Hearing that a family member is being held at the Iosco County Jail in Tawas City is unsettling, and it's hard to know where to turn first. Turn to us. Bail My Tail is a family-run agency Gene Butler founded in 1982 and now operates with his son Justin, and helping frightened Michigan families is the work we've done for decades. The Iosco County Jail is at 428 West Lake Street, Tawas City, MI 48763, and it's open 24 hours a day. Our toll-free line never closes either; call 877-869-8245 at any hour and a real Butler-family agent will answer. We'll confirm the bond amount the court has set, explain exactly what to expect, and post the bond so your loved one can get home. Michigan keeps surety bonds at a 10% premium of the full bail, so you pay only that fraction up front, and we post bonds statewide. We accept cash, all major credit cards, debit, and bank transfer, and qualifying families can arrange a payment plan. After we post the bond, release from the Iosco County Jail generally takes about 2 to 8 hours, depending on how busy the jail is. You don't have to face this night alone. Call Bail My Tail and let our family help bring yours back together.
