The Voice of Secured Bail in America
The National Association of Bail Agents advocates for the secured bail profession, protects public safety, and supports bail professionals across every state.

Michelle Esquenazi
President, National Association of Bail Agents
A word from NABA leadership
Secured bail continues to play an important role in our nation’s pretrial justice system by providing courts with a structured release option built on accountability and financial responsibility. Every day, NABA members serve individuals, families, courts, and communities by helping defendants secure their release, encouraging compliance with court obligations, and assuming financial responsibility for the bonds they execute.
This year, NABA has continued to expand its presence and strengthen its voice at both the state and national levels. Through legislative engagement, industry education, regulatory advocacy, and collaboration with our state affiliates, we are working to ensure that bail professionals have a meaningful voice in conversations that shape the future of our profession.
I am honored to serve as your President and humbled by the dedication of every NABA member. This Association exists because of you and the commitment you bring to this profession every day.
Our 2026 Spring Conference in Atlanta was a tremendous success, bringing together bail professionals and industry partners from across the country. We are deeply grateful to our speakers, presenters, attendees, surety sponsors, agency and agent sponsors, and vendors whose support helped make the conference such a memorable and successful event.
As we look ahead, NABA remains focused on bringing our industry together, strengthening our state and national partnerships, educating and supporting our members, and building a stronger future for the professional bail community. One profession. One voice. A stronger future.
