With football season less than a month away, one former Big Law partner who represented the National Football League’s New York Giants and New York Jets on the construction of MetLife Stadium is getting ready for a new season of her own.

Mary Jane Augustine, 70, retired from McCarter & English’s partnership earlier this year. A construction law expert who in 2010 was named the firm’s first female managing partner in New York, Augustine is now a co-principal at Simply Sustainable LLC, a startup company that provides green and highly sustainable building materials and interior finish products.
