Elements typically include a misrepresentation, knowledge of falsity, intent to deceive, justifiable reliance, and resulting damages. The process usually involves evidence gathering, negotiation, mediation, and, if needed, litigation.
Key terms explained for quick reference in fraud and misrepresentation matters in California.
Fraud is a deliberate deception intended to obtain an unfair or unlawful gain, causing harm to another party.
