After almost a quarter century leading Mary Kay’s legal department, Julia Simon is ready to take on a new challenge. So she’s gone back to private practice, taking a partner role at boutique Texas litigation firm Lynn Pinker Hurst & Schwegmann.
Simon quietly departed Mary Kay last fall. She told Law.com she was eligible for retirement and looking to begin the next chapter of her career, but wasn’t interested in another corporate legal role.
