Lakewood Bail Bonds
When an arrest happens in Lakewood, the Lakewood Sheriff's Station on Clark Avenue is often the first stop. Lakewood Bail Bonds DIRECT keeps an office on the same street, giving relatives a local point of contact while the person in custody is still being processed.
This location is part of Bail Bonds Direct, a company that works across Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside counties. From Lakewood, agents also assist families in Bellflower, Cerritos, Long Beach, Paramount, Artesia, Downey and Norwalk.
Bail Bonds Direct's Clark Avenue Branch

If a defendant has been moved from the Lakewood station to another facility, the company says its agents will track down the new location and continue working on the release there.
The company emphasizes flexible payment plans structured around the co-signer's budget and states that it charges no hidden fees. It handles bonds for a wide range of charges, including DUI, drug possession, domestic violence, theft and burglary, probation violations, traffic warrants, assault and battery, and failure to appear.

From the Lakewood Station to the Bellflower Courthouse
The Lakewood Sheriff's Station is a short walk from the office, which helps when a bond needs to be posted soon after booking. Cases from Lakewood are commonly heard at the Bellflower Courthouse, about 2 miles away, or the Downey Courthouse, about 5 miles away. If the defendant is moved into county custody, the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood is about 7.5 miles from the office, and the Whittier City Jail is roughly 10 miles away.
