Experienced. Specialized. Arizona-Focused.

Jason Romero is a founding partner of St. John & Romero, PLLC and the attorney behind AZCharterLaw’s charter-school practice.

He advises Arizona charter schools on governance, compliance, employment, contracts, student matters, board issues, and the legal decisions that shape school operations. His approach is practical and relationship-driven: helping school leaders understand risk, make sound decisions, and address legal issues before they become larger problems.

Jason also brings substantial litigation experience to his counseling work. That perspective helps him advise charter schools not only on what the law requires, but on how decisions, policies, documentation, and governance practices are likely to hold up when challenged.

Through AZCharterLaw, he works with charter leaders and boards to build stronger systems, improve decision-making, and create a counsel relationship that supports the institution over time.

Before law school, he served in the U.S. Army (1992–2001), rising to Non-Commissioned Officer. He earned his B.S., magna cum laude, from Arizona State University and his J.D., with high pro bono distinction, from the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law.
