Insurance requirements in Missouri
Missouri is an at-fault (tort) state: every driver must carry liability insurance, and Missouri also requires uninsured-motorist coverage — which matters because not everyone on the road is insured. Missouri sits in a hail- and tornado-prone corridor, so wind/hail protection and your roof's condition weigh heavily for homeowners and farm owners. As an independent agency we shop multiple carriers to fit Missouri's rules and weather to your budget. Verify current state minimums with the Missouri Department of Commerce & Insurance.
