San Jose Bail Bonds
On the stretch of North First Street that faces the county's justice campus, Luna Bail Bonds has helped San Jose families post bail for people held at the Santa Clara County Main Jail. The office is close enough that agents can move between the office, the jail and the courthouse on foot.
Luna Bail Bonds also maintains a second location in the city of Santa Clara. Its San Jose team is known among clients for detailed knowledge of the county jail and for explaining fees and next steps carefully to first-time callers.
Luna Bail Bonds on North First Street
Luna Bail Bonds concentrates on bail for arrests across San Jose and Santa Clara County, with most cases running through the Main Jail just down the street. Clients describe agents who know the county jail's procedures well and can answer questions on the spot, which helps families who do not know how booking, bail and release fit together.
The company has a sister office on Washington Street in Santa Clara. For families in either city, that means a nearby place to sign paperwork while the bond itself is posted at the downtown San Jose facility.

How Clients Rate Their Experience With Luna
Most reviewers describe compassionate, efficient agents who explained fees clearly, posted bonds quickly and kept families updated, with several noting that staff were especially knowledgeable about the county jail. A recurring comment is that agents were willing to work with clients who worked with them. The feedback is not all positive, however: one recent reviewer reported an unpleasant encounter near the office with someone they associated with the company.
Half a Mile From Booking and Arraignment
The office is about half a mile from the Santa Clara County Main Jail and about half a mile from the Santa Clara County Hall of Justice, so bonds can be delivered quickly once they are signed. Elmwood Correctional Facility in Milpitas is about 4.9 miles away. North county cases heard at the Palo Alto Courthouse are roughly 14 miles from the office.

Bail Steps for a Santa Clara County Arrest
- Booking at the Main Jail: Most people arrested in San Jose are taken to the Santa Clara County Main Jail for booking, a short distance from Luna's office.
- Bail on the record: Once booking is done, the jail lists the bail from the county schedule. A judge may adjust it at the first appearance.
- Meeting with Luna: Call or stop by the North First Street office. An agent will explain how the fees work and what the co-signer needs to provide.
- Signing the bond: The co-signer signs the agreement and pays the premium. The agent then files the bond at the jail.
- Out and on calendar: The jail completes release processing. The defendant must appear at every scheduled hearing until the case is resolved.
