Good To Know
The Correctional Complex opened in 2019, replacing the older parish jail. It serves all of Lafourche Parish, from Thibodaux down through the bayou communities to Golden Meadow and Port Fourchon. Call us and we will help you confirm where your loved one is being held.
How The Process Works
Confirm the person is in custody using the official Lafourche Parish Sheriff's Office inmate roster (linked from our inmate lookup hub). Search by full legal name; add date of birth to narrow it. If you do not see them yet, call us anyway — booking can lag behind the arrest.
Call (985) 346-8337 with the name, date of birth, and bond amount if it has been set. If you do not have all of it, call anyway — we help you find it.
A licensed bondsman confirms where the person is held and the bond amount, then explains the premium and any fees up front.
We complete the application and collect the premium. Most of this can be handled by phone and electronically, so you do not have to wait at the jail.
We post the bond at the Correctional Complex and the jail begins release processing.
How Long It Takes
Booking has to finish before any bond can be posted — that usually runs 2 to 6 hours depending on how busy the jail is. Once bond is set and posted, release processing typically takes another 1 to 4 hours.
Releases happen at any hour of the day. One thing families do not expect: overnight is usually slower, not faster. The booking desk runs on reduced staff through the night, so a late-night release can take longer than a midday one even when the jail seems quieter.
A Family Working To Serve Your Family
We believe people can change, and that everyone deserves a second chance. Three generations of our family have done this work in South Louisiana, and we have sat where you are sitting. An arrest is one chapter — it is not the whole story.
Whether it is a first offense, a DWI, or something more serious, the important thing right now is knowing who to call. We treat every family with respect, keep your information confidential, and work around the clock to bring your loved one home. That is what Helping Families in Crisis means to us.
