Curtis Burkett — Marine Corps Veteran & Your Morgan County Bondsman
Patriot Bail Bonds was founded by Curtis Burkett, a Marine Corps veteran who came home with a mission: show up for families when they need help most. After seeing too many people sitting in jail simply waiting for their day in court, he started Patriot in 2005 — and he still works every case personally alongside his family, including a son serving in the Marines and a daughter who is a criminal justice graduate.
That's why Wartburg families get fast responses, straight answers, and zero judgment — from the first phone call all the way through your day in court at the Morgan County Courthouse.

I can't say enough good things about this company. From the very first phone call, they were professional, patient, and incredibly understanding. The process can feel overwhelming, but they explained every step clearly. They responded quickly, worked efficiently, and treated me with respect the entire time. What stood out most was their honesty and genuine care — I never felt like 'just another case.' They went above and beyond to make a stressful situation easier to handle.

How Do Bail Bonds Work in Morgan County?
A bail bond is a guarantee that gets someone out of jail before trial. After an arrest, a judge sets a bail amount. Instead of paying it all, you pay a licensed bondsman a non-refundable 10% premium — set by Tennessee law. The bondsman posts the full bail with the court, and the defendant is released on the promise to appear at every court date.
Arrest and booking
The defendant is booked at the jail, and a judge sets the bail amount based on the charges and flight risk.
Pay the 10% premium
You pay a non-refundable 10% premium and sign a bail agreement with a licensed bondsman.
The bondsman posts the bond
The bondsman guarantees the full bail amount to the court so the defendant can be released.
Release
The defendant is released from jail, usually within 2 to 6 hours of the bond being posted.
