The court has put property — or a whole operating business — in your hands. The receiver’s bond guarantees you’ll discharge those duties faithfully while you manage it. The court specifies the amount, and we underwrite the file behind it. A surety specialist reviews your application and returns a quote, usually within one business day.
















The bond is effective as of the date of your appointment and has to be posted with the court before you take full control of the property or the business. Here is the whole process:
Apply online with the order of appointment, the style of the case — plaintiff, defendant, case number, and the court that will hold the bond — and a description of the property or business you are being appointed to manage.
A specialist reviews the order, the receiver’s credit and finances, and any collateral, then returns a quote. The amount is fixed by the court — underwriting decides approval and any security we need behind it.
Once you bind, we issue the executed bond on the court’s required form with the power of attorney attached, ready to post so you can take control of the property or begin operating the business.
When a Florida court appoints a receiver to take custody of disputed or distressed property, that receiver often does more than hold it — the order authorizes managing the real property, or operating the business itself, while the case is litigated.
The receiver’s bond is what stands behind that authority. It is conditioned on the faithful discharge of the receiver’s duties: collecting and preserving receivership property, operating it in the ordinary course, accounting honestly, and distributing it as the court directs. If the receiver mismanages or misappropriates, the bond makes the estate whole — and the surety looks to the receiver to repay it.
Because the surety stands behind the entire receivership, the bond is underwritten on the receiver’s credit and finances, and a large estate can call for collateral. Florida also lets the court approve alternative security — a letter of credit or a deposit of funds — instead of a bond, though receivership property itself can never be used as that security. We flag which route your order allows before you commit.
These are the actual underwriting fields — the case style and the court that holds the bond, a description of the property or business, the receiver, and your finances.
