How it works

Built for the appointment order.

A receiver can’t take control of the property until the bond is filed, so the appointment waits on the surety. Here is the whole process:

TODAY · 10 MINUTES

Send us the file

Apply online with the case, the appointing court, and the bond amount the court has directed. We need a sense of the assets in receivership so we can size and underwrite the bond.

WITHIN 1 BUSINESS DAY

A surety specialist underwrites it

A specialist reviews your background, the receivership, and any collateral, then returns a quote. A large receivership may be collateralized or supported by financials.

ON APPROVAL

Execute & file

Once you bind, we issue the executed bond for the court to approve, so you can be sworn and enter on your duties as receiver.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What a receiver bond guarantees

When a court puts property, a business, or disputed assets under the control of a receiver — or a master or referee in equity — it requires a bond before that person takes over. The bond protects everyone with a stake in the assets.

It guarantees the receiver will faithfully discharge their duties, account for the property, and obey the court’s orders. If a receiver mishandles or misappropriates assets, the surety answers for the loss, then pursues the receiver.

Because the bond is underwritten on the receiver, expect a background and credit review and, for a large receivership, supporting financials or collateral. We tell you what a given file needs before you commit.

Ohio StatuteR.C. 2735.03 provides that before a receiver appointed under R.C. 2735.01 enters upon the receiver’s duties, the receiver must be sworn to perform them faithfully and, with surety approved by the court, judge, or clerk, execute a bond to such person and in such sum as the court or judge directs, conditioned that the receiver will faithfully discharge the duties of receiver in the action and obey the orders of the court.

The application takes about ten minutes.

These are the actual underwriting fields — the case, the bond amount, your background, and your financials. Submit once and a surety specialist reviews everything together and returns a quote, typically within one business day. Free until your bond is issued.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

What is an Ohio receiver bond? +
It is the bond a court-appointed receiver must post before taking control of property or a business. Under R.C. 2735.03, the receiver executes a bond, with court-approved surety, in the sum the court directs, conditioned on faithfully discharging the receiver’s duties and obeying the court’s orders.
How much does it cost? +
It is underwritten, not flat-rated. The court sets the penal sum under R.C. 2735.03, generally sized to the assets in receivership. A surety specialist reviews your background, the receivership, and any collateral, and returns a premium quote, usually within one business day.
Who sets the bond amount? +
The appointing court does. R.C. 2735.03 leaves the sum to the court or judge, which typically fixes it to the value of the property and assets the receiver will control. We size and underwrite the bond to whatever amount the court directs.
Will I need to post collateral? +
For a large receivership, often yes. The bond is frequently supported by financials and, for substantial amounts, collateralized with cash, a letter of credit, or pledged assets. We tell you what your specific file requires before you commit.
How fast can the bond be issued? +
A specialist typically returns a quote within one business day of a complete application. Once you bind and any collateral is in place, the executed bond is ready for the court to approve so you can be sworn and enter on your duties.
