About Alexander C.
Alexander C. Safarian received his legal training at Southwestern University School of Law. He completed the curriculum that led him into practice in California and later added a real estate broker certification from the California Department of Real Estate. The combination of a law degree and the broker credential shapes much of how he approaches matters that touch both legal and transactional issues.
Safarian moved into practice roles that combined supervision and management early in his career. In 2018 he served as a supervising lawyer at Dennis P. Block & Associates, APC, a role that involved oversight of casework and mentoring junior attorneys. Two years later he became managing partner at BLOCK LLP, a post he has held since 2020. The change reflected a shift from day-to-day supervision to running firm operations and setting strategic direction.
At BLOCK LLP he oversees a range of firm matters. His background as a certified broker gives him a practical perspective on deals and property-related disputes. He has been involved in preparing transactional documents, advising clients on contractual obligations, and coordinating between brokers, lenders, and legal teams. Colleagues describe him as methodical in handling complex files and attentive to the interplay between regulatory and commercial concerns.
Safarian's practice is rooted in California law. He is licensed to practice in the state and has developed experience that touches both litigation preparedness and transactional execution. He handles matters that require navigation of state regulatory frameworks and industry practice standards. Those who work with him see an attorney comfortable in negotiations and in translating technical real estate issues into practical options for clients.
Within the office he balances administrative duties with client-facing work. As managing partner he sets policies, supervises case staffing, and maintains relationships with outside service providers. He continues to take direct responsibility for select matters, particularly those that involve brokerage issues or complex contracts. His broker certification remains an active part of how he advises on property and transaction questions.
Outside firm leadership responsibilities, Safarian has maintained a steady presence in local professional circles. He has stayed engaged with peers and regulators, keeping current on developments that affect transactional practice and licensing. He operates from BLOCK LLP’s offices and continues to build the firm’s capabilities.
He currently concentrates his practice on real estate transactions, brokerage-related legal matters, and business-oriented legal work in California.
