The construction landscape in the Bronx is rapidly evolving, from residential developments in Mott Haven to large-scale infrastructure projects near the Grand Concourse. With this growth comes significant legal exposure. In Bronx County, the "Scaffold Law" (New York Labor Law 240/241) imposes strict liability on property owners and contractors for gravity-related injuries.
If an employee is injured on a job site, they may collect workers' compensation and subsequently sue the property owner. The owner then seeks indemnification from you, the contractor. This is known as a "Third-Party Action Over" claim. Action Over Coverage was founded in 2024 to ensure that local businesses are not left vulnerable to these multi-million dollar lawsuits. Without specific Action Over Insurance, your company could be forced to pay these claims out of pocket.
Many standard General Liability Insurance ("services/general-liability-insurance/") policies marketed to Bronx contractors contain a hidden trap: the Action Over Insurance Exemption. This exclusion specifically removes coverage for claims involving injuries to your own employees.
At Action Over Coverage, we perform a deep-dive SEO evaluation of your current policy language to identify these dangerous gaps. We specialize in providing comprehensive coverage that overrides these exemptions, ensuring your business is protected whether you are working in The Bronx, Queens, or Manhattan.
While we serve all 5 Boroughs, our roots are in the local community. Headquartered at 20 Woodsbridge Road in Katonah, NY, Action Over Coverage understands the specific underwriting requirements of New York insurers. We provide more than just a policy; we provide a partnership built on transparency and specialized knowledge of the Bronx legal environment.
Protecting your Bronx-based business requires a strategy that goes beyond "basic" coverage. Our team is available at 914-729-5675 to discuss your specific risk profile and help you secure a policy that satisfies the most demanding project owners and general contractors.
