Post a pic or a link to a pic if you can to help us understand the problem.
The unfortunate thing about noobie repairs is often the wrong glues are used. Example: If the repairer used epoxy on the the guitar, it may be unrepairable. But if the repair was done with a moisture or heat sensitive glue (white, yellow, hide glues), then a hot palette knife will generally remove a bridge from a flat top guitar. But you have to be very careful not to dig into the top of the guitar.
