Not fixed by law
New Jersey law does not fix one rate. Each bail company charges the rate it filed with the state, so get the rate in writing.
The fee is not paid back when the case ends. Collateral is separate and comes back when the bond closes.

What That Means For The Fee
Because the rate is not one number in law, ask each agent for the rate the company filed and get it in writing before you sign.
