A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT

I take my position as MCOBS' President very seriously. My primary mission in assuming this position is to strive towards making MCOBS a premier representative within the national bail industry.

My primary goals as President include:

  • Forging a strong partnership with our regulating agency: the Mississippi Insurance Department.

  • Representing all bail agents in Mississippi with the purpose of ensuring that the industry thrives in the future.

  • Providing the foremost pre-licensing and continuing education courses for bail agents in the state of Mississippi.
