A business tort is a wrongful act that harms a business’s operations or economic interests. Unlike pure contract disputes, it involves wrongful behavior like fraud or interference with business relations, which may allow for damages beyond contract remedies.
Damages in fraud and conversion cases can include compensatory, incidental, and, where applicable, punitive damages, as allowed by California law. Evidence of financial loss and disrupted operations is key for recovery.
California generally imposes certain deadlines, known as statutes of limitations, for business tort claims. Working with a local attorney helps ensure timely filing and proper preservation of evidence.

Many cases resolve through early settlement or mediation, but some proceed to trial if a favorable resolution isn’t reached.
