PI LICENSING: Michigan

[Lisa Mahoney]

Hello all, I have wanted to be a P.I. for a long time, but I never new MI had so many rules. So, if I have read all of this right, I will have to have a degree in something law related to get my own P.I. License. But, if I work under a Law Firm or Court, I would not need to be licensed. What about a Prosecuting Office?
Thank-You for all and any help!

I will have to have a degree in something law related to get my own P.I. License.

You can get your own PI license by working for another licensed PI agency for a few years to earn your hours.

Or, you can start your own agency without the earned hours by getting an employee with a PI License to be responsible for your cases.

But, if I work under a Law Firm or Court, I would not need to be licensed. What about a Prosecuting Office?

Law office, okay.
Court investigator, okay.
Prosecuting office investigator, okay.
Any of the eight types of firms or companies listed at the top.
Or, any private company that falls into Number 2 above.
