Robert Presley Detention Center is a Riverside County detention facility in Riverside. Here’s how bail works here — and how we get your loved one home.
Where they’re held
Robert Presley Detention Center is located at 4000 Orange Street, Riverside, CA 92501. Booking and intake are handled by the Riverside County Sheriff. You can confirm someone is in custody by calling (951) 955-4500, or by searching the Riverside Sheriff inmate locator. Have the defendant’s full legal name and date of birth ready — it makes the search faster.
How we post bail here
When you call, a bilingual agent confirms the exact bail amount and which rate tier fits the situation. Paperwork is handled by e-signature in most cases — usually finished in fifteen minutes, with no drive-in required. A licensed Justice agent then walks the surety bond to the Robert Presley Detention Center desk in person.
From the facility’s side, release timing depends on the intake queue and shift change — we stay in touch with you the whole time, one point of contact from the first call to the front door.
Watch the rate
California Insurance Code § 1800 caps the bail premium at 10% of the face amount of the bond — that’s the legal ceiling, not the minimum. Anything above 10% is illegal. Walk away from any bondsman who quotes above the cap, demands wired money before paperwork is signed, has no California Department of Insurance license number visible, or pressures you to decide in under a minute. A real bondsman walks the family through the math.
