Social security denial - a journal of assistance

The Social Security system is in place to help us through difficult times. Unfortunately, there are some instances in which the system makes our lives even more difficult than they need to be. The day I received the denial letter for my claim, I wasn't sure what I was going to do. After talking with a few friends, I contacted a lawyer. That was the best decision I had ever made. Even with the professional assistance, getting the denial overturned and getting the money that I was owed took several months. I have kept a clear journal of my experience and loaded it with information that can help others get through what can be an impossible time.

How To Locate A Surety Bail Bonding Agency

Alexis Garcia

When you find out that a loved one has been put in jail, you may feel very stressed out. It's understandable to be confused and worried about what happens next. In most cases, a surety bail bond is a low investment option to get a loved one out of jail. However, you might be wondering how to locate a bail bonding agency in your area. Read on for some guidance.

Do some internet research. You may feel that you don't have much time to act. While it can be difficult to cope with the thought that a loved one is in jail, you should also take care to protect yourself by doing the right thing to get them released. Check several bail bonding agencies online and read the reviews. You can quickly find bail bonds agencies in your area that are friendly and do the job for those in need. If you have friends or relatives that have used bail bonding agencies, ask them for some recommendations.

The surety bail bonding agency should be licensed. Each state oversees bail bonding agencies by issuing licenses to those who qualify. Ask about the license and verify it by checking with your state licensing website. You can also check with your city hall, the Better Business Bureau, and the chamber of commerce.

Give them a call and ask some questions. Once you know where your loved one is being held, the charges, and the amount of bail your loved one owes, call a local surety bail bonding agency. The closer they are located to the jail or courthouse, the better. Here is what to ask the bail agents when you call:

  • How much does the bail bond cost?
  • What percentage of the full bail amount is your fee?
  • What forms of payment do you accept?
  • Is collateral required to obtain the bail bond?
  • Can a loved one be released on the weekend or after business hours?
  • How long have you been in business?

What to do Next

You can choose a surety bail bonding agency that has a convenient location. In many cases, all agencies in each area will charge the same premium fees (percentage of the full bail amount). It's also important that you go with a bail agency that that makes you feel confident. Get started and find the best agency to get your loved one out of jail as soon as you can.
