Bail Bonds serving South San Antonio TX
What Our San Antonio Clients Say About Us
South San Antonio sits below downtown along the city’s South Side, a working-class stretch of brick ranch homes, older bungalows, and stucco builds that grew up around the old railroad line in 1916. Families here have deep roots, and many households are tied to the military through Lackland and the Kelly Field corridor.
We have answered calls from families across the South Side after a son was booked into the Bexar County jail. Parents have needed someone to walk them through the paperwork after a DWI arrest, and we have done that. For residents here, we have posted bonds within hours of the magistrate setting the amount. When South San Antonio families need a bondsman, they call McRae Bail Bonds.

Bail Bonds for Military Families

A booking after a Saturday night stop on Pleasanton Road. A call at 2 AM from a panicked sister whose brother was arrested near Quintana Road.

Arrests do not keep business hours, and many of our South San Antonio calls come in after dark. We have started paperwork over the phone at midnight so a family did not have to wait until morning.
Felony Bail Bond Process
Felony bonds in Bexar County run larger and carry more conditions than a simple misdemeanor, and they often need a co-signer and sometimes collateral. Families near S Presa Street have come to us confused about what a higher bond amount means for them.
We have handled drug and assault felony bonds for South San Antonio residents and explained each requirement before any money changed hands.
