What must a public adjuster do if they change their address or name?

A public adjuster is required to notify the Missouri Department of Insurance if they change their address or name. This requirement ensures that the department maintains accurate and up-to-date records of licensed professionals, which is essential for regulatory compliance and consumer protection. Properly notifying the department facilitates continued communication and ensures that the public adjuster's license remains valid and active.

While it may also be good practice for a public adjuster to inform their clients and update professional profiles, these actions do not fulfill the legal obligation set by the state’s regulatory framework. The primary focus is on maintaining the integrity of the licensing system, which underscores the importance of informing the Missouri Department of Insurance about changes.
