Determining the appropriate contractor

Hello,

I have a problem with one of my properties where a wall in the bedroom is slightly bowing inward. This is an exterior wall and there is also a window above the bow that has a slight crack in it. I think that moisture might be penetrating through the brick and mortar from the exterior or maybe the window. I suspect this is what is causing the wall to bow. This room also smells kind of mildewy.

I need to have somebody come out, assess the situation, determine root cause / repairs / remediation, and help me figure out a path forward. Though I'm not really sure what type of contractor to even contact about this sort of multifaceted problem. What type of contractor would you recommend?

PS: This property is in St. Louis

PPS: Sorry if this is the wrong forum to ask this question. I searched around for others but couldn't really find anywhere else that seemed to be as appropriate.

Thanks,

-Dave
