Pomona's police station, 490 W. Mission Blvd., WIC 207.1 keeps youth apart from adult prisoners, and WIC 625.6 requires a lawyer consultation before custodial questioning.
A Citation to Appear Before Probation
Besides releasing the youth outright (WIC 626), the officer can write a notice to appear before county probation. Once the youth or a parent signs a promise to appear, WIC 626(c) requires release at once, with no bail or bond.
Probation Intake at Juvenile Hall
Intake and Detention Control officers from LA County Probation screen the youth, choose detention, house arrest or release with a citation, and contact the parent. Under WIC 628, probation must release the youth to a parent, guardian or relative absent a listed detention ground.
The Detention Hearing Before a Juvenile Judge
Absent a prosecutor's petition, WIC 631 requires a detained minor's release within 48 hours, excluding nonjudicial days. A detention hearing follows by the next judicial day after filing (WIC 632), and the judge rules on custody with no bail involved.
Transfer to Adult Criminal Court
A juvenile judge can move a felony alleged at 16 or older to adult court under WIC 707, after finding the youth not amenable to rehabilitation there. Bail then becomes possible, set by an adult judge who may use the 2026 felony schedule.
Now an Adult, Accused of an Act Before 18
An adult arrested for an act alleged at 17 starts in juvenile court. WIC 603 bars adult prosecution without a juvenile judge's order, and WIC 604 has an adult court suspend its case once that age appears, so bail waits on a transfer.
Arrested at 18 or older for a new felony? See our felony bail bonds.
Three Simple Steps to a Bail Bond
1
Initial Payment
Phone (888) 998-9511 whenever the arrest happens. Once you know the bail amount, you review and sign the agreement, then make a low down payment toward the standard 10% premium.
2
Customized Payment Plan
We split the remaining premium into a written payment schedule built around your budget. A long case adds no second premium, since California outlawed renewal premiums in 2022 (Penal Code 1276.1).
3
Securing Release
A licensed agent files the bond with the jail or station holding your relative. That facility sets its own release pace, and we keep your family posted until your relative walks out.

Juvenile Bail Bond FAQ
These answers come from real searches about minors and bail. Pomona Courthouse South hears juvenile justice and adult criminal cases, and a lawyer should advise on your own case.
Can a 15 Year Old Get a Bail Bond?
Not while the case stays in juvenile court, which sets no bail. A 15-year-old's case reaches adult court only for a listed WIC 707(b) offense, and only when the arrest comes after juvenile jurisdiction ends. Ask a juvenile defense attorney about your child's options.
How Much Is Bail on a $1000 Bond?
If an adult court sets bail at $1,000, a standard 10% premium means you pay $100, once per bond (PC 1276.1). The agency keeps that premium in most cases, dropped charges included. For bigger bonds and payment plans, read our bail bond cost guide.
Do I Still Need a Bail Bond Under LA County Zero Bail?
In juvenile court, no. For adults, the Pre-Arraignment Release Protocol sets $0 bail on Magistrate Review, Book and Release and Cite and Release arrests, though a magistrate may hold someone until arraignment. Serious or violent felonies carry money bail or no release before arraignment, so some adult cases still need a bond.
Where Can I Find Bail Bonds in Pomona, California?
You can reach Bail Bonds Pomona 24/7 at (888) 998-9511 and start by phone from home. We cover Los Angeles County and San Bernardino County, including West Valley Detention Center, and we tell parents up front when a juvenile case has no bond to post.
Can You Go to Jail for Not Paying Bail Bonds in California?
Debt alone cannot jail you. California's Constitution (art. I, sec. 10) forbids imprisonment in a civil suit over a debt, and a missed premium payment is a contract balance. An agent can still surrender a defendant under PC 1300, subject to refund rules in PC 1300(b) and 10 CCR 2090.
