Who We Are
A Minnesota Bail Bond Company Based in Big Lake.
GPS Bail Bonds is the registered business name of Guardian Pretrial Services, LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company based in Big Lake, in Sherburne County. We provide bail bond assistance to individuals and families throughout Minnesota.
When someone is arrested, families usually have the same urgent questions: where the person is being held, whether bail has been set, and what it takes to arrange a bond. We answer those questions directly, explain the options that may be available and help with the paperwork when a bond is possible.
Our Purpose
To give Minnesota families clear, responsible bail bond assistance so they can make informed decisions when someone they care about is in custody.
What We Do
We help people understand court-set bail, locate official custody information, review whether a commercial surety bond may be an option and work through the paperwork involved.
How We Communicate
Plain explanations, honest answers about what may and may not be possible, and a phone line that is answered at any hour.
Our Experience and Approach
How We Help, Step by Step.
Every case is different, but the questions families need answered follow a familiar order. This is how our team works through them with you. The court and the holding facility control bail, release conditions and timing.
