Some People Have All The Luck

Man, why can’t I be on a Staten Island Ferry:

Within hours of the Staten Island Ferry crash last weekend, Court Street lawyer Sanford Rubenstein was on the national news discussing the possibility of litigation ensuing from this accident.

Because I certainly wouldn’t want to be a patient at St. Vincent’s:

The closing of St. Vincent’s Hospital has left yet another wounded group in the lurch — hundreds of New Yorkers who are suing the hospital for medical malpractice.

More than 260 people pursuing malpractice and negligence claims against the bankrupt hospital are in legal limbo.

With St. Vincent’s assets going to Bankruptcy Court, the victims may never see a penny in damages, sources told the Daily News.
