A Note for Lutz Families
Lutz sits in two counties. Arrests on the Pasco side (north of the county line, near SR-54) go to the Pasco County Jail; arrests on the Hillsborough side go to the Orient Road Jail in Tampa (see our Tampa bail bonds page). We have offices near both — one call covers either.
How to Find Out If Someone Is in Custody
- Search the Pasco Sheriff’s Office online inmate lookup using the person’s full legal name.
- Write down the booking number, charges, and any bond amount listed.
- If nothing shows yet, booking may still be in progress. Call the jail or your bondsman — we check custody status for free.
How Bail Works at Pasco County Jail
From arrest to release usually takes a few hours to a day, depending on the charge and how busy the jail is.
- Arrest and booking. ID check, fingerprints, booking photo, health screening and a warrant check. Simple bookings take about an hour.
- Bond is set. Many charges have a preset amount on the Sixth Judicial Circuit’s Pasco bond schedule. Others wait for first appearance — a video hearing with a judge within 24 hours (Florida Rule 3.130), who can set, change or deny bond, or release on recognizance (ROR).
- Call a bondsman. Give us the full name, date of birth and booking number. We verify the charges and bond amount.
- Sign and pay. The co-signer (indemnitor) signs and pays the premium — by phone, text or online.
- We post the bond. Our Land O’ Lakes office is minutes from the jail, day or night.
- Release. Usually 2–4 hours after the bond is posted. Pick your loved one up at the jail lobby.
Exception: Domestic violence and many serious felony charges must wait for first appearance. We prepare everything in advance so bond is posted the moment it’s set.
How Much Does Bail Cost in Pasco County?
$100 minimum · set by Florida law
Florida law sets the price, not the bondsman: 10% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum for state charges (federal bonds are 15%). Any “5% bail” offer is illegal — a red flag.
| Bond amount set by court | Premium you pay (state charge) |
|---|---|
| $500 | $100 (minimum) |
| $1,000 | $100 |
| $5,000 | $500 |
| $10,000 | $1,000 |
| $25,000 | $2,500 |
Good to know:
- Not refundable. The premium stays paid even if charges are dropped.
- Each charge counts separately. Three $500 bonds = three $100 premiums ($300).
- Cash bail is an option — but you post 100% with the jail until the case ends.
A transfer fee may apply for out-of-county bonds. We quote every cost before you sign.

Co-Signing, Collateral & Payment
The person who signs is the indemnitor (co-signer). Know what you’re agreeing to:
- You guarantee court appearance. If the defendant skips court, you can owe the full bond — not just the 10%.
- Collateral isn’t always needed. A co-signer with steady income often qualifies. Large or high-risk bonds may need a title or property, returned when the case closes.
- What to bring: photo ID, your address and employer, plus the defendant’s full name, date of birth and booking number.
- How to pay: cash or major credit card; payment plans for qualified clients. Sign remotely with our online application.

Land O' Lakes Bail Bond FAQs
How fast can I get someone out of the Pasco County Jail?
Once bond is set and the paperwork is signed, most releases take about 2 to 4 hours after the bond is posted. Delays happen during busy booking periods, shift changes, or if there is a hold from another county.
How much is a bail bond in Florida?
The premium is 10% of the bond amount for state charges, with a $100 minimum. A $5,000 bond costs $500. The rate is set by Florida law and is the same at every licensed agency.
Can I get a bail bond without collateral?
Yes, in many cases. If the co-signer has stable income and local ties, collateral is often not needed. Large bonds or higher-risk cases may require it.
Do I have to come to the office?
No. Aftermath Bail Bonds can complete the application, co-signer agreement, and payment by phone, text, or online. Learn how bailing out from home works.
Can I bail someone out on a weekend or holiday?
Yes. The Pasco County Jail operates 24/7, first appearance hearings are held every day including holidays, and our bondsmen are on call around the clock.
Why can’t my loved one bond out right away?
Some charges — especially domestic violence and certain serious felonies — must wait for the first appearance hearing, which happens within 24 hours of arrest. There may also be a hold from another county or a probation violation.
Is the bail bond fee refundable?
No. The 10% premium pays for the bondsman’s guarantee to the court and is not returned, even if the case is dismissed. Collateral, if any, is returned when the bond is discharged.
What happens if the defendant misses court?
The court usually issues a warrant and the bond can be forfeited. The co-signer may owe the full bond amount. Call your bondsman immediately — acting fast often fixes the problem.
How do I choose a bail bondsman in Land O’ Lakes?
Pick a Florida-licensed agent (check the license on the DFS site) with a local office near the Pasco County Jail, who answers 24/7, charges exactly 10%, and explains the contract before you sign.
Do you serve Lutz, Wesley Chapel, and the rest of Pasco County?
Yes. We serve Land O’ Lakes, Lutz, Odessa, Wesley Chapel, New Port Richey, Zephyrhills, Dade City, Hudson, and all of Pasco County, plus Hillsborough (Tampa), Pinellas, and Polk.
