About Greg
Greg Hagopian took an indirect path to law. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from the University of California, Los Angeles in 2003 and completed a Juris Doctor at Loyola Law School in 2006. Those years framed his early thinking about public policy, institutions and the role of law in everyday decisions.
He entered the legal profession in the mid-2000s after finishing law school. Early in his career he handled the practical tasks many new attorneys confront: legal research, drafting pleadings and briefs, and advising clients on immediate procedural issues. Over time he added courtroom experience and negotiation work. The record of his specific positions and employers is not part of this profile, but the arc of his professional life follows a steady accumulation of practice skills.
At Loyola, he trained in legal analysis and writing. The curriculum emphasized case law study, statutory interpretation and client-centered problem solving. At UCLA he studied political structures and theory. That combination gives him a background in both the mechanics of law and the larger systems in which rules are applied.
Colleagues describe him as methodical and matter-of-fact in approach. He breaks problems into discrete issues, traces the governing authorities and then explains options to clients in plain language. He adapts advocacy style to the setting. Sometimes that means preparing to argue in court. At other times it means negotiating terms or drafting documents to prevent disputes.
He has worked in roles that require managing competing priorities and communicating under pressure. Those assignments sharpened the practical side of his practice. He has experience preparing legal memoranda, managing discovery processes and advising clients on procedural strategy. His work demonstrates an emphasis on clarity and responsiveness rather than rhetoric.
Today he continues to practice law. His professional life reflects the education he received at UCLA and Loyola, and his day-to-day work centers on advising and representing clients in practical legal matters.
