James G. Parker Jr. began his insurance career in Los Angeles, CA in 1951. James and his wife Janice wanted to raise their children in a smaller community so they moved their family to Fresno in 1959 where James became a partner in a local insurance agency. After many years in santa barbara insurance agent industry, working on both the insurance carrier side and the agency side, James felt the need to venture out on his own. James and Janice shared the vision to open their own insurance agency, create an opportunity for family and friends to work together and become an active partner in the community. With this in mind, James left the independent agency where he had been a partner for nearly 20 years and with Janice’s support, formed James G Parker Insurance Associates in 1978.

One of the Agency’s strategic acquisitions was Bacome Insurance Agency in 1989. Under the leadership of Gerald Thompson and with the support of his partners, Paul Thompson, LeRoy Berrett and Daniel Todd, Bacome Insurance Agency founded in 1946 had become recognized throughout the valley as one of the industry leaders in Agribusiness. Their strong reputation of integrity, family values and hard work was a natural fit for the two agencies to come together. James G Parker Insurance Associates is currently owned by James G Parker III, Jon Parker, Todd Parker, LeRoy Berrett, Paul Thompson and Daniel Todd. The company is operated under the guidance of the Board of Directors which consists of James G. Parker Jr., Chairman, James G.
