Sounds like you will need a Missouri attorney. You can call their Bar Association but I never found a good one that way. I like word of mouth and at the local court house if you know anybody ( like a bailiff ) who sees those cases all the time they know who the GOOD attorneys are cause they see them every day winning and loosing.
Shame they can't have a business giving referrals! But there are web sites where people write comments I would also look at those.
Best bet is to do your homework and learn the laws and what you are involved in - some people represent themselves and do pretty good.
