The city's king of slip-and-fall lawsuits, Court Street lawyer Sanford Rubenstein, has himself for a client after taking a spill on some mop water in the lobby of a Downtown Brooklyn office building, court papers say.
The colorful lawyer, whose firm Rubenstein & Rynecki boasts on its website that its lawyers "have more than three decades of experience helping victims of slip and fall accidents, said an MRI revealed he suffered two tears to his meniscus and a hematoma in his quadriceps.
"There was an employee of the building who was mopping the lobby floor of the building, unbeknownst to me because there were no signs or warnings. I took a horrible fall and fortunately it was captured on the building surveillance video," Rubenstein told The Post of his lawsuit filed in Brooklyn Supreme Court.
"It certainly puts me in the shoes of the victim as opposed to representing the victim," said Rubenstein, 69, who acknowledged the irony in filing for himself the kind of suit he has filed for countless clients.
"If you slip and fall on New York premises, it costs nothing to schedule a free consultation with an injury lawyer at Rubenstein & Rynecki to discuss your case and learn how we can help," Rubenstein's website exhorts potential clients.
"While the plaintiff, Sanford Rubenstein was walking in the interior of the aforesaid premises … was caused to slip and fall due to an accumulation of water and/or liquid thereat," the suit states.
Rubenstein's firm has won some big-bucks awards for clients, including $3 million for a slip-and-fall suit filed by a Federal Express deliveryman who fell on a wet floor outside a Broadway producer's office, according to his website.
