Ross Cellino

Can’t recommend the Knox Mansion tour enough!! As a local, it’s great when some of these historic mansions open their doors to the public. Dr. Michael Cellino delivers a fantastic, leisurely tour, with the right mix of history and humor. After seeing a lot of these mansions across the northeast, this mansion is filled with several one-of-a-kind touches – it’s pretty remarkable these furnishings are all in Buffalo. Definitely recommend!

“Keep Buffalo a Secret…and the Knox Mansion Tour!”. Dr. Michael Cellino (brother of Ross, lawyer/mansion owner) gave our amazing complimentary 1.5 hour tour on a Sat morning as he brought you back in time with his wealth of knowledge and true passion for Buffalo history preservation. The mansion currently is mixed use space that is shared with the law firm but that didn’t distract from the beauty and craftsmanship of the architecture. Honestly, the Cellino family using it today brings warmth and life into the home. They only take so many guests (15) on Sat & Sunday 10 am morning tours only, so you must preregister via the law firms website and they only book out 2 months in advance. There is a online wait list form, but I didn’t use that. Tips: Arrive a few minutes before the tour to look around and take in the details of the 1st floor as other tour guests arrive. It is mostly standing/walking and you do walk up/down stairs. Restrooms are available, which are best to use before the tour starts so you don’t miss out on anything during the tour. They don’t recommend for child under 12, which I agree with as a youngster on our tour was behaved but did get tired. *Suggestion – I do hope a professional film crew films Dr. Cellino giving this mansion tour. He really is a Buffalo gem and was just fantastic! Thank you to the Cellino family.

Dr. Michael Cellino gave a fantastic tour. So full of information not only of the Knox Mansion but of Buffalo and the neighborhood. Ross Cellino has done a marvelous job of bringing the mansion back to its full glory. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy this remarkable piece of Buffalo history.

My daughter and I attended the historical tour of Knox Mansion on May 3, 2025. We thoughly enjoyed seeing this historic building and were impressed on the restoration that has been done. Our tour was presented by Dr. Michael Cellino. He did an amazing job. He was informative, walked us through the manson leaving lots of time for us to take in and appreciate each room and answered all of our questions. Ross Cellino also took time to say hello. Thank you for preserving this beautiful landmark and allowing the public to enjoy it!

The home of Seymour Knox, now owned by Cellino Law, was such a sight to behold. Enjoyed a fact filled tour and enjoyed seeing the craftsmanship and original pieces from the Knox family. This home is a gem, and I am grateful for how Ross Cellino has invested in its preservation.

The team at Cellino Law worked diligently and left no stone unturned when representing my family. We are glad to have chosen them. Thanks to Mark Davis and Gina. And Ross, too!

Great time at the Knox mansion. Dr Cellino was very informative and gave great insight on the tour. Thanks to Ross Cellino for opening up his office and for providing the tour! Well Done !

Yesterday I posted a poor review for this business because of the dangerous sidewalk conditions in front of the building. Today Ross Cellino contacted me and we discussed the issue. Apparently, this is a small but important detail that has been overlooked. Mr. Cellino assured me that he will bring it to the attention of his staff. I believe that this will happen. His quick response and pleasant business demeanor convinced me that this is a company that cares about it’s community. An oversight is understandable. Thank you, Ross Cellino

How can you advertise medical malpractice when you don’t…false advertising. Mr. Ross Cellino reached out to me personally and he gave me guidance. That was extremely nice of him and pleasant to chat with. Appreciate it. Thank you

We had a tour of the Cellino Law / Knox Mansion. Ross Cellino’s brother Mike volunteers to give tours . Wow, he was extremely well versed on the property and the history. Thank you for allowing the public access and for the free tour. Extremely generous.

My family and I are very grateful to have been able to view the Knox Mansion. The tour provided by Ross and Michael Cellino was very informative, pleasant and humorous. Thank you for restoring this beautiful piece of history and opening your doors for all to enjoy. I’m sure Cellino Law employees enjoy the beauty as well.
Extra note: UB has a restoration department that may be able to help with the painting on the ceiling if needed.

We enjoyed a wonderful tour of the Knox Mansion. Dr. Michael Cellino gave a presentation that was very interesting and informative. Thanks to Ross Cellino and the Cellino Law firm for maintaining and preserving this beautiful building.

This was a fascinating tour! Although my wife and I have toured many historic places, we found this tour to be one of the best that we have experienced. Our guide was very knowledgeable and engaging. We had no idea that the mansion had such a rich history and included so many features. We were impressed by the incredibly detailed ledger that Mrs. Knox kept of each expense that went into the building. It was also interesting to learn that the mansion was the second house in the world to have central air conditioning! The beauty of the house and the great tour have led us to already spread the word. Thank you, Ross Cellino, for your careful integration of your law offices into the mansion that has allowed so many historic features to be preserved!

Enjoyed this tour on July 6, 2024. The tour is fantastic – historical, informative and delightful. I must applaud Ross Cellino for his efforts to restore and maintain this historic mansion for the Buffalo community to enjoy. Dr. Michael Cellino shared a wealth of facts about the Knox family and the mansion. As one familiar with the family during the Marjorie Knox Campbell Klopp years, I so enjoyed the tour and all the memories it brought to mind. My grandfather was Marjorie Klopp’s chauffer and lived in the apartment above the carriage house until 1969. I visited 806 Delaware and the East Aurora home often. Mrs. Klopp was wonderful to my grandparents and mother. I would encourage anyone to take advantage of this historically accurate architectural tour. Dr. Cellino provides a clear picture of this beautiful mansion’s history.

Fantastic Tour. Can’t beat the price, it’s free. Dr. Micheal Cellino is an excellent Tour guide and very funny. Would recommend to all ages. Thank you Ross Cellino for preserving a Historical Buffalo Monument for decades to come !!

Although I have never had to use a personal injury attorney -I can certainly testify to the integrity and character of Ross and the Cellino family…and how much they have done for the local community. 5 stars!

I would 100% recommended Cellino Law for anyone needing a lawyer. Ross is the most down to earth, understanding, and well educated lawyer. He helped us through the process to make the best outcome for my family. You definitely want him on your side!

I have been fortunate and never needed service from anyone at Cellino law or any other personal injury law firm. I have known Ross and his family as a customers of mine for several years. As a tradesman in the service industry working in people’s homes and businesses for over 20 years now I have met and done business with thousands of people. Over that time I have seen people at their best and their worst, and due to this I believe I have developed a 6th sense for determining people’s moral fiber. In the past decade of working directly with Ross I feel that I have insight that the public is not exposed to. I have nothing but respect for him and his family. Ross Cellino is someone who genuinely cares about people and wants to help them during what is probably the hardest time of their lives. Hopefully I can maintain never needing his services but if I ever did I would not hesitate to use him and his lawyers at Cellino law.

I met Ross and he is a great entrepreneur, has a beautiful family, is a true pillar of our community, a great steward of the Knox mansion, and obviously a fantastic attorney!

Thank you to Dr. Michael Cellino for guiding us through the Knox Mansion. Dr. Cellino’s knowledge of the building and of the family that called it home was enlightening. This beautiful home is a true gem.
Thank you to Ross Cellino and the team at Cellino Law for restoring the mansion and for inviting the public to visit.

The tour we attended was presented by Dr. Michael Cellino, brother of Ross Cellino. Michael was extremely knowledgeable on the history of the Knox family and construction of the Mansion. The mansion is absolutely beautiful!!! I highly recommend this tour, very enjoyable!!
Michael was very personable….

Brittany was friendly, caring, professional, attentive, a young woman like me who understood where I was coming from and most importantly, transparent and full of fight. She did the best she could for me and my case and I am at peace with my situation. Brittany is very promising and I wish her the best in her career and future endeavors. I would definitely recommend clients her way should they cross my path. Blessings!

So happy Ross Cellino bought this gorgeous home snd restored it for his law office. It is a real Buffalo treasure. The tour was wonderful and the docent was knowledgeable and very entertaining.

Congratulations Cellino Law.

Tour was superb. Michael Cellino was our guide he was extremely knowledgeable and had many interesting facts to share about the mansion. There was approximately 15 on tour which kept it interesting and personalized. Added bonus at end Ross Celine and his wife were at mansion picking up some items after a holiday party . They were very cordial and suggested our group leave a review of the tour because they really enjoy sharing the house with others. I highly suggest a visit this was the second time I’ve been in the mansion, and by far the best tour I’ve been on. Thank you to The Cellino’s for sharing such a gem.

I want to express my deepest gratitude to Ross Cellino and his staff. I contacted the firm through their website through happen-stance on a Sunday afternoon. I did the Live Chat which gave me a number to call for immediate attention. An attorney or paralegal I presumed, spoke with me and took my information. I was very surprised when Ross Cellino himself called me in less than two hours. Ross was kind, respectful and made me feel at ease. I had spoken to a few attorneys prior to speaking with Ross. Ross completely different from the other attorneys whom I had spoken with. The other attorneys were trying to prime me with a hopeful and successful case completion. They were obviously “ambulance chasers” . Ross was definitely not. In short he guided me properly without any pressure. The end result was that I didn’t really have a case. Ross explained to me that the best course of action was for me to continue with my medical visits through my Workman’s Comp case and wished me well. I wish Ross Cellino well and continued success. I truly encourage anyone reading this post that they save themselves the time and agony of what needs to be done and reach out to Ross Cellino of the Cellino Law Accident Attorneys Firm.

What an amazing building, tour by Michael, and hello from Ross at the end of the tour today. The website said the tour was full but I emailed as we were in only for the day (Go Bills) from London, Ontario and Michael got back to me promptly and said come down for 9am. It was so worth it! He was an amazing tour guide and very gracious to open the historic house to the public.

A Tour of the Knox Mansion! The tour was fantastic! Dr. Michael Cellino (Ross’ brother) weaves an engaging story of the Knox family, the history of the mansion and the work Cellino Law has completed since purchasing it.

The elegant first floor rooms boast architectural plaster and wood molding, marble mantles, fabulous ceilings. Tall windows and spacious rooms provide a pleasant airy atmosphere. The upper floors are law offices and conference rooms, although there were a few bedrooms for guests.
We are fortunate that Cellino Law appreciates the significance of Buffalo’s architectural history and is committed to maintaining it and sharing the beauty by offering free tours to our community.

Ross and Annamarie are amazing attorneys! They are very knowledgeable, take care of the client, and have a great team to work with. Highly recommend!

Tom Cleere and his team hands down best service across the board. His team will provide you with THE BEST support financially, mentally, emotionally and will always just be a phone call away. Should you choose anyone else…My condolences 🙏. Thank you Tom, Mr. Cellino and Dena you have truly help mend and heal many wounds. 💙 ❤️

This was such a wonderful historical experience. I loved seeing and hearing all about the history of the home and how the Knox family came to be. Dr. Michael Cellino was so great at providing the tour and all the information. And that you to Ross Cellino for restoring this home as best as he can to its original beauty and allowing the buffalo community to tour this amazing mansion for free! I definitely recommend taking advantage of visiting this tour when you can and seeing and hearing the Buffalo history.

I highly recommend Celino Law Firm! My lawyer Casey Fundaro was so professional and caring to me during my difficult time losing my husband in a horrific motorcycle accident. He worked so hard on my case and always kept me up to date by calling and e-mailing me. He always talked me through every obstacle we faced. Casey definitely had to calm me down many times! I am so thankful he kept my son from having to give a deposition about his dad it would have been devastating to him but Casey worked his magic! Casey is an amazing lawyer and when we won the case at mediation, he turned to me and said we are a great team! It really meant a lot to me! It was a very long couple of years! I will be calling Ross Celino personally so I can thank him for assigning Casey Fundaro to my case! I know I will keep in touch with Casey, he really cared about me and my children. Thank You Maureen Rahm

Ross Cellino and Kelly Riley are exemplary professionals and I appreciate everything they have done for me. I’d definitely recommend them and utilize again in the future!

Ross Cellino is a top-notch attorney that you can trust. His law firm puts the client first and ethical.

I appreciated the firm’s professionalism & courtesy. Thank you Ross & Kelly!

Ross, is an excellent attorney. He truly cares about me as his client, and treats me with respect. I’ve had some tough times, yet Ross has made the outcome a VERY positive one. He, and his top notch staff, research like crazy anything that he does not already know. I recommend Ross and his firm to anyone who needs an injury attorney.

I have known Ross for over 50 years. Three words that most accurately describe him are: Sincere, Honest and Responsive. It permeates throughout the goals of his firm.

A trusted and valuable resource in our community.

Our tour was led by Dr Michael Celino, Ross’s brother, who clearly is intimately familiar with the property and its history. We had a wonderful experience and highly recommend the tour. The Knox Mansion is s gem of WNY.

Ross Cellino helped me with a legal matter, was very knowledgeable, and a true professional. Besides being a caring person, he talks to you , as a friend.

I first became acquainted with Ross Cellino during the construction of his home in Hamburg. At the time I was the building Inspector having jurisdiction of the project. I had total respect for his “hands on” effort and the degree of personal interest and hard work he employed in the every detail of the construction. Since I retired from my previous job, it’s been several years that I had any communication with Ross and more recently I been managing a small contracting firm. Recently, I was served with a claim involving an injury of a subcontractor on one of my jobs. After much deliberation, (although I thought it was a stretch) I reached out to Ross for assistance in obtaining legal counsel to represent me. To my surprise, I received a response from Ross promptly within the next day with his willingness to help. Understanding that neither Ross Cellino or his Law Firm would gain any profit from his taking the time to assist me, he did his best through the resources of his firm to find me the right legal representation. I put this in writing only to express to the multitude that Ross Cellino inclusive of his firm are not just ordinary personal injury attorneys. From my personal experience Ross Cellino and his firm has demonstrated that he and they truly care about others in a more unselfish manner than one could expect. I am confident anyone procuring their services will be treated with the same level of personal attention and respect. Thanks Ross!

Ross Cellino very competent knowledgeable and worked so diligently on my case. Joshua Sandberg and his paralegal Susan were phenomenal. I recommend them they work extremely hard to win your case.

I was hit by a car crossing the street right before the pandemic hit. So you can imagine some of the anguish I was going through. I called Celino Law and met with Mr. Allan Silverstein. HE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!! He listened to me and was so patient with me even in my times of anxiousness. I was informed of EVERYTHING that was happening and what my options were. Mr.Allan fought for my case and today I picked up check! Which will help me recover from all I suffered. I would seriously recommend him and Celino law to everyone I know!

CELLINO Law and more specifically my Attorney -Gregory V. Pajak Managing Attorney AND as a whole the CELLINO Law Firm and it’s organization. This is by far one of the most professional law firms and attorney I have ever engaged with and retained in my 35 years. The level of professionalism goes beyond words, the care and constant engagement with me as the client was touching – “I was never ever just treated as simply a CASE with potentially a significant dollar number attached to my file.”… I was engaged regularly, Tracey (Ass’t) and Greg always made sure to remain constant, as well as consistent in overseeing that my case was handled properly, and that it did matter in many ways – ensuring that the end result(s) would be fair and reasonable to my case/injury. The regular follow up calls were very satisfying, knowing that you’re involved in your case matters significantly AND always. One of my main items to recognize CELLINO LAW and Gregory, is that whenever I called, I was able to get through to speak directly to my Lawyer and he would answer any if not all of my questions in a very professional and genuinely caring manner. I always felt cared for and protected legally and more importantly, I was made feel as a human being that was being cared for and always keeping me abreast of all matters connected to the case. There was never a point I felt let down, on the contrary -the level of service was “STELLAR”… Greg is the consummate professional, a ‘role model’.. “if you will”… for what other attorneys should strive to become when dealing with their clients. It’s not always about the money, there’s a human factor involved and CELLINO Law and Greg made sure that I felt that way always – all the way through my case until it’s finalization. My deepest appreciation for what CELLINO LAW – Mr. Ross CELLINO has instilled and developed in the culture at his Law Firm and how it comes across upon the initial phone call when you need someone to be there in a time of need to take care of you and what is necessary to resolve your case. They wear their heart on their sleeve when engaging with you but, even more importantly, they put their money where their mouth is and prove positive results. I am truly satisfied with the outcome -it was fair and reasonable. “I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CELLINO LAW – they deserve 10 STARS++..” – Most definitely they prove themselves completely and thoroughly – no nonsense, just simply results. “THANK YOU AGAIN Greg, Tracey & CELLINO LAW!”

Ross was a keynote speaker at one of SMB Team’s events and his humility and competitive spirit were clearly demonstrated. If you’re looking for a TRUE advocate for your case for the best result possible, then look no further than the massively experienced and empathy-driven law firm Cellino & Law. You won’t regret your decision!

Ross and his team did a fantastic job for me. Highly recommended!

IF YOU ARE EVER IN A FIGHT, You want Robert J. Peragine from Cellino Law! Quick story, my life got turned upside down when a tractor trailer hit me hard on the Cross Bronx Expressway. When the police report showed that the tractor trailer driver was 100% in the wrong, the trucking company insurance firm sent me several harrassing letters and left a nasty phone messages to contact them directly to answer their questions. After a solid week of loosing sleep, I decided to contact a lawyer but I did not know any lawyers that handled stuff like this. I remembered a catchy tune from a law firm commercial on TV and decided I had nothing to loose. So I called them while singing the tune. I was so blessed, lucky and proud to have Mr. Peragine represented me. He came to my house that night and we discussed what had happened to me and my/our case. He was beyond awesome, as he also informed me of what to expect every bit and stage of the process. I’m ashamed to admit that I did not believe him at first but he was dead-on correct and accurate at every moment that my case was going through. I also have to say that his staff was a pleasure and a joy. I would call them or they would call me with constant updates. Limerick in paticular was the most helpful and professional person while going through my case. My case got settled today (04/01/2021) after such a long journey. I am extreamly EXTREAMLY satified with my outcome. Mr. Peragine is a very skillful and incredible Lawyer. He brings so much to Cellino Law that he sets the gold standard for them. I appreciate so much everything that he has done for me and my family. I hope that this small review shows just how truly greatful that I am. Thank you for your time. Daniel Stebbins.

Cellino Law is an amazing law firm. My husband and I were involved in a very bad car accident almost 5 years ago. After arriving home from the hospital I called what was Cellino and Barnes at the time and was assigned an attorney, Chris D’Amato. He was very prompt in returning my calls and answering any question I might of had. Chris immediately sent his investigators out for photos of injuries and to talk with local police. We also dealt with his paralegal he had at the time, Melanie. She was so helpful with the insurance companies. While still in the process of our cases we were given a new paralegal, Sara Moshier. What a God send she was. The transition was effortless, it was as if we had been dealing with her the whole time. Last thing I wanted to do after a terrible trauma was deal with insurance companies, Sara made the experience so easy and answered any question i had. She walked me through the process and let me tell you it is quite a lengthy process with many different parts. Sara was right on top of everything. When it came time to sign for the settlement, she made sure all i were dotted and t crossed. Sara is very efficient in her responsibilities for her clients. She is also a pleasure to speak with.
Chris goes above and beyond for his client. Even though we didn’t do as well as the commercials suggests, we believe our legal team was amazing. We hope we never need them again but on the unluckily hood we need an injury attorney again we know the team we will use. Chris D’Amato and Sara Moshier.
We highly recommend Cellino Law for your injury needs.

I have had the opportunity to utilize the services of Ross Cellino dating back to the late 80’s. This has included referrals for both family and victims of loss I had contact with in my previous career. In every case those that utilized his services were very satisfied with the handling of their case. Having had extensive contact with numerous attorneys in my career, I am confident that Mr Cellino is reputable, ethical and professional and I know he demands the same from his team. If you are in need of this type of service I highly recommend contacting Cellino Law based on my previous dealings, both personally and professionally.
