If your phone just rang from the Ottawa County Jail in West Olive, take a breath - you don't have to figure this out by yourself. My name is Justin Butler, and my dad Gene and I have run Bail My Tail as a family since 1982. We've helped Ottawa County families from the lakeshore to Grand Haven, and we know the road a case travels here: booking at the Corrections Division on Fillmore Street, then arraignment in the 58th District Court, where a judge sets bond. For misdemeanors the matter stays in the 58th; for felonies, a preliminary examination follows, and if the judge finds probable cause the case is bound over to the 20th Judicial Circuit Court in Grand Haven, where bond may be revisited. A judge may grant personal recognizance with no money down, or set a cash bond, a 10% bond, or a surety bond posted through a licensed agent like us. The amount turns on the charge, flight risk, history, and public safety - and we'll help you make sense of all of it. Our premium is the state-regulated 10%, identical to what every licensed Michigan agent charges, and we answer 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When you're ready to bring your loved one home, call Bail My Tail: statewide toll-free at 877-869-8245 or in Detroit at 313-345-9255.
