MORE ABOUT PARKER CENTER FOR FAMILY BUSINESS

THE PARKER CENTER STORY AND VISION

Jim Parker served many closely held and family-operated enterprises that make up the bedrock of their communities in New Mexico. During his long career as a business lawyer, he became intimately aware of the unique challenges and opportunities for families who operate a business. Jim Parker’s passion and dedication to his clients and their impact on New Mexico led to the development of Parker Center.
