Re: representation
The Lawyer either needs to be admitted here by applying to practice law in MA and passing the Bar or if it is a single case, he needs to file a Motion Pro Hac Vitae to be allowed to practice in a particular case in MA. He will need a MA LAwyer to sponsor his Motion as well.

You might visit: 1) American Bar Association's "Comprehensive Guide To Bar Admissions" - available as a free PDF download from their web site; and 2) Refer to the MA Board Of Bar Overseers' Web Site. Also google the Supreme Judicial Court's Rules of Admission.
Good Luck.
