Maryland Bail Bonds Blog

Regardless of the weather, Holidays, or any other events Big Boyz Bail Bonds doors are always open. This past Saturday during a record snow fall in Charm city we were called on numerous occasions to find out if we were still open. The answer was and will always be yes. We never close our Baltimore City Bail Bonds office for any reason; even if 20+ inches of snow fall on our city. It's very important for us to keep our reputation of a Bail bonds company that never closes its doors intact.

Our phones were ringing left and right with questions about bail amounts, court dates, and lawyer referrals just like any other day. I guess what I'm trying to say is Saturday was no different from any other day. We treat everyone's questions as if we were dealing with our own family.

Saturday, despite the snow, was still relatively busy for us. We did a few bails including a $15,000 and a $150,000 bail for Baltimore city. The families were so worried about their family member who was locked up but did not know where to start and was unsure she could find any help due to the inclement weather. We let them know we can come to them to do the paperwork and then post the bail for them.

Many people wonder why we have so many trucks riding around on the streets of Baltimore. It's primarily to get where we need to go regardless the weather, and help provide a better service for our clients. This past Saturday was no different for us from any other day. Despite the many inches of snow that fell, and other bail bondsmen closing their doors we stayed open to take care of business, because that is what we do every day.

Rain, sleet, hail, or snow the doors at Big Boyz Bail Bonds will always be open for anyone who has general questions. Whether it's about bail information or someone would like one of our famous shirts or pink and yellow pens (bigboyzpens.com) we will be here.

When one gets arrested in Baltimore County they are eventually transported to the Baltimore County Detention Center located at 720 Bosley Avenue in Towson Maryland. It is here that they will be held in a facility that has a release policy like no other detention center in Maryland.

The Baltimore County Detention Center is the only Detention Center in Maryland that has a cut-off for when they can accept releases for bail bonds. Every day this cut-off is at 8pm. In other words, if a Baltimore County Bail Bondsman does not have the bail posted and the release handed into the detention center by 8pm sharp then the defendant will have to wait until the following morning to be released.

It is important to understand that a bail bondsman can post a bail in Baltimore County 24 hours a day 7 days a week. The only restriction here is in the specific time period the jail is willing to accept the release. For example, if someone comes in to post a bail for Baltimore County at 9pm (after the cut-off) we will have to explain to the family that the bail will be posted immediately but the release will have to wait until the following morning at 8am. This can be a very frustrating fact for a family member or friend who is eager to get somebody released on bail.

In addition to the cut-off, it is one of the few places in Maryland that requires the bail bondsman to hand-deliver the release to the detention center. Fortunately, the court house where we post the bail is only a few blocks away from the Baltimore County Detention Center. But still, this has caused bail bondsmen's fair share of close calls as to whether they get the release handed in on time or not. If a bail bondsman gets the release at 8:01pm they are not going to accept the release.

So when contacting a Baltimore County Bail Bondsman concerning a bail for Baltimore County keep this info in mind if you expect to get your loved one released within the same day.
