Fraud is a deliberate deception intended to obtain a financial gain or property. Misrepresentation can be a false statement or concealment of a material fact. Proving fraud involves showing knowledge of falsity, intent to deceive, reliance on the statement, and resulting damages. Misrepresentation requires a false statement of fact and a causal link to your losses.
In California, most fraud and misrepresentation claims have a statute of limitations that typically runs within a few years from discovery. Different claims may have different deadlines, so timing matters. Because local rules depend on the facts and type of claim, consult promptly to assess deadlines and preserve evidence.
Compensation may include actual damages to cover losses, restitution for misappropriated funds, and, in some cases, consequential or incidental damages. In certain situations a rescission or disgorgement of profits may be available, and courts may award attorney’s fees under applicable rules.
