What Is a Surety Bond?
A surety bond is a financial guarantee involving three parties: the principal, the obligee and the surety company.
Principal
The person or business required to obtain the bond.
Obligee
The government agency, municipality, business or other organization requiring the bond.
Surety
The company that issues the bond and provides the financial guarantee required by the obligee.
Types of Surety Bonds We Can Help With
Bond requirements vary by industry, government agency, contract and individual situation.
License & Permit Bonds
Many professions and businesses are required to maintain a bond as a condition of obtaining or renewing a license or permit.
Contractor Bonds
Contractors may need bonds for municipal permits, construction projects, public work or contractual obligations.
Texas Title Bonds
A bonded title may be required when vehicle ownership cannot be established through the normal title process.
Utility Deposit Bonds
Some utility providers and municipalities allow a surety bond to satisfy certain deposit requirements instead of requiring the full amount in cash.
Court & Fiduciary Bonds
Courts may require bonds for estates, guardianships, appeals and other legal or fiduciary responsibilities.
Commercial Surety Bonds
Businesses may need specialized surety bonds to satisfy regulatory, contractual or financial obligations.
Why Use a Surety Bond?
Meet Requirements
A surety bond may be required before a license, permit, contract or other obligation can be approved.
Preserve Working Capital
Where accepted, a surety bond may provide an alternative to placing a large amount of cash on deposit.
Demonstrate Financial Responsibility
Bonds provide the obligee with a financial guarantee that certain legal, contractual or regulatory obligations will be met.
