The father of Nicki Minaj was killed in a hit-and-run accident that happened in New York, the police confirmed.

The rap star’s father, sixty-four-year-old Robert Maraj was walking along a road in Long Island on Friday evening, February 12, when he was hit by a car. The driver drove away from the scene. Maraj was taken to a hospital but died from his injuries on Sunday.

The police are now asking any witnesses of the accident to come forward for the investigation. 

A hit-and-run accident that involves pedestrians is devastating. There is no liable party for the family to file a lawsuit against. Things are complex and even more devastating if the victim dies from their injuries.

Pedestrian accidents are very dangerous because the person has no protection as a driver in a car or a truck would have.

Fleeing the scene is a crime and if the police catch the driver they will be charged with additional charges for not staying and helping the person they hit.

Being injured in such an accident can dramatically change your life. Your injuries may be severe (spine injury, traumatic brain injury, fractures) that would require a long stay at the hospital, surgeries, medications and wheelchair. 

Covering the medical bills for this may be a challenge for your budget. It’s important to contact a car accident attorney who will help you get your much-deserved compensation claim.

Trying to get the settlement by yourself may be a complex process. Many people don’t know how insurance companies work (offering low settlements or denying them completely). Your attorney will be of great help in this process.

Our team of attorneys has skills, knowledge and history in such cases. We’re here to help you get your claim; contact our office and schedule your consultation with a New York car accident attorney.

Testimonials

  • I am writing this letter to say how much I appreciate your services pertaining to my case. Your injury attorney took a hands-on approach and left me fully informed at all times as to where my case was going as well as how much ground we had to cover; leaving the final decisions in my hands but making sure that I knew all of the risks involved in the choices. I have dealt with a few law firms in my life on various different cases and this is the first time that I never had to call and/or track down my lawyer… because of this, I have and will continue to recommend Cellino Law to my friends and associates.

  • I am writing to let you know what an outstanding job George Gridelli did for me in my personal injury lawsuit. His professionalism and expertise were evident at our first metting and he and his paralegal Diane D'Andrea took care of me as if I was a friend and not merely a client. They both went above and beyond for me in so many ways that it would be too numerous to list and I am grateful to have had such an exemplary team represent me. When working with George and watching him in court he personified to me what a lawyer is supposed to be - an honest, extremely compentent man who helped guide me through the legal system. I could not have obtained better representation anywhere else at any price. To me that says a lot abut you and your firm's integrity. Thank you again for representing me and for having such stellar individuals working for you! I will continue to recommend your firm.

  • Cellino Law and more specifically my attorney, Gregory V. Pajak, Managing Attorney, and as a whole the Cellino Law Firm and its 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.

  • This letter is to thank Ms. Diane D’Andrea, assistant to Mr. George Gridelli, Attny for all the hard work, dedication, and attentiveness she showed during the representation of my case. She was always cheerful and ready to help in whatever way she could. All messages left for Mr. Gridelli were always relayed and Mr. Gridelli always promptly returned our calls. She was a very competent assistant. Cellino Law has proven to be a model of what legal representation should be. Throughout the 6 ½ years of this case, I have heard many horror stories from people with “bad lawyer stories.” We consider ourselves to be very lucky to have chosen Cellino Law and will always recommend you to those looking for good, honest representation with a personal touch.
