A call from the Ingham County Jail on North Cedar Street in Mason can turn an ordinary evening upside down. I understand - my family has spent four decades on the other end of calls just like yours. Gene Butler founded Bail My Tail in 1982, and his son Justin still answers personally, because that's how a family business should treat people in a hard moment. In Ingham County, bond may come from a posted schedule or be set by a magistrate at the first appearance - for Lansing-area cases that's the 54-A District Court at City Hall on West Michigan Avenue, which handles misdemeanors and the initial felony arraignments. The Circuit Court's Pretrial Services Division may prepare a bond report using the Michigan Pretrial Risk Assessment Instrument, and felonies eventually move to the 30th Circuit Court. We've stood beside families through every one of those steps. Whether the bond is personal recognizance, cash, ten-percent, or surety, we'll explain your options in plain language and post quickly so release can confirm to the jail, usually within a few hours. Our fee is the state-regulated 10% premium - the same rate set across Michigan - and we never close; we're here 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Don't sit with the worry alone. Call Bail My Tail now: reach us statewide at 877-869-8245, or in Flint at 810-234-5776.
