Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

I tried this on another site and was asked to pay.

My spouse is incarcerated with Bail 1500. or Bond 3000. I am an elderly retiree on social security and a small city pension. I don't have any money.

I have a friend who has offered to give me 300.00 for a bail bondsman. I need to know what they can charge me (legally). The only one who called me back asked for 40%, which seems exorbitant to me.
