Abstract

A method, system and program storage device in a client/server environment comprises establishing a connection with the server for the purpose of obtaining at least one insurance policy. An individual'"'"'s request to obtain a bail bond insurance policy is communicated to the server. Personal information is obtained about the individual. The personal information is communicated to the server where the server processes the personal information and generates insurance rate information at least in part based on the personal information. The insurance rate information is received from the server. The insurance rate information is displayed for selection. A selection of the individual is communicated to the server where the server generates a bail bond insurance policy at least in part based on the selection with the individual as the holder of the bail bond insurance policy.

Claims

1. A method for obtaining insurance in a client/server environment, the client comprising at least one processor coupled to memory programmed to perform the method comprising the steps of:

establishing a connection with the server for the purpose of obtaining at least one insurance policy;

communicating to the server an individual'"'"'s request to obtain a bail bond insurance policy;

obtaining personal information about the individual;

communicating said personal information to the server where the server processes said personal information and generates insurance rate information at least in part based on said personal information;

receiving from the server said insurance rate information;

displaying said insurance rate information for selection; and

communicating a selection of the individual to the server where the server generates a bail bond insurance policy at least in part based on said selection with the individual as the holder of the bail bond insurance policy.

2. The method as recited in claim 1, further comprising the steps of obtaining contact information for the individual, and communicating said contact information to the server.

3. The method as recited in claim 1, in which the server further stores information for said generated bail bond insurance policy in a customer database with at least password protection.

4. The method as recited in claim 1, in which said personal information at least comprises the individual'"'"'s age, location and criminal history.

5. The method as recited in claim 1, in which said insurance rate information is displayed as a plurality of insurance rates for a plurality of term lengths.

establishing a connection with the server for the purpose of obtaining payment on said bail bond insurance policy to post as bail for the individual;

communicating at least a password to the server to access said information for said bail bond insurance policy; and

communicating circumstances of an arrest of the individual to the server where the server releases the payment.

8. A system comprising:

a client programmed to be operable for obtaining and communicating an individual'"'"'s request to obtain a bail bond insurance policy and personal information about the individual, said client being further operable for displaying insurance rate information for selection and for obtaining and communicating a selection of the individual, said client being further operable for communicating the individual'"'"'s request to obtain payment on said bail bond insurance policy to post as bail for the individual, at least said password to access said information for said bail bond insurance policy, and circumstances of an arrest of the individual; and

a server programmed to be operable for receiving from said client said request to obtain a bail bond insurance policy and personal information about the individual where the server processes said personal information, generates insurance rate information at least in part based on said personal information, and communicates said insurance rate information to said client, said server being further operable for receiving from said client a selection of the individual and for generating a bail bond insurance policy at least in part based on said selection with the individual as the holder of the bail bond insurance policy, said server being further operable for receiving said request to obtain payment on said bail bond insurance policy, said password and said circumstances, said server being further operable for releasing said payment.

9. The system as recited in claim 8, in which said client is further operable to obtain contact information for the individual, and communicate said contact information to said server where said server is further operable to receive said contact information.

10. The system as recited in claim 8, in which said server is further operable to store information for said generated bail bond insurance policy in a customer database with at least password protection.

11. The system as recited in claim 8, in which said personal information at least comprises the individual'"'"'s age, location and criminal history.

12. The system as recited in claim 8, in which said insurance rate information is displayed as a plurality of insurance rates for a plurality of term lengths.

13. The system as recited in claim 8, in which said client is further operable to communicate an individual'"'"'s request to obtain an additional insurance policy to said server where said server is further operable to receive said request.

14. A non-transitory program storage device readable by a machine tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform a method for obtaining insurance in a client/server environment, comprising:

computer code for establishing a connection with the server for the purpose of obtaining at least one insurance policy;

computer code for communicating to the server an individual'"'"'s request to obtain a bail bond insurance policy;
