Biography

The Hon. Michael J. Cassidy is a judge on the Orange County Superior Court in California. He was appointed to the bench by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2009, filling a vacancy created by the retirement of the Hon. H. Warren Siegel.


Prior to his appointment, Cassidy held positions with the Orange County Superior Court, working as a commissioner (2000 to 2009) and a juvenile court referee (1997 to 2000).


Cassidy earned a B.S. from Western State University. He worked as a police officer for ten years, eventually completing a J.D. at Western State College of Law in 1986. He was licensed to practice in California (1986).


After graduating from law school, Cassidy opened his own private practice as a sole practitioner in Santa Ana. He worked in that capacity until 1991, at which time he became an associate at Stewart & Barnett. Then, in 1993, he resumed his practice as a sole practitioner, representing clients in civil, criminal, and family law matters.


He is registered as a Republican.
