enrichment in law

In law, "enrichment" occurs when one person benefits or gains at the expense of another, without a valid legal reason. It often relates to cases where someone is unfairly enriched—such as receiving goods, money, or services—while the other person suffers a loss. Legal principles seek to address this imbalance by potentially requiring the enriched party to compensate or restore the deprived party, ensuring fairness and preventing unjust gains. Enrichment law helps correct unfair situations where no formal contract or agreement exists, promoting justice in property and financial matters.
