The list of pending lawsuits wasn’t the only thing weighing on Wendy Hufford’s mind when she accepted a job as chief litigation counsel at Cardinal Health Inc. Hufford, 45, was also plotting the best way to move eight children, two cats, two dogs and one husband (a practicing lawyer himself) from Rye, N.Y., and get them resettled in Dublin, Ohio. Taking over the litigation portfolio of the Fortune 20 health care service and supply giant almost seemed simple by contrast.

Before jumping to Cardinal Health, Hufford was senior global litigation counsel at GE Consumer Finance, a Stamford, Conn.-based subsidiary of General Electric Co. that specializes in private-label credit cards, personal and auto loans, and mortgages. Prior to her eight-and-a-half years at GE, Hufford worked at Credit Suisse First Boston and practiced at Davis Polk & Wardwell.
