Arizona replevin bonds.
Quote on review.
Recover personal property that’s being wrongfully held — before the case is decided. A writ of replevin requires a bond, usually double the value of the goods. The penal sum tracks the property, so we underwrite it rather than flat-rate it. A surety specialist reviews your file and returns a quote, usually within one business day.

How much does an Arizona replevin bond cost?
It is underwritten. The carrier’s base rate is 1% of the bond amount; the underwriter sets your premium from the amount, your credit and any collateral.
Built to get the writ moving.
A writ of replevin can issue quickly once the bond is posted, so the bond is usually the gating step. Here is the whole process:
Send us the file
Apply online with the affidavit, a description of the property, and its value. That value drives the penal sum the statute requires.
A surety specialist underwrites it
A specialist reviews the affidavit, your financials, and any collateral, then returns a quote. The penal sum is set by the statute and the property value — underwriting decides approval and collateral.
Execute & file
Once you bind, we issue the executed bond on the court’s required form with the power of attorney attached, ready to post so the officer can serve the writ.
How a replevin bond works, and what to have ready.
Why the court asks for it
You are suing to get back property someone else is holding, and you want it back before the case ends. The court requires a bond before it orders the property taken and returned to you.
Who it protects
The person holding the property. If the court later decides you were not entitled to it, they recover the property or its value, and their damages, up to the bond amount.
If there is a claim
The surety pays a valid claim after the court rules, and you repay the surety.
Have these ready
- The complaint and your motion or application for the writ
- A description of the property and proof of its value, such as an invoice, appraisal or loan papers
- The bond amount the court or statute requires
- The court, case number and the parties' names
- Financial statements, and collateral details for a large amount
- Your attorney's name and contact details
What it is and who needs it.
Why replevin needs a double bond
Replevin (claim-and-delivery) lets you recover specific personal property — a vehicle, equipment, inventory — that someone is wrongfully holding, before the lawsuit ends.
Because the property changes hands before a judge decides who is right, Arizona requires the plaintiff to post a bond that protects the defendant if the seizure turns out to be wrong. That is why the penal sum is typically double the value of the property.
A defendant can post a redelivery bond — also in double the value of the property — to get the goods back pending judgment. Either way the amount tracks the property, so the surety underwrites the file and may require collateral on a large penal sum.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A court bond answers to the court and the party its order protects: if the judgment or order the bond secures is not satisfied, that party can claim against it, up to the penal sum the court set.
The surety pays a valid claim after the court rules, and you repay the surety. A court bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
Term and renewal are set in the underwriter's quote; a court bond usually runs until the case or appeal it secures is resolved.
Keep the bond in force for as long as the obligation behind it runs.
How to file it

What sets the price
Court bonds are underwritten. The carrier's base rate for this bond is 1% of the bond amount; the underwriter sets your final premium from the amount the court sets, your credit and any collateral.
