SHANE PARKER

Shane Parker is an associate attorney who works out of our Phoenix office in the firm’s Business & Finance practice group. His work focuses on transactional work, providing comprehensive counsel to corporations, small businesses, non-profit organizations, and individuals in matters including drafting and negotiating a wide range of transactional documents for the sales of products, services, assets, and membership interests. He also has experience in the formation of companies and small businesses beginning at the inception phase for clients and investors in the commercial real estate and construction industries.

With a background in journalism – telling stories – as well as psychology, Shane has always been fascinated with interpersonal relationships. As a business lawyer, he relishes the opportunity to become an integral part of people’s lives; often bringing their vision to life from the conceptual phase to the formation and flourishing of individual and company success stories. This in turn leads to long-term relationships where clients remain loyal, and businesses are transferred from one generation to the next. Shane’s past experience in litigation provides him with knowledge on how deals fall apart, which aids him in knowing how to put a deal together.

Outside of work, Shane enjoys staying active through sports and outdoor activities including hiking and mountain biking. He also enjoys playing guitar, piano, and bass. Fluent in Spanish, he also volunteers for organizations using his translation abilities, and he likes to continually travel and experience other cultures.
