Cellino & Barnes

Cellino & Barnes was an American personal injury law firm which was based in Buffalo, New York. It was founded in 1998 by Ross Cellino Jr. and Steve Barnes, and dissolved in 2020 shortly before the death of Steve Barnes.

History
Cellino & Barnes traced its history back to a law firm founded by Cellino's father, Cellino & Likoudis, in 1958. They were well known nationally for their distinctive jingle, which became an internet meme. The firm had offices across New York State, including New York City, and also in Los Angeles. In 2017, Cellino & Barnes had 50 attorneys and 250 employees in their offices.

Upon the dissolution of the firm in June 2020, the two attorneys formed separate agencies: Cellino Law and the Barnes Firm.

On October 2, 2020, Barnes, along with his niece Elizabeth, was killed in the crash of a TBM 700 single-engine private airplane in Pembroke, Genesee County, New York. He was 61 years old. Upon his death, Barnes' brother Rich Barnes took over as the head and face of the Barnes Firm.
