A business tort qualifies if wrongful conduct causes economic harm to a business. California law requires proving elements such as duty, breach, causation, and damages. If the elements are established, you may be entitled to compensatory damages and, in some cases, injunctive relief.
Statutes of limitations vary by claim. In California, timing can depend on the nature of the conduct and the type of harm. Consult with an attorney to determine deadlines and preserve your rights.
Damages may include actual losses, lost profits, and in some situations, restitution. Some cases may also seek injunctive relief to prevent ongoing harm.
