county-jail · 11045 M-32 West, Atlanta, MI 49709
When a loved one is arrested in Montmorency County, the quiet of a small town can suddenly feel overwhelming, and you just want them home. We're Bail My Tail, the Butler family's bail-bonds agency, run by Gene Butler since 1982 and now with his son Justin, and we're here to carry this with you. If your case runs through the Montmorency County Sheriff's Department at 11045 M-32 West in Atlanta, we'll guide you through every step in plain, calm language. We explain how a surety bond works, gather the details we need, and handle the posting so you're not left to face the process alone. We write bonds throughout Michigan, and the premium is set by the state at 10 percent of the bond amount, which means your cost is regulated and clear from your very first call to us. Atlanta and the surrounding Montmorency County are exactly the kind of close community where people stand by one another, and we treat your family the same way. The Sheriff's Department is reachable around the clock, and our phones never close either, so no matter when the arrest happened, we're ready to help. Once the bond is posted, release usually follows in about 2 to 8 hours, depending on jail volume. We'll keep you in the loop every step of the way. Call us 24/7 at 877-869-8245, or reach our Flint office at 810-234-5776, and let's get your loved one home.
