He spent two years as a writer for The Youth's Companion. He was admitted to the Hampden County bar in 1895 after studying law under his father, Judge Henry Chapin.[5]

Chapin was hired as the Solicitor of Holyoke, Massachusetts in 1896 and two years later he was elected Mayor of the city. He was elected Treasurer and Receiver-General of Massachusetts in 1904, an office he held until April 1, 1909 when he resigned to become State Bank Commissioner.[5][7] He resigned as bank commissioner on January 15, 1912 in order to become a vice-president of the American Trust Company.[8]
