Surety Bond (General)

A surety bond is a three-party guarantee (principal, obligee, surety) that the bonded person or business will follow the required laws, rules, or contract terms. If the principal causes a covered loss by violating those obligations, a harmed party can make a claim on the bond (up to the bond amount).
