A man was killed in a snowmobile accident in Lewis County on December 29. According to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office, the victim of the snowmobile accident that happened in the Town of West Turin, New York, was identified as thirty-two-year-old Jason Norfolk from Jordan, New York. 

The deputies reported that Norfolk was driving a 2021 MXZ TNT 600 snowmobile, and while he was going northbound on North Road, he didn’t negotiate a left-hand curve and hit a tree while exiting the trail.

Norfolk was pronounced dead at the scene.

Lewis County Sheriff’s said that Deputies responded to the snowmobile accident in Lewis County at about 7:44 p.m. on December 29.

The Sheriff’s Office got help from the New York State Police, Constableville Ambulance, Lewis County Search and Rescue, and Sullivan’s Towing.

Snowy, wet, and icy roads are one of the biggest reasons for accidents in the winter months. Speeding and not being able to operate the vehicle in such conditions can be deadly. 

If you were involved in such an accident (no matter if it was a one-vehicle or multiple-vehicle crash) make sure you get help from an attorney. Even though the weather requires even more careful driving, sometimes, the reason behind the accident can be other than that. Your attorney may seek a compensation claim from the manufacturer of the vehicle or the road maintenance service that didn’t clean the snow on time.

There are many possibilities to handle such accidents. It’s important that you get a claim for your injuries and damages. Recovering after an accident may take some time. During this time you’ll have to be absent from work and lose wages while the medical bills are growing.

  • Joe and I just wanted to send you this note thanking you for the professional way you handled our lawsuit. Your kindness was extremely appreciated in a very difficult time. When we found out the people that caused the accident had no insurance, we thought our chances of receiving any settlement was nonexistent. Once we met with you and released you were able to help us our minds were put at ease. Your aggressive manner of handling the case exceeded our expectations. Please feel free to use us as a reference. Thank you so much and best wishes,

  • 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.
