Lloyd Swartz, left, a former district attorney, and Rob Winn, a member of the Glens Falls Police Department for over two decades, run North Country Bail Bonds\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

BY ANDREA PALMER<\/p>\n

Rob Winn and Lloyd Swartz have joined forces to
\ncreate North Country Bail Bonds, with two locations
\nin Granville and Hudson Falls.<\/p>\n

The two bring a combined 40 years of experience
\nto the table.
\n“I was the district attorney of Washington
\nCounty for 16 years,” said Winn, “and Lloyd was
\na high-ranking member of the Glens Falls Police
\nDepartment for over two decades. We have a broad
\nknowledge base of the bail bonds business because
\nof our close involvement with the criminal justice
\nsystem over the years.”<\/p>\n

“After I was done with my work as D.A., I had
\ndone some criminal defense work. Through both of
\nthose avenues, I saw a need for bail bond agencies in the Washington County area,” Winn said.
\n“Nobody
\nhad a regional bail bonds agency in this area. I knew
\nSwartz and was familiar with his work. I knew he
\nhad a lot of contacts in Warren County, as well as
\nEssex County where he’s from. Lloyd and I are the
\nfirst bail bond agents in Washington County since
\nabout 30 years ago.”<\/p>\n

Swartz served the city of Glens Falls as a police
\nofficer for 23 years, retiring as a captain in 2011. He
\nis also a private investigator.<\/p>\n

“Both of us have a lot of knowledge of the criminal
\njustice system, specifically from the police and
\nprosecution side. We have hands-on experience
\nwith the bail bond process and how it integrates
\nwith the entire arrest and release process.,” Swartz said.<\/p>\n

Winn was licensed by the state as a bail bondsman
\nin 2013, with Swartz following closely behind
\nin 2014. Winn is also licensed in Vermont.<\/p>\n

The partnership set up their official LLC business
\nstatus for North Country Bail Bonds earlier in
\n2015. Business has grown steadily, with a referral
\nsystem based largely upon word-of-mouth.
\n“A lot of this process relies heavily upon your
\nknowledge of how the court system works, your access
\nto jails, judges and court systems,” said Swartz.
\n“Having experience from being in the process for
\ndecades makes our approach to this line of work
\nvery efficient.”<\/p>\n

In addition to their experience within the
\ncriminal justice system, the pair cites their 24\/7 accessibility
\nas one of the agency’s strengths. Between
\nthe two of them, someone is always available. The
\nagency has strategically placed itself in two locations,
\nwith Winn occupying a presence in Granville
\nand Swartz occupying Hudson Falls. This allows for
\na streamlined process of communication covering
\na large service area.<\/p>\n

“Working together as a team, we have a lot of
\navailability, and the ability to get to a lot of places
\nvery quickly,” Swartz said.
\n“Our clients need to have coverage 24\/7, regardless
\nof what either of us have going on with
\nfamily, health or our other bond cases. Working in
\na partnership allows us to give our clients the 24\/7
\ncoverage they need,” Winn noted.<\/p>\n

Bail bonds have been secured in as little as an
\nhour and a half, with longer turnaround times usually
\nbeing a result of the availability of the court,
\nwaiting on a judge’s decision or waiting for family
\nto come retrieve a client.<\/p>\n

Most referrals come from visitors going to see
\nfriends and relatives in jail. Business cards and
\nadvertisements can be found in the jail facilities.
\nInternet web searches and referrals from attorneys
\nof clients also generate a significant amount of
\nbusiness.<\/p>\n

Winn said the long-term objective “is to develop
\na regional bail bonds agency. We proudly cover
\nWarren, Washington, Saratoga, Essex and Clinton
\ncounties. We’re taking a business that did not exist
\nin this area before, and creating it from the ground
\nup. We are building something from absolutely
\nnothing, and now we have something concrete to
\nshow, something we built from scratch.”<\/p>\n

They can be reached at 788-2953 or 361-1039. The
\nwebsite is www.northcountrybailbonds.com.<\/p>\n
