Pointe Coupee Parish Bail Bonds — 24/7 Bondsman in New Roads, LA
Bail bonds for New Roads, Livonia, Fordoche, Morganza, Ventress and the False River communities. We make the drive so you do not have to.
Pointe Coupee is rural, spread out, and the only parish we serve with no interstate running through it. Everything moves on US-190 and LA-1, and getting to I-10 means driving through West Baton Rouge first. New Roads sits on False River, the oxbow lake that gives the parish its identity, with Livonia and Fordoche to the south and Morganza, Innis and Batchelor stretching north toward the Mississippi and Old River.
Distance is the practical problem here. The Pointe Coupee Parish Detention Center is on Cajun II Road outside New Roads. If you live in Batchelor or Fordoche, that is a real drive; if you live across the river in West Feliciana, it is the John James Audubon Bridge and then some. Families in this parish routinely lose half a night just travelling.
You do not have to. We handle the trip and post the bond ourselves. Pointe Coupee falls under the 18th Judicial District Court along with Iberville and West Baton Rouge — a district we work in constantly.

Local Notes for Pointe Coupee Parish
- No interstate. Pointe Coupee is reached by US-190 and LA-1. Plan on longer travel times than anywhere else we serve — which is exactly why letting us make the trip matters here.
- The Audubon Bridge changed things. The John James Audubon Bridge on LA-10 connects New Roads to St. Francisville in West Feliciana. If a case touches both parishes, we cover both sides.
- Sheriff’s office and courthouse are both on East Main. The Sheriff’s Office is at 215 East Main Street and the historic 1902 courthouse at 201 East Main Street, but the detention center is separate, out on Cajun II Road.
- Water patrol territory. The Sheriff’s Office runs water patrol on False River and the Mississippi, and boating-related arrests do come up here, particularly in summer.

What a Bond Costs in Pointe Coupee Parish
Louisiana does not let bondsmen set their own rates. Under La. R.S. 22:1443 the premium on a commercial bail bond is 12% of the face amount of the bond, or $120, whichever is greater, and La. R.S. 22:822 adds a statutory fee of $2 for every $100 of liability that goes to the parish sheriff. A $5,000 bond in New Roads costs the same as a $5,000 bond anywhere else in the state. What differs between agencies is how quickly you get answers and how the paperwork is explained — see our full breakdown of bail bond costs in Louisiana.
Ask about payment arrangements. The premium amount is fixed by statute, but we can often work with you on how it is paid. Bring it up on the first call.

Bail Bond FAQ for Pointe Coupee Parish
Where is the Pointe Coupee Parish jail?
The Pointe Coupee Parish Detention Center is at 10933 Cajun II Road, New Roads, LA 70760. It is separate from the Sheriff’s Office and the courthouse, which are both on East Main Street in New Roads.
Which court handles Pointe Coupee bail?
The 18th Judicial District Court, shared with Iberville and West Baton Rouge parishes. Pointe Coupee cases are heard at the parish courthouse at 201 East Main Street in New Roads.
Pointe Coupee is far from Denham Springs. Will you still come?
Yes. We serve the whole parish, from New Roads and Ventress to Fordoche, Morganza, Innis and Batchelor. The distance is precisely why families here call us rather than making the drive themselves in the middle of the night.
Can you handle a bond in Pointe Coupee and West Feliciana at the same time?
Yes. The two parishes are connected by the Audubon Bridge on LA-10 and we write bonds in both, so a hold on the other side of the river does not require a second agency.
