Parrish's background includes criminal and DWI defense as well as divorce and family law. Though he remains involved in these areas of practice as part of the firm's activities, his focus is primarily on personal injury.

The personal injury practice allows Parrish and Collins & Collins, P.C. to truly serve those in need often in pretty dire circumstances due to their injuries and all of the issues that arise from them.

Legal Answers
8 Questions Answered
Q. Do I need to file probate in New Mexico where my husband died in an accident without a will?
A: Under the New Mexico Wrongful Death Act, a Petition for the Appointment of Personal Representative would need to be filed. This would typically be in the county where your husband resided. Once the Order of Appointment is issued by the judge, the personal representative can proceed with the lawsuit.
Q. My daughter is scheduled for a probation revocation, do i need to find her an attorney or will her public defender do?
A: Juveniles are required to have an attorney in juvenile criminal court. The public defender will assist her unless you have hired a private attorney. Revocation of probation is pretty serious so it is advisable to meet with your attorney in advance so the attorney is fully prepared for the hearing.
Q. How do I amend my divorce decree concerning allowing me to move my children out of the state of new mexico
A: In the absence of agreement by the parties, relocating to another state with children is no simple task. It will require a hearing at a minimum. Depending upon the situation, it may require the appointment of an expert psychologist. It can be a lengthy process and should be started early, well before any anticipated move. Finally, it is entirely possible that the court would refuse the request/motion to relocate so this is something that should be anticipated just in case.
