This review is from: The Professional Bondsman: How to Start and Operate Your Own Bail Bond Agency (Paperback)
"The Professional Bondsman - How To Start and Operate Your Own Bail Bond Agency, 2nd Edition" is the first and only book on the market that details the ins and outs of this very profitable and very secretive business. This book provides the reader with real life situations encountered in the business. The reader will learn how to write a bond, when to write a bond, now to deal with indemnitors, bail jumpers, the courts, how to file motions and most importantly, how to operate and stay in business. Also included, you will find a glossary of terms, forms and documents used in the business as well as actual case studies. This book is used as a training manual by many insurance agencies across the country. It's easy to read and serves as a great reference for the novice as well as veteran bondsmen with many years in the business. Whether you aspire to become a bail bondsman, already in the business or just want to know what to do if a friend or family member lands in jail, this book will provide you with the most current information that can be used immediately.

Not worth it,
By "thelenkster" (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Professional Bondsman: How to Start and Operate Your Own Bail Bond Agency (Paperback)
My mother always told me not to say a word if I didn't have anything nice to say. I was going to take that advice but felt compelled to speak up when I saw all the rave reviews appearing.This book was very disappointing and painful to read for a number of reasons: 1) The font size was too small; 2) It was poorly written; 3) It lacked logical structure. My eyes hurt from straining to read the text. I believe it was an Arial font size 8. It is my belief that this approach was a misguided intent to save paper (and printing expenses) at the cost of your eyes. I'm no English major but this book was written as if some country farmer had taken dictation word-for-word -- complete with run-on sentences, grammatical errors, and misused clichés. My favorite was the use of "spending your wheels" instead of "spinning your wheels." I am confident that the author has the functional knowledge to be a bail bondsman. However, I question his ability to clearly and coherently convey that knowledge to the written form of the English language. I recommend that the author contract to have future editions proofread. Reading the other reviews...left me with one question: Did we read the same book?

Very informative,
By "zzebra66" (CT, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Professional Bondsman: How to Start and Operate Your Own Bail Bond Agency (Paperback)
Being new in the business (secretary of a bondsman), I wanted examples and info on bail bonding. I found the book very informative. The writer got the point across and briefed me on the business, and that is what I needed. It actually was the only book available on this subject! (thanks Mr. Wills) I am glad I discovered this book and am very happy with the information I received.
