Hello fellow Yelpers,
I'm writing this to those who are hopeful, yet find themselves in a hopeless situation, like I did recently.
From my personal experience, I encourage you to at least make a phone call to give Bad Boys Bail a chance in assisting you bring an incarcerated loved one home, whether they are guilty or innocent and whether their bail is set low or high.
In my specific case, I would say the biggest challenge I faced was that the bail to get my delinquent other half out of jail was understandably set high. Although it didn't stop me from taking some kind of action, that particular factor made me nervous to call around because I'm human and I feared being rejected. And I WAS turned away a couple of times. Not only would they not work with me because of the seriousness of the crime, but mainly because I didn't have enough money upfront that would make it worth their while. Don't get me wrong, I do acknowledge that this is a business involving many risky factors and that most people, including myself, don't work for free. I would say that they're affordable and will work with you in a way that is compromising.
I called and, I didn't know it then, but I'm now forever grateful that Sean Thomas picked up. Working with Sean was an extraordinary experience in a very good way. First, I was asked about the details pertaining to my situation and I wasn't judged at all. Instead I encountered patience, compassion, and a sympathetic understanding from Sean. He's all business, but he also cares. To me, honestly, his urgency makes it all the better because I don't like people that beat around the bush only to tell you they can't help after all. Basically, he won't waste your time. Ultimately, he put the ball in my court by quickly briefing me on how he, and his team, could help me and let me know what effort I had to put in as my part in order to make it happen.
If you're reading this, it's because you needed to reassure yourself that Bad Boys Bail is an adequate option for you and your circumstances. I'm here because I was very impressed throughout the entire process and I wanted to let it be known that they ARE the right option.
I would like to end this by thanking everyone, especially Sean, at Bad Boys Bail who contributed time to help with my case.
(Note: I'm not even in San Diego, I'm in Los Angeles, where they also have an office, but as you can see location was not an issue.)
