OUR ATLANTA STAFF
Daniel the “Mr. Bonds” Co-Owner
Daniel, our company visionary, brings passion and dedication to helping others find their second chance. He uses the lessons and knowledge he has acquired through personal experience to provide the best possible service in a friendly and nonjudgmental way.
As Tony Montana in his favorite movie “Scarface,” says, “I got ears, ya know. I hear things.” In Daniel’s case, he’s listening to music on his iPhone, which he admits he can’t live without, when he’s not lending a kind and listening ear to clients and attorneys.
Believing that “Every day above ground is a good day,” (also courtesy of Tony Montana), Daniel makes the most of his time outside of work having fun with a fantastic group of friends and family, spending time with his wife and kids, traveling, rooting on the Miami Heat and always looking out for his next great pair of shoes.
Ryan the “Scrupulous” Co-Owner
Ryan is a co-owner at A 2nd Chance. He uses the experience and wisdom he has acquired from years of seeing loved ones and friends go through the bail bonding process, to help those in need. His favorite part of working in the bail bonding business is seeing the satisfaction on family members’ faces when he provides their loved ones with A 2nd Chance. When not at work, Ryan and his friends travel the country to attend live music events. The Dave Matthews Band is on the top of his favorites list. On his free time, Ryan enjoys watching his favorite movie, “The Shawshank Redemption” and beating others in ping-pong matches (he has a 97 percent winning average).
Shakeelah the “The Fearless Sweetheart” Office Supervisor
As the Office Supervisor for the Fulton office, Shakeelah enjoys all aspects of her job. “You wouldn’t believe the joy I get from educating and helping people in their time of need,” she says. Shakeelah considers herself to be undaunted but is also a sweetheart. Her favorite movie is “U.S. Marshals” and she could not survive without food. (Most of us agree with her!) She loves listening to Lauryn Hill and Fantasia and cheers for the Falcons. When she’s not running the show here, Shakeelah enjoys vacationing with her family and reading.
Michelle the “The Loyal Bondsman”
Michelle roots for the home team, Atlanta Falcons, just as she roots for her clients find their 2nd Chance. A lover of food and Mary J. Blige, Michelle is a passionate and loyal person who appreciates the ability to inform and educate people as they “deal with the system.” She enjoys working with family members to get their loved ones back home, no matter the circumstances. Family is important to Michelle. She loves spending time with her own family as well as volunteering in the community. Like Shakeelah, Michelle’s favorite movie is “U.S. Marshals.” (Sounds like we know what movie to pop in for staff movie night!)
Cherre the “Chocolate Bunny” Bondsman
Cherre is an ambitious and hard working bondsman. When she’s not giving clients a second chance, shes living her best life traveling the country and building her brand. She loves watching reruns of her favorite movies, “Baby Boy” and “Friday.” Cherre cannot live without her dog, Gucci, and her favorite musical artist, Cardi B. Cherre is a Georgia peach, born and raised in Downtown Atlanta, where she proudly represents the Atlanta Falcons. Be warned – the one thing Cherre says you can’t tell by looking at her is how crazy she is!
Tawndalay the “Tenacious” Administrator
(Who can’t live without her mirror and whose age is a mystery)
Tawndalay is the Administrator for our Fulton location. She loves to listen to Anthony Hamilton, while relaxing or studying the latest real estate trends. She is a natural philanthropist, and in her spare time she also enjoys shopping for home decor, traveling, cleaning, and eating sushi or avocado. She is a fan of multiple football players, and always roots for the opposing team when tailgating. Her favorite movies include; “Cornbread Earl and Me,” “Lean on Me,” “Lady Sings the Blues,” and “Imitation of Life.” Tawndalay joined the A 2nd Chance family, as it enables her to effectively utilize multiple, transferable employment and educational skills she’s acquired.

RECENT REVIEWS
Lynda & Jesse saved me after an incredibly stressful day. I drove 3 hours to get some paperwork notarized and upon my arrival in Atlanta the notary that was supposed to meet me seemingly bailed and didn't answer her phone. I called around to see if anyone would possibly be able to help on last minutes notice on a holiday of all times. Lynda and Jesse were not only incredibly kind to assist us, Lynda even stayed past her intended hours, but they made a very painful and stressful situation just a little bit easier to deal with, they were incredibly kind and professional and the location is beautiful and clean. I highly suggest them and am forever grateful for the kindness.read more

Ryan went above and beyond to resolve a situation pertaining to Linda who works there. She is the rudest person that I have ever encountered especially considering the fact she's supposed to providing customer service. That low life literally mocked me and continuously hung up on me which I will not remove from my review as everyone should know not to deal with her. However the owners and general managers of the company itself are absolutely extraordinary both in customer service and resolving issues. Thank you so much Ryan for all your help. Hopefully you all remove the woman that works there so she no longer poorly represents your company. I am still absolutely amazed that the GM reached out to me on his personal cell phone in order for us to all have a fast and quick resolution in regard to a friends older bond I had consigned. Thank you once again! read more

If anybody else is in trouble and needs a hand to pick them up out off that hole, Jesse and 2nd Chance Bail Bonds are the people to go see!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! I could not have asked for better treatment. I have never been through this experience before so I was clueless as to what to expect. They walked me through every step I needed to do, and what to expect. They communicated constantly with my friends and family through every step of the process, which brought such comfort to them. The individual attention and compassion for my situation far exceeded my expectation.read more

It is common for people to not know what to expect regarding bail bonds until they or a loved one is arrested.

I would absolutely recommend that anybody needing to use a Bonding Company call A 2nd Chance first. Jesse was extremely knowledgeable, very understanding and compassionate, and went out of his way to help when I needed to bond my husband out of jail. There was absolutely no judgement. We were never talked down to or treated as if we were 2nd class because we were dealing with this situation. I hope that I never have to see him again but if I ever have to use a Bonding Company he is definitely the first person I will call.read more

The young lady that assisted us last night was really friendly and pleasant. But once we paid, we were told to go and wait at the jail visitor area & that she had to go to the Marietta jail for some reason and then that she would meet us there. We waited over an hr and a half before she showed up at the visitor center. She handed off her paperwork and tried to leave without giving us an update, we literally had to chase her outside to see what the next step was and we were told that she was in processing and that she would be released shortly. We continued to wait an additional 3HRS! before she was actually released. Not sure what the hold up was but someone dropped the ball and the communication was not there at all.read more

I wish I could give them negative stars !! Don’t believe anything you read on their website !! They do not care and will not help you if you dont own a home that’s a lie !! My wife was arrested on a charge we didn’t know she even had and when I called these clowns and explained my situation they said hey would help me. You see I’m a carpenter and I get paid as a 1099 so I told them all I had for proof of income was my check they said “ no problem come on in. I explained to them that was all the proof I had and that I would bring it to them but I would have to cash it to post bail for my wife. I also told them we have a 20 month old daughter and no family that lives here to help us with this. They said they understood and I should come down and they would help me, BUUUT when I got there this smug little punk of a bondsman Jesse ( name like the girl he is) was immediately giving me the sense that they wouldn’t be helping me. I explained the situation he took all my info I filled out his paperwork and then said I was running to the bank to cash the check so I could pay their fee. When I returned I came in happy that I was going to get my wife out ( first time offender of anything) and he said oh my boss said he won’t do it when I asked why he said he said No I then asked him to please call him and let me please speak to him that I was missing work and if my wife didn’t get out I would not be able to work and provide for my family HE SAID NO. I pleaded with him to help me and I explained that the only proof of income I had was now gone because I had to cash it and now I wouldn’t be able to call another bondsman to help without it he smirked and said I don’t know what to say. I said please who will watch our daughter when I at work he said YOU DO IT ???!! How CAN I MORON I HAVE TO WORK ( although I didn’t call him any names) he then told me to leave his premises and I told him he was a real piece of work to let me do that and tell my wife I had it taken care of and thanks a lot I said I hope it happens to him one day although I doubt he is the kind of man who would ever have a child cause that would involve having a relationship with a woman and most woman do t linked weasels like him!!! SO TALE MY ADVICE DONT USE THEM THST STIRY ABOUT THE OWNER CARING IS A JOKE !! They won’t help you unless you have money and if you have money you don’t need these people !!! People who really care would help a regular working man get his wife out so she can be with her kid and he can work so they would be ok. That start is fake because they don’t try to help anyone get a second chance !!! I hope Jesse reads this thanks a lot my wife is still in jail because I have no proof!!! Please don’t use this company they are some of the predators that don’t help people and he threatened to have me arrested when I got bad SNITCH ?!!! As a bondsman that figures !!! Take my advice and use someone else !!!!! All the reviews that make them seem so amazing and helpful are all fake there were a few other people that were having issues with them too they don’t care about helping anyone get a 2nd chance !!!!!!read more

Until today, I only associated a bonding company with the opportunity to get out of jail. What I didn’t realize is that A Second Chance Bail Bonds is much more than that. I missed my court date and a bench warrant was issued for my arrest. When this happened my bond agent, Ryan S., went above and beyond what I thought his job to be. He advocated for me to get another opportunity to go before the judge without going to jail. Not only was he advocating on his end, but I was working on handling things on my end...thanks to his instruction. Due to the specifics of my case, I was able to walk into court today, having previously worked out a plan with Ryan S. and the Assistant Solicitor General, and leave with my case dropped and the warrant dismissed. I highly recommend that if you should miss a court date and realize you have a bench warrant to not run or think it’s the end of the world.These guys are awesome!read more

Hey everyone this is the best bondsman you will ever get. Let me tell you they are understanding and will help you if they can. Ryan S. helped me with my case I missed court and he sent me to a attorney that might can help...even he was there to basically just listen sometimes I called and would be in a very bad mood thinking I cant handle this it's to much what should I do type worry he would tell me like a father to calm down and get this stuff done and always keep him informed in everything I was doing....he made me feel as if I had help that i had support and it helped out alot and i would like to tell you Mr. Ryan S. Thank you so much for answering all my calls and understanding my situation you've helped me though this more then you think again thank you...thank you 2nd chances bondsman company now that my case is dismissed and it's over I can move on with my life ....stay the wonderful people you are...thank you!!!!read more

How can I begin to tell the world how very pleased my family and I are with A 2nd Chance Bail Bondsman??? First and foremost, I'd never had to go through anything like this before. My daughter moved to the Georgia area from Illinois and unexpectedly ended up in something she wasn't aware of going on and I didn't know the first thing to do until I spoke with Brandon at A 2nd Chance after searching online for help. Brandon and his team are truly awesome. These guys worked with me although my daughter had no long term ties to the area, I felt like I'd been knowing them personally for years. They were very nice and understanding and made me feel secure about the entire situation, although their job was to only assist with getting my daughter released from the local jail, they made me feel like everything was going to be alright and the results were just that and I can not thank them enough. They were very responsive and answered all of my questions and concerns patiently, always answered my calls and emails, paperwork was very easy to understand, no hidden or challenging terminology or fees, everything was very professional. They'd speak to you as if they are a member of your own family and that made me feel very secure. I highly recommend A 2nd Chance Bail Bondsman to anyone experiencing issues and needing assistance from a bail Bondsman company, these guys should be at the top of your list. My apologies for the lengthy review but I can actually go on and on about my experience. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!read more

Not my recommendation for many reasons. Their business licenses were all expired and most of them are on drugs and pretty open about it. Very inappropriate place to be if you value yourself. I worked there for a little while and the other woman who worked with me whom was also a minority was sure to tell me that she was looking out for my best interest because the rest of the company acts funny because towards women of color. Needless to say, it didn't work out. If you like to waste your time and money with a lot of people on drugs, be my guest.read more
