Why Join Our Team?

At Bexar County Pretrial Services, it is our job to assist the courts by collecting information from the defendants and compiling a report of the defendant’s past demographic and criminal history. Based on the information provided, the court can decide whether to release someone on Pretrial Supervision. If the court orders conditions and/or releases someone on a personal recognizance bond, it is our job to supervise the defendant during the pretrial status of their case.  During this supervision, we will then report compliance or non-compliance to the court. If you are looking for a career in criminal justice where you can help make positive changes in people’s lives, consider Bexar County Pretrial Services. Pretrial Services offers an exciting work environment where you can learn and grow.
