One Killed in New York State Thruway Collision

One Killed in New York State Thruway Collision
Calendar icon March 22, 2021

One person was killed in a New York State Thruway collision between a car and a tractor trailer in Rockland County on Friday morning, March 12, state police said.

The collision happened in the early morning hours, around 5 a.m. on the northbound side of I-87, just south of Exit 14B. The truck came to rest on its side with serious damages to the cab. The white sedan had damage to the driver’s side door. During the investigation, the police closed the highway for several hours. 

The police are still investigating how the New York State Thruway collision happened. 

If you were involved in a crash, no matter how it happened or whose fault it was, it’s important to seek legal support as soon as possible. After the medical help, you receive, be sure to call a car accident attorney and tell them about your case.

Having an attorney who works on the case (gathering evidence, seeking the police report, guiding you and advising you) will significantly help you when you decide to file for a compensation claim.

Insurance companies aren’t very fond of paying high amounts just like that. They will use anything you failed to do (lack of documents, possible mistake you did while driving when the crash happened) to offer a low settlement or deny it entirely.

Our team at Cellino Law has experience with such cases. We know how important it is for accident victims to get a decent claim that will help them cover their expenses. Not everyone knows that you could negotiate with the insurance company (and not everyone knows how to do this). Allow an attorney to help you get your settlement.

For any question you have about your accident or about losing a loved one in such circumstances, contact our office and speak with an experienced New York car accident attorney

  • Cellino Law is an amazing firm with a great team. I worked with Greg Pajak and his assistant, Tracey Falconer. I cannot express enough how dedicated they are. The personal attention I received was excellent; they were always available to help with questions and concerns and put me at ease in the unknown territory I found myself in. I highly recommend them to anyone needing representation. A huge thank you to them for all they accomplished for me!

  • 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.

  • I highly recommend Cellino Law to anyone involved in a car crash. I worked with Michael Lovecchio, and had a wonderful experience given the circumstances. He was very attentive, and got the best possible outcome I could have wanted.

  • 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.
