If you’re a law student or new lawyer, be sure to check out the Massachusetts Bar Association’s “How Did I Get Here?” podcast series on the MassBar Beat!
Launched this past year with MBA Civil Litigation Section Chair Michael D. Molloy, the series has explored the path from new lawyer to partner through in-depth interviews with lawyers at law firms, solo practitioners, in-house counsel and government employees about their unique path to a partner-level position.
For Episode One in the series, host Jordan Rich spoke with Molloy about his path to becoming a partner with Marcotte Law Firm in Lowell. In subsequent episodes, Molloy has hosted and interviewed others about their different paths to the top of the profession.
Here are the six episodes that ran in the series during the 2023-24 MBA year.
