About Patrick
Patrick Baghdaserians built his path to law through classrooms and courtrooms. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Loyola Marymount University in 2004 and completed his Juris Doctor at Southwestern University School of Law in 2007. Those years set the foundation for a career concentrated in California courts. He is admitted to practice in California.
He began practicing after law school and over time took on leadership responsibilities inside his own firm. He is the firm principal at Baghdaserians Law Group Inc., where he manages case strategy and day-to-day operations. His role requires hands-on work on family law matters and oversight of personnel, budgeting, and client intake. He also holds certification as a Certified Family Law Specialist from the State Bar of California, a credential that recognizes expertise in that area under state rules.
Courtroom work and negotiation sit together in his practice. He handles divorce proceedings, child custody disputes, spousal support issues, and related financial matters. He represents clients in contested hearings and settlement talks, and he prepares motions, declarations, and financial disclosures. His caseload includes both trial work and alternative dispute resolution. He often must translate complicated financial documents into clear arguments for judges and mediators.
Outside the office he has remained connected to his law school. Since 2019 he has served as president elect of the Alumni Board of Directors at Southwestern University School of Law. That role has him involved in alumni engagement, programming, and mentorship efforts aimed at recent graduates and current students. The position keeps him plugged into legal education and the professional development of younger attorneys.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in preparation and direct in court. Clients tend to find his explanations straightforward. He pairs investigative work on financial and family matters with an eye toward practical resolution. Cases can move quickly or slowly; he plans for both outcomes and adjusts tactics as facts develop.
He has not published widely in legal journals and does not list public office experience. His practice centers on family law in California and the management responsibilities of running a small firm. He continues to handle litigation and negotiated settlements at Baghdaserians Law Group Inc., where his current practice focus is family law matters in California.
