Firm
AALR/R
Atkinson, Andelson, Loya, Ruud & Romo
California education-law firm. Served as LBUSD outside counsel during the Vickers/Viloria era and continuing into the early Glass superintendency; succeeded as LBUSD general counsel by Dannis Woliver Kelley following the 4-1 October 23, 2025 retention vote. Tony DeMarco and Scott Danforth are the two AALR/R attorneys named on the record as having handled LBUSD board matters. Per Superintendent Glass at the February 12, 2026 board meeting, the district has historically used multiple firms — AALR/R for board matters, F3 "on occasion," and BBK historically. A January 2026 invoice of approximately $39,000 was referenced by Glass on April 16, 2026 as work on historical matters not yet transferred to DWK.
