If someone you love was just arrested in Wayne County, the fear is real and the clock feels like it's racing. We're Bail My Tail, a family agency Gene Butler started in 1982 and runs today with his son Justin, and we've walked Detroit families through this more times than we can count. In Wayne County, most folks are booked at the Wayne County Jail in downtown Detroit, while Detroit Police arrests go to the Detroit Detention Center. The judge or magistrate sets the bond at arraignment, usually at the 36th District Court for the City of Detroit. The moment that number comes down, we go to work. Wayne County is Michigan's most populous county, covering Detroit and 33 surrounding communities, and we post bonds at every jail and court inside it. As a state-licensed Michigan surety agency, our premium is the regulated 10% of the bail amount, with no surprises tacked on. Our Detroit office sits right downtown at 633 Beaubien Blvd, so we know these halls and the people who run them. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, because arrests don't keep business hours. Call us anytime at 313-345-9255 in Detroit or toll-free at 877-869-8245, and let's bring your person home.
