Law of Tort

The Law of Tort is a legal framework that addresses civil wrongs, where one person’s actions or negligence cause harm or loss to another. It provides a way for injured parties to seek compensation or remedy without needing to prove a criminal act. Examples include negligence, trespass, or defamation. Tort law encourages responsible behavior and helps resolve disputes fairly by holding parties accountable when their conduct harms others. It focuses on restoring the injured party’s position, typically through damages or injunctions, rather than punishing the wrongdoer criminally.
