A business tort is an unlawful act that causes financial loss to a business outside of a breach of contract. Fraud involves intentional misrepresentation; conversion is the wrongful taking or use of someone else’s property for your own benefit; and interference occurs when a third party disrupts a business relationship.
Essential elements include duty, breach, causation, and damages. The legal process typically proceeds from case assessment and investigation through pleadings, discovery, evidence gathering, settlement negotiations, and, when necessary, trial and remedies.
