About Cassandra
Cassandra Morin built her path to the bar through steady steps and local institutions. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Communication and Media Studies from the University of Maine — University of Southern Maine in 2016. She continued at the University of Maine School of Law and received her J.D. in 2021.
Her entry into the legal field began before law school. In 2013 she worked as a paralegal at Dionne & Couturier, LLC, a role that gave her early exposure to client intake, document management and courtroom procedure. That practical grounding informed her decision to pursue law and proved useful throughout her studies.
After law school, Morin moved quickly into practice. In 2021 she took roles at both Legal-Ease, LLC and at the firm Levey, Wagley, Putman & Eccher, P.A., serving as an associate lawyer. Those positions involved regular legal drafting, research and client advising. Colleagues say she adapted to the demands of case preparation and courtroom deadlines with a methodical approach.
Her next professional move came in 2023 when she joined Desmond, Rand & Guerard, P.A. There she continued to expand her responsibilities. The work at the firm has included managing files, preparing pleadings and counseling clients through procedural steps. She has handled matters that require careful fact development and clear written advocacy.
Morin’s practice reflects the kinds of skills cultivated early in her career: analytical research, clear writing and disciplined file management. She has experience working on both transactional and contested matters. Her background as a paralegal gave her a detailed view of litigation workflow, which she applies when assembling records, coordinating filings and communicating with clients and opposing counsel.
Peers describe her style as straightforward. She tends to break complex issues into manageable parts and to set realistic expectations for clients. In meetings she focuses on practical next steps. In court and in writing she emphasizes clarity.
Outside of casework she remains connected to Maine’s legal community. Her educational and professional history is rooted in the state, and she has developed local relationships across several law offices since 2013. As of 2026 she practices at Desmond, Rand & Guerard, P.A., where her work centers on client representation, case preparation and courtroom procedure.
