Korrin Peterson shares how her two decades with the Buzzards Bay Coalition shaped her unconventional environmental law career, blending litigation, policy advocacy, grant management, and hands-on wastewater infrastructure work before transitioning into private practice at Bowditch & Dewey. She explains how environmental law extends far beyond statutes and regulations, requiring attorneys to understand science, engineering, public policy, and the financial realities facing municipalities and developers.

With practical insight for attorneys across practice areas, Korrin discusses:

  • Why environmental law requires lawyers to understand science, infrastructure, and public policy alongside legal analysis
  • How climate change, aging infrastructure, and seasonal population surges are creating growing challenges for Massachusetts coastal communities
  • Why wastewater and environmental infrastructure projects are often politically and financially difficult for municipalities to address
  • What attorneys in real estate, probate, and family law should watch for when handling coastal or environmentally sensitive properties
  • Why environmental issues frequently emerge in real estate transactions through contamination, wetlands restrictions, and permitting requirements
  • Why bringing environmental counsel into a project early can save clients significant time, expense, and regulatory complications
  • How legislative advocacy differs from traditional legal practice and why lawyers play an important role in shaping evolving environmental policy

Throughout the conversation, Korrin emphasizes that environmental law is constantly evolving as communities adapt to changing environmental conditions, infrastructure limitations, and development pressures. She highlights the importance of long-term thinking, interdisciplinary problem-solving, and proactive legal strategy when navigating environmental challenges affecting businesses, municipalities, and property owners alike.

Featured Guest

Korrin Peterson — Environmental attorney at Bowditch & Dewey, Korrin advises clients on environmental permitting, wastewater infrastructure, brownfields redevelopment, compliance, and real estate matters.

Mark shares a candid look at the nonlinear path that led him to become Executive Director of MCLE, highlighting how resilience, adaptability, and a willingness to pursue new opportunities shaped his career. From working in finance and higher education to building a solo law practice and teaching for over three decades, Mark emphasizes that professional growth often comes from unexpected turns rather than a single defined path.

He also provides insight into the inner workings of MCLE, explaining how the organization relies on a vast network of dedicated volunteers to deliver high-quality programming and resources to the legal community. With thousands of years of collective experience contributed by volunteer attorneys, MCLE’s model is rooted in practical, experience-driven education rather than traditional academic methods.

With a focus on the future, Mark discusses:

  • Why embracing career pivots and setbacks can lead to long-term professional growth
  • How MCLE’s volunteer-driven model creates unmatched practical value for attorneys
  • What distinguishes continuing legal education from traditional legal training
  • How innovation, including scenario-based learning and new programming models, is shaping the future of MCLE
  • Why teaching and contributing to CLE programming strengthens communication, presentation skills, and professional reputation
  • How initiatives like the Dive Fellowship aim to develop the next generation of MCLE contributors

Mandy and Cameron break down what it actually takes to build a career in sports law and why there is no single path in. Mandy highlights the role of persistence, networking, and starting in a non-attorney position, while Cameron shares how a traditional law firm path and a strategic in-house pivot led her to Fenway Sports Group. They also challenge common misconceptions about the field, explaining that their work focuses on commercial contracts, sponsorships, intellectual property, and business operations rather than player deals, and closely mirrors a traditional in-house legal role.

With practical insight for attorneys and law students, Mandy and Cameron discuss:

  • Why there is no single “right” path into sports law — and how different experiences can position you to stand out
  • How networking, persistence, and timing play a critical role in breaking into competitive industries
  • Why strong contract drafting skills and broad legal experience are essential for in-house roles
  • Why business judgment and a “find a way to yes” approach lead to stronger client relationships
  • Why sports lawyers are often generalists who must navigate multiple areas of law simultaneously
  • How building trust with internal stakeholders leads to better, more proactive legal support

They reflect on the evolving landscape of women in sports law, highlighting increased representation and leadership in recent years, as well as the collaborative nature of in-house work. Legal teams work closely with marketing, sales, HR, and operations to support broader business goals. Ultimately, Mandy and Cameron emphasize that success depends on being a well-rounded, business-savvy lawyer who can adapt, solve problems, and contribute beyond purely legal analysis.

Featured Guests

Mandy Petrillo — Assistant General Counsel at Fenway Sports Group, Mandy has spent nearly two decades with the organization, supporting the Boston Red Sox and related entities across a wide range of commercial, intellectual property, and business matters.

Mike shares how his firm’s transition to Bowditch & Dewey marked a strategic shift toward greater depth, stability, and long-term growth. He reflects on the realities of law firm mergers, the importance of cultural fit, and why thoughtful, deliberate decision-making matters when navigating professional change. At the same time, he explores what it truly takes to master trial advocacy — not just knowing the rules of evidence but developing the judgment to use them effectively in real time.

With practical insight and courtroom perspective, Mike discusses:

  • Why choosing the right professional “fit” matters more than chasing greener grass
  • How expanded resources and stability strengthen both lawyers and clients
  • Why objections require judgment — not just knowledge of the rules
  • When restraint in the courtroom is more powerful than constant objection
  • How experiential learning builds real courtroom confidence and much more

Mike emphasizes that becoming a strong trial lawyer is an iterative process — one that requires repetition, reflection, and real courtroom experience. He underscores that continuing legal education is not simply a requirement, but a professional obligation and opportunity to refine craft, build community, and elevate standards across the bar.

Featured Guest

Mike Sams — Litigation Practice Area Co-Leader at Bowditch & Dewey, Mike is a seasoned trial lawyer and business litigator serving companies throughout New England.

Chris shares how the pandemic prompted a fundamental shift in how he viewed his role as a lawyer — from focusing primarily on results to becoming deeply intentional about how clients feel at every stage of representation. He explains why client service begins at intake, long before a fee agreement is signed, and why firms that ignore the client experience do so at their own risk.

With honesty, humor, and concrete examples, Chris discusses:

  • Why client experience starts at the first phone call — and how tone, empathy, and responsiveness shape trust
  • How over-communication beats silence, even when there are no case updates
  • Using client portals, automation, and surveys to improve communication without increasing attorney workload
  • Turning clients into “raving fans” who drive referrals long after a case ends
  • Why unhappy clients rarely complain directly — but always remember poor communication
  • How brutal honesty, delivered with care, strengthens client relationships
  • The parallels between law firms and service businesses like restaurants and Amazon
  • How improving client experience benefits not only clients, but also staff morale and firm culture

Chris emphasizes that most of the most impactful improvements to client experience are low-cost or free, requiring intention rather than technology — and that firms who prioritize service see fewer bar complaints, better reviews, and stronger reputations over time.

Host Bruce Richard sits down with elder law attorney and MCLE author Brian E. Barreira to separate fact from fiction in long-term care and MassHealth planning. In a wide-ranging discussion packed with practical insights, Brian highlights three critical issues that all legal practitioners, and their clients should better understand:

  • Why going on MassHealth doesn’t mean receiving inferior nursing home care
  • The surprising benefits of probate for married couples and how it can protect assets
  • When putting a house or assets into a trust helps—and when it can actually hurt

With clarity and candor, Brian challenges conventional estate planning advice and explains why thoughtful, individualized strategies are essential when planning for long-term care costs in Massachusetts.

VINCENT DEPALO is a partner at Smith Duggan Buell & Rufo LLP in Boston. He concentrates his practice in complex civil litigation, particularly toxic torts; products liability; and insurance defense. His courtroom experience includes a recent defense verdict in the first joint asbestos-tobacco exposure trial in Massachusetts history. This six-week jury trial garnered national attention and resulted in a $43.1 million verdict against a codefendant tobacco company. The jury found Mr. DePalo’s client not liable on all counts. Mr. DePalo was published in both legal and scientific journals. Most recently, he coauthored the Massachusetts law chapter in the Claims Professional Desk Reference manual published by the Federation of Defense & Corporate Counsel. He previously served as a Judicial Fellow for Superior Court Associate Justice Dennis J. Curran. During this time, Mr. DePalo gained unparalleled access to dozens of juries after they rendered their verdicts as part of a research project analyzing jury education levels, the effectiveness of early judicial intervention, and presumptive mediation in civil cases. In addition to practicing law, Mr. DePalo is an adjunct professor at Northeastern School of Law where teaches torts to LLM students and he has guest lectured at Brown University, Tufts University, and Roger Williams School of Law.
