Jurisdictional, Licensing, and Regulation Concerns
WARNING!!! Missouri does not require a state license for Private
Investigators. It
is important to find an company that you can trust. There is no licensing required
on the state level. Kansas City, St Louis, Joplin, St Joseph and
Springfield do require licensing for private investigators.
On August 28, 2007 a bill was signed into law in Missouri requiring the
licensing of private investigators statewide. The law now requires a
written exam, with an exclusion for those with current POST (Peace
Officers
Standards and Training) certification. The law also requires background
checks, fingerprinting, and submission of documentation and photograph,
$250,000 general liability insurance. According to the professional
licensing board website at this link,
http://pr.mo.gov/pi.asp
. While the law is in effect, the state's website
says it has not yet appointed the licensing board members and does not
anticipate doing so until the legislative session of 2008. It also
indicates that it will not begin enforcing the new licensing
requirement
until January 2009.
Missouri Revised Statutes,
Section 84.340
August 28, 2000
Board of police - power to regulate private detectives (St. Louis):
The police commissioner
of the said cities shall have power to regulate and license all private
watchmen, private detectives and private policemen, serving or acting
as such in said cities, and no person shall act as such private watchman,
private detective or private policeman in said cities without first
having obtained the written license of the president or acting president
of said police commissioners of the said cities, under pain of being
guilty of a misdemeanor.
(1974) Held constitutional
as not being an unlawful delegation of legislative power nor as to being
discriminatory in that police officers of the city are not required
to be licensed or pay fee when acting as a watchman.
ABC Security Service Inc.
v. Miller (Mo.), 514 S.W.2d 521.
Private investigators should
contact their local city hall and/or county clerk's office and local
law enforcement agencies for any possible licensing/permit regulations. We have been
around since 1967. We have extremely professional Private
Investigators
working for us who have handled some very high profile cases, and we
also have
a respectable extensive client list. Only a handful of Private
Investigators in the nation can make these kind of statements. If you ever need a private investigator in Missouri, make sure you remember to look to us.
