In the state of Florida not all defendants are eligible to be granted bail. Defendants in certain capital crimes (and in some cases, non-capital crimes) such as murder, statutory rape and others, are in most cases ineligible for bail. One reason for this may be that Florida does not allow bounty hunters.
In Florida, bail bondsmen can only post bail in counties they are registered in. When you email them, you should ask if they are registered in the county where the defendant is, otherwise, they may charge you a substantial amount extra for them to transfer the bond to an agent in the proper county.
The Florida Department of Financial Services regulates and licenses bail agents in the state of Florida.

In order to undertake bail in Florida, a person must have a license [AR 4-221.001, FS 648.26, 648.30]. Florida law specifies two kinds of bail bond agent:
1) a limited surety agent, defined as a person appointed by an insurer to execute bail bonds [FS 648.25(5)],
2) a professional bail bond agent, defined as a person who pledges US currency as security for a bail bond [FS 648.25(7)].
