Our History

Our founder, Steve Barnes, began his personal injury practice with an aspiration to help accident victims across the nation recover the best results possible from cases both large and small. That goal has driven our firm to put in the time required – day or night – to maximize the results of our client’s case; because we know winning requires that kind of effort.

As a former Marine Corps officer and combat veteran of the Gulf War, Steve also understood how important a disciplined focus can be when achieving a goal. That clear vision helps provide our clients with the strength and resolve needed to litigate against some of the biggest insurance companies and businesses in the world.

Steve’s 30+ year career as a personal injury attorney spanned both the law offices of Cellino & Barnes and The Barnes Firm. He was involved as counsel in scores of multi-million dollar cases including motor vehicle accidents, construction accidents, severe burns, traumatic brain injury cases and medical malpractice litigation. Steve also acted as lead trial counsel in a products liability case in New York that resulted in one of the largest settlements in American history.

Founder Steve Barnes and President Rich Barnes

After the unexpected passing of Steve Barnes, his brother and distinguished attorney Rich Barnes was appointed President of The Barnes Firm. Rich brings 40+ years of legal experience as a trial lawyer, senior assistant District Attorney, private practice lawyer, as well as serving as president of the WNY Trial Lawyers Association.

It was Steve Barnes’ dream to bring justice to all Americans who suffer due to the wrongdoing of individuals and corporations alike. With a shared passion for advocating for what is right, Rich Barnes and all of the attorneys at The Barnes Firm are driven to honor Steve Barnes’ legacy by upholding the standard of achieving the best result possible for every client in every case.
