Jacqueline Michelle Kugler Petrillo

I am an associate at Sugarman & Sugarman and participate in all areas of the firm's personal injury practice including medical malpractice, pharmacy negligence, wrongful death, construction site accidents, and premises liability. Having been a registered pharmacist since 1997, I bring a unique perspective to each case and when dealing with clients. I originally joined the firm as an associate in 2006, left in 2009 to pursue other interests, and returned in 2021.

Prior to joining Sugarman in 2006, I worked as a clinical pharmacist in a variety of settings. During my years away from the firm, I was an Assistant Professor of Pharmacy Practice at MCPHS University, where I lectured on a variety of topics, including professional liability, pharmacy and healthcare law, and opioid addiction. I frequently gave continuing education lectures to pharmacists and other allied health professionals on these issues. I have been an invited expert reviewer for both Pharmacist’s Letter and Prescriber’s Letter since 2014. I was also recognized in Massachusetts Super Lawyer Rising Stars in 2013 and 2014 in the area of healthcare law.

I graduated MCPHS University in 1997 with my BS in Pharmacy, and in 2001 with my PharmD. I graduated Suffolk University Law School, cum laude¸ in 2005. I was admitted to the Massachusetts Bar in 2005 and the United States District Court, District of Massachusetts in 2006.
