About John
John Abassian earned his law degree from Trinity Law School in 2003 after completing a business degree at Woodbury University in 2000. He moved from an undergraduate business program into law school, carrying an interest in how legal frameworks intersect with commercial activity. The academic record frames the early part of a career built around California practice.
After receiving his J.D., Abassian began practicing law in California. He has worked in the state's legal community since the early 2000s, representing clients in matters governed by California law. His background in business informs his approach to legal problems. It also shapes how he evaluates risk and structures solutions for individuals and organizations that come to him for counsel.
Over the years Abassian has been based out of Abassian Marrache LLP. At that firm he has handled a range of matters that require knowledge of state procedure and local courts. Colleagues describe him as methodical and direct in the way he prepares cases and communicates with clients. He is comfortable in negotiations and in the courtroom, and he draws on both transactional and litigation skills when the situation calls for them.
His academic training in business followed by a law degree gives him a particular angle on disputes and deals that touch commercial interests. He looks for practical pathways through complex factual records. He also pays attention to the procedural requirements that can determine the pace of a case. That emphasis on procedure and practical problem-solving has guided how he staffs matters and allocates resources at his firm.
Outside of casework, Abassian has participated in local legal events and professional gatherings in California. He keeps current on changes in state law and court rules, and he applies those updates to client matters. He has maintained a continuous presence in the California bar and continues to take on new matters suited to his background.
Today Abassian practices at Abassian Marrache LLP in California, handling matters that arise under state law and offering counsel shaped by his combined business and legal training.
