Two women were killed in a Brooklyn hit-and-run accident on December 14. The fatal crash took place at Flatlands and Pennsylvania Avenue in East New York.

According to the police, a gray BMW was going southbound on Pennsylvania Avenue when it hit a Toyota Camry that was going east on Flatlands Avenue.

The driver and passenger of the Toyota Camry were taken to NYC Health and Hospitals/Kings County where they were pronounced dead.

After the crash, two unidentified male occupants of the BMW escaped the location on foot. The New York Police Department’s Highway Collision Squad is investigating the crash. According to an eyewitness the BMW was going at a high speed. 

For now, the identities of the victims are not released and are pending proper family notifications. 

Fatal accidents are never easy. Losing a family member in such an accident is a tragedy. In case it was a hit-and-run, things are even more complex since there is no liable driver.

However, if this is your case, don’t lose hope and don’t give up. It’s essential that you seek legal help from a car accident attorney.

Your lawyer would gather the evidence, seek surveillance camera footage if necessary, and would collaborate with the police. 

If you were injured in an accident, besides the medical help, seek help from a lawyer. Not everyone is entirely familiar with the legal labyrinths and the whole thing may make things confusing.

Many people wonder if the insurance company would pay them for their injuries. To avoid any risks of getting underpaid or not getting the claim, our team at Cellino Law is here to help you with your case. We offer you a free evaluation of your case.

  • 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.

  • 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 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.
