Apple has reshuffled its legal leadership, appointing Meta VP Scott Tucker as its new VP of global litigation and financial services. The move, reported by Bloomberg, reunites Tucker with Apple SVP and General Counsel Jennifer Newstead, who previously served as chief legal officer at Meta. Tucker will oversee commercial and patent litigation, as well as financial legal matters, leveraging his prior experience at Morgan Stanley.
In a related adjustment, Apple VP Heather Grenier will now report to Tucker instead of Newstead. Additionally, VP Kyle Andeer’s role has been expanded to include international legal matters, such as online child safety, law enforcement, and cybersecurity. The appointment marks the latest in a series of leadership changes at Apple in 2026, following the introduction of CEO John Ternus.
