Dupée & Monroe is a Goshen, New York law firm committed to helping injured construction workers gain full compensation for work-related injuries.

However, most construction workers do not know that personal injuries that result from an unsafe workplace give rise to a separate third party injury claim.
Experienced Orange County, New York Construction Accident Lawyers
Construction sites are dangerous places by nature. Often multiple contractors and subcontractors are working on the same job site. If you are injured on a construction site as a result of the actions or inactions of a contractor, sub-contractor, general contractor, or work-site owner other than your employer, you most likely have a third party construction accident claim. Third party construction site accident claims can be based on personal injuries, dangerous premises, dangerous products, or on-the-job auto accidents.
At Dupée & Monroe, our New York construction accidents lawyers have extensive experience handling cases involving:
- Scaffolding accidents

You are entitled to work at a safe construction site
A worker injured on a construction site is entitled to state and federal worker protections including provisions in the New York Industrial Code, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and New York Labor Law Sections 240 and 241, known as the "safe place to work" or the "scaffold" laws. Our New York construction accident lawyers are familiar with the various construction regulations that deal with elevators, hoists, scaffolds, lighting, floor openings, and ladders. We work closely with workers' compensation attorneys to look at all aspects of your case so we can maximize your third party construction site accident claim.
