Owners, management companies, and lessees all have a duty of care to keep their premises in a safe condition for those using their property. The property may be an apartment building, office building, warehouse, factory, or any other type of building. Accidents within or outside these premises can occur on floors, stairways, sidewalks, etc. Failure to keep the premises safe can lead to premises accidents, such as slip and fall, trip and fall, or workplace accidents, where individuals are injured and damages are caused.
