Business torts cover wrongful acts that harm a business’s economic interests outside of a contract. Fraud, misrepresentation, conversion of property, and interference with business relationships are common examples.
Claims typically require evidence of damages, the defendant’s wrongful conduct, and a clear link between the conduct and the loss.
A business tort is a wrongful act that damages a business outside the boundaries of a contract. Fraud involves intentional deception for financial gain; conversion is the unauthorized taking or control of someone else’s property; tortious interference involves disrupting another party’s contractual or business relations.
