Getting someone out of jail in Ball Ground, GA
Ball Ground is the far north end of Cherokee County, right where I-575 hands off to SR 515 toward Pickens County. It is a small city with a small court — one session a month, on the third Friday — and that single detail matters more here than anywhere else in the county.
A Ball Ground arrest still goes south to the Adult Detention Center in Canton, about fifteen minutes down I-575. If the charge is a state offense rather than a city ordinance, the case moves to Cherokee County State or Superior Court at 90 North Street, not to City Hall on Valley Street. We will tell you which one you are dealing with before you get in the car.

Which court hears a Ball Ground case
Ball Ground Municipal Court
Ball Ground City Hall, 215 Valley Street, Ball Ground, GA 30107 (mailing: P.O. Box 285)
770-735-2123
Court is held on the third Friday of each month at 10:00 a.m. The city solicitor is available to discuss cases starting at 10:00 a.m. on your court date.
The city accepts cash, checks, money orders and Visa/Mastercard, plus online payment. Mailed payments must include the yellow copy of the citation, signed on the back. Allow about 72 hours after receiving a citation before calling for the fine amount.
Court information changes. Session days, judges and hours are set by each court and are updated without notice. Always confirm with the clerk before you drive, and never rely on a website — including this one — instead of the date printed on your citation or bond paperwork.

Any charge, any court
Felony Bail Bonds
Felonies are Superior Court cases in Cherokee County, and the most serious ones can only be bonded by a Superior Court judge. We know the difference and move fast.
Misdemeanor Bail Bonds
Most misdemeanors land in Cherokee County State Court or a city municipal court. These are usually the fastest releases we write.
DUI Bail Bonds
DUI is a bail restricted offense in Georgia, so a secured bond is required. We handle first offenses and repeat charges out of the Cherokee County ADC.
Domestic Violence Bonds
Family violence cases carry mandatory no-contact conditions. We explain exactly what your loved one can and cannot do after release.
Drug Charge Bail Bonds
Possession, sale and trafficking charges are treated very differently under Georgia law. Some require a Superior Court judge before any bond is set.
Probation Violation Bonds
Probation violations often start with no bond at all. We tell you honestly whether a bond is possible and what has to happen first.
Ball Ground bail bonds: common questions
To the Cherokee County Adult Detention Center at 498 Chattin Drive, Canton, GA 30115. There is only one county jail in Cherokee County, and everyone arrested in Ball Ground by any agency goes there to be booked.
The same as everywhere else in Georgia: a licensed surety may charge up to 15% of the face amount of the bond, with a minimum of $50 per bonded charge, under O.C.G.A. § 17-6-30. The premium is non-refundable. A $5,000 bond costs $750; a $20,000 bond costs $3,000.
Yes. You can sign in person at our Canton office at 2920 Marietta Highway, Unit 106, or remotely by email or fax. We work with out-of-town and out-of-state co-signers constantly.
Our office is on Marietta Highway in Canton, minutes from the Adult Detention Center. Once a bond has been set by a judge and a co-signer has signed, an agent is on the way. The remaining time is the jail’s own release processing, which we do not control — but we do not add to it either.
