All sides of the spectrum of family law are served by the firm. In order to best serve its growing clientele, Baghdaserians Law Group has multiple offices located in Pasadena and Beverly Hills.
“Family law is such a melting pot, which is what really drew me to it,” Baghdaserians says. “It provides the opportunity to be a litigator, a mediator, and to go to court. Being able to go to court and advocate for others is something I’ve always wanted to do in my life, and it turns out I’m really good at it. When it comes to family law, we’re not dealing with large corporations. We’re dealing with human beings and children, and I get to make a positive impact on people’s lives every day.”
Having worked for almost two decades as an attorney, Patrick looks forward to continuing to serve his clients and the community for many years to come. “I love advocacy, going to court and protecting my clients,” Baghdaserians says. “I love advocating on behalf of people who can’t advocate for themselves. That’s the real role of a lawyer—whether you’re in family law, personal injury law or criminal law, it doesn’t matter. At the end of the day, we are advocates. Advocacy is what drew me to a career in the legal industry, it drew me to family law, it’s the reason I love what I do.”
Patrick grew up in the La Canada Flintridge area, attending St. Francis High School. He then attended Loyola Marymount University and earned his law degree from Southwestern Law School. While in law school, Patrick had the distinct honor of working for renowned Federal Judge, the Honorable Robert M. Takasugi, as a full-time legal extern.
