Biography

The Hon. Francis E. Flannery is an associate justice for the Hampden County Superior Court in Massachusetts. He was appointed to the bench by Governor Charlie Baker on July 25, 2018.


Flannery earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst in 1989. He then completed a J.D. at Willamette University College of Law in 1994.


After graduating from law school, Flannery began his legal career as an associate in the Law Office of Lawrence Farber. He handled criminal defense and civil matters with the firm until 1998, at which time he joined the Northwestern District Attorney’s Office. During his tenure there, he started as an Assistant District Attorney, prosecuting major felony cases and sexually dangerous person petitions. He rose through the ranks to become Chief of the Elders & Persons with Disabilities Unit in 2002.


In 2013, Flannery returned to private practice, this time as a sole practitioner in Springfield. He worked in that capacity for five years, eventually leaving to join the Hampden County District Attorney’s Office as its First Assistant District Attorney. However, his time there was brief. The following year, in 2014, Flannery accepted a role as of counsel at Parker & O’Grady. He held this position until his appointment to the bench.


His memberships have included the Hampshire County Bar Association and the Hampden County Bar Association. He also sat on the Board of Directors of the Wistariahurst Museum.


He has taught legal ethics at the American International College in Springfield.


Flannery was a resident of Holyoke, Massachusetts, at the time of his appointment.
