The 10% you pay to a bondsman is the price you pay for them to put up the rest of the money. Even if your friend makes each and every court appearance, at the end of the case, that money you paid is gone. That's the bond company's fee. If your friend skips bail, then the bonds company revokes his bond and they send bounty hunters out for him. If you signed a contract to be responsible, you could be on the hook for any costs they incur for tracking your friend down. The other option is to put up a cash bond or property bond directly with the court.
