A business tort is a wrongful act that harms a company’s economic interests. Fraud involves intentional deception for financial gain, while conversion refers to the wrongful taking or control of someone else’s property. Interference with business relationships occurs when a third party disrupts an existing contract or business connection.
To prove these claims, a plaintiff must show the wrongful act, intent or negligence, causation, and damages. The legal process typically involves initial assessments, pleadings, evidence gathering, negotiation or mediation, and, if needed, litigation or arbitration to determine remedies.
Common terms used in business tort cases include fraud, misrepresentation, breach, damages, injunction, and trade secret. Understanding these terms helps clients participate meaningfully in case strategy and decision making.
