TORT

Tort law governs civil wrongs that cause harm or loss, allowing individuals to seek compensation for damages. It encompasses various claims, including negligence, defamation, trespass, nuisance, and strict liability. The primary objective of tort law is to provide legal remedies, such as monetary compensation or injunctions, to restore victims to their original position before the wrongful act occurred. Torts can be intentional (e.g., assault, false imprisonment), negligent (e.g., car accidents, medical malpractice), or based on strict liability (e.g., defective products, environmental hazards). Whether you’re a victim seeking justice or a business aiming to mitigate legal risks, understanding tort law is crucial in protecting your rights and liabilities.
