Before you hire
How to plan event security: how many guards you need by crowd size and risk, what event security costs per hour, a city-by-city guide to permit and security requirements in the biggest US metros, and a planning checklist.
Read the event security buyer's guidePrivate security in Nevada is licensed at the state level by the State of Nevada Private Investigators Licensing Board. A legitimate company operating in Carson City holds a Private Patrol Officer licence — the business-level licence for a company furnishing watchmen, guards, patrol officers or bodyguards to others, which means it has cleared Nevada PILB's ownership, background-check and insurance requirements. Ask for that license number in writing and verify it yourself — a certificate on the wall tells you nothing about current standing, since a license can be suspended or revoked.
Hiring an unlicensed company is a risk you carry. In Nevada, operating without a license is misdemeanor; gross misdemeanor on repeat (NRS 648.210; NRS 648.220). A person who violates any of NRS 648.060 to 648.203, inclusive, is guilty of a misdemeanor for the first violation and a gross misdemeanor for the second and subsequent violations. Separately, under NRS 648.220 the Board may seek an injunction without proof of actual damage, and the court may impose a civil penalty of up to $10,000 for a violation of the licence-required section. An injunction does not preclude criminal prosecution.
