A one-year-old boy was killed in an upstate New York agricultural accident on Thursday, March 25. According to New York State Police, one-year-old Benjamin Miller was fatally hit after approaching a skid steer that his father was using to tow a hay wagon. 

The accident happened in the town of Burke, Franklin County, along the Canadian border. The boy was taken to a hospital in Malone, where the doctors pronounced him dead.

When such tragedies happen, the last thing a family can think of is legal matters. However, they should contact an attorney who has experience with such accidents and seek justice.

A personal injury attorney will review the case and explain what should be done. The family can file for a compensation claim that will cover the medical bills for the victim (if they were staying in a hospital), funeral and burial fees and other expenses.

Such cases are never easy since the family is in great pain, but some things have to be done.

If you have lost a loved one in a car accident or because of a personal injury caused by another party (due to negligence or mal intention) don’t wait for time to pass by. It’s important to hire a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible so they can start doing their job. 

In such cases, the attorney is the one who will take care of the legal matters and advise the mourning family what to do next. The compensation claim might not bring back the lost life, but will surely help you to continue with your life.

  • 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.

  • Choosing the right attorney to represent you after an accident can make all the difference. This is no cliche. I recently experienced these words to live by first hand. After a tractor trailer rear ended me at high speed in 2017 I retained Allan Silverstein to handle my case. I quickly realized that bringing a lawsuit rapidly snowballs into a mountain of details that can make or break your results. Documents, case histories, doctor visits, bills, and lots of phone calls all need to be accurately kept track of if a successful outcome it to be attained. To complicate matters I reside in New York and the incident took place in New Jersey. Luckily, Allan was licensed in multiple states. I was fortunate to find Allan to handle this matter from the New York area. Armed with an accurate account of the facts Allan went to work on the difficult job of negotiating with the defending insurance company as well as my no fault carrier in order to obtain the best possible outcome for my set of circumstances. In a lawsuit communication is key and and events can be of a timely nature. Allan never failed to return my calls - usually the same day! He fought skillfully and respectfully to get me the best possible settlement. He is easy to deal with and a likeable down to earth guy. He always listened with compassion and respect to my issues. He guided me with objective understanding as well as a realistic analysis of the merits of my case. When we finally settled Allan got me a fair agreement beyond my expectations and negotiated with my doctors to make sure all my bills were paid. It was a great experience having Allan represent me. Quality work in any aspect of life is hard to find. Quality is what I got with Allan Silverstein. I highly recommend him if you find yourself in need of a personal injury attorney.

  • 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.
