The Truth About Colorado: No License Required for Private Investigators
Did you know that Colorado does not require a private investigator license? In 2021, the state discontinued its licensing program, meaning anyone—regardless of training or experience—can legally operate as a private investigator.
For clients, this creates serious risk. Without licensing, there is:
- ❌ No formal training requirement
- ❌ No ethical or professional standards
- ❌ No oversight or accountability
- ❌ No protection from unqualified individuals
If you're considering hiring a PI in Colorado, you need to be extra cautious.
How to Choose the Right Investigator in an Unlicensed State
Even without state regulation, you can still find highly qualified professionals--if you know what to look for. Ask these key questions:
✅ What Is Your Investigative Background?
At EXCALIBUR Private Investigation, we bring over 37 years of investigative experience, including 24 years with the FBI. Our team is composed of former federal agents, military veterans, and law enforcement professionals.
✅ Are You Licensed in Other States?
Although Colorado doesn’t require licensing, EXCALIBUR is licensed in New Mexico, South Carolina, and soon in Florida—all states with rigorous licensing standards. This demonstrates our commitment to professionalism, even in jurisdictions that don't mandate it.
✅ Can You Provide References or Case Examples?
A trustworthy investigator won’t share sensitive case details, but they should be able to speak to the types of cases they’ve handled, such as:
- Title IX investigations
- Insurance fraud
- Surveillance and counter-surveillance
- Cybercrime and digital forensics
- Suspicious death and criminal defense cases
✅ Do You Carry Insurance?
A professional private investigator should carry liability insurance. This protects both the client and the investigator if legal issues arise.
