Keweenaw County Bail Bonds

Few places in Michigan feel as far from home as Keweenaw County when someone you love has just been arrested, and that distance can make a scary night feel even lonelier. We're Bail My Tail. Gene Butler founded this family agency in 1982, and he and his son Justin still treat every call like it's our own family. In Keweenaw County, the least-populous county in the state, the Sheriff's Office handles booking, but the county runs only a short-term 72-hour lockup rather than a full jail. If your loved one is held longer than that, they're transferred to the Houghton County Corrections Facility in Houghton. The arraignment, where a judge or magistrate sets bond, takes place in the 97th District Court, which serves Baraga, Houghton, and Keweenaw counties; felony cases where probable cause is found are bound over to the 12th Circuit Court for those same three counties. Wherever they're being held, we post surety bonds statewide across Michigan, so we can reach the Keweenaw and Houghton alike. You pay the state-regulated 10% premium, and we handle the paperwork from start to finish. We're here 24 hours a day, every day. Call us toll-free at 877-869-8245 and we'll start working to bring your family member home.
