Wisconsin replevin bonds.
We size, underwrite & quote it.
Recover personal property that’s being wrongfully held — before the case is decided.
Wisconsin requires a bond, in an amount the judge approves, before the sheriff delivers it.
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.

Built to get the delivery moving.
The sheriff can take the property and deliver it to the plaintiff once the bond is approved and filed, so the bond is usually the gating step in a claim-and-delivery action. Here is the whole process:
Send us the file
Apply online with the affidavit or verified complaint and a description of the chattel and its value. That value drives the bond Wis. Stat. § 810.03 requires the judge to approve.
A surety specialist underwrites it
A specialist reviews the affidavit, your financials, and any collateral, then returns a quote. The penal sum is set to the property and the judge’s order — underwriting decides approval and collateral.
Execute & file
Once you bind, we issue the executed bond on the form the court requires with the power of attorney attached, ready to file so the sheriff can take the property and deliver it to you.
What it is and who needs it.
Why claim and delivery needs a bond
In Wisconsin, a replevin (or claim-and-delivery) action lets you retake specific personal property — a vehicle, equipment, inventory — that someone is wrongfully holding, before the lawsuit ends, by having the sheriff take it under a court order.
Because the property changes hands before a judge decides who is right, Wisconsin requires the plaintiff to post a bond that protects the defendant if the seizure turns out to be wrong. Under Wis. Stat. § 810.03 the bond secures the value of the property, the prosecution of the action, the property’s return if adjudged, and any damages recovered against the plaintiff.
The judge approves the amount and the sureties, so the penal sum tracks the property value. A defendant can post a redelivery bond to keep or regain the property; either way the surety underwrites the file and may require collateral on a large penal sum.
