APPREHENDING BAIL FUGITIVES:
 
The Business of Finding and Taking Bond Forfeiture
Defendants into Custody
 
   
In this last decade, the business of bail enforcement has changed and it continues to change at break-neck speed.  This inherently dangerous but highly lucrative type of assignment captures the imaginations of many people who do not know where to acquire a working knowledge of this industry in which bail fugitive investigators work.  This course is designed to teach and develop basic operating techniques and methodologies while contracting with bail bond agencies to apprehend defendants who have failed to appear for bond secured court dates.  The course of instruction will introduce topics from skip tracing through surveillance methods, legal and ethical aspects as well as closing a bail investigation assignment.

"Scott gave me a copy of his book.  I  was very impressed and even learned some new tricks! I have read other *books* from individuals who *claim* they are *Leaders* in this Biz and have found that they are full of bullshit! Scott's manual is the *Real Thing* for individuals just getting started in this Profession. He cuts through the hype and bullshit and gives you the straight stuff. I would HIGHLY recommend this manual to any individual who is considering this Profession!"

“One word Scott. Excellent. You are giving good sound advice, and it's presented in a way that is easy to read and understand. I've read MANY books on the subject and have found most to be very boring and monotonous. It's very refreshing to finally find someone that is articulate as well as knowledgeable.  I'm going to make it required reading for my agents, and with your permission, I'd like to use it in a school I'm going to be doing for Florida agents. Your perspective on marketing is just great. You explain those aspects in a way that I have been unable to do with my people. And I must say, I learned a couple things myself that I have already implemented as of today.  Thanks Scott.”
