Skilled Legal Representation for Businesses
The experienced attorneys at Stok Kon + Braverman provide capable guidance to businesses in the Fort Lauderdale area that may have tort claims against other individuals or entities. We work closely with our clients to fully assess the nature of a claim, the rights of the parties involved, and all possible remedies. Our lawyers handle a variety of business torts and can help you navigate the legal process when facing harm caused by another party’s actions.
Business torts are legal causes of action brought by an entity after it has been harmed in some way. Most of these claims arise after a company has sustained some type of loss, whether it is loss of a business relationship, a profit loss, or even the loss of future business opportunities. Some of the most common business torts include misrepresentation, tortious interference, and breach of fiduciary duty.
Misrepresentation
Also known as fraud, this cause of action may arise when an entity makes a false claim to induce a party to perform an alleged obligation. The party does perform but is then harmed by its reliance on the false representation of the other party. The plaintiff (the harmed party) would then bring an action for damages against the opposing party. With this type of tort, a party must be able to prove that the harm suffered was a direct result of relying on the opposing party’s misrepresentation. The same type of claim would also arise if a party purposely omitted a material and important fact during business negotiations, and the other party was harmed.
Tortious Interference
To succeed on a claim of contractual interference, the plaintiff entity and their attorney must prove that:
- A valid contract existed between the plaintiff and another party;
- The third party (defendant) knew of the contract;
- The defendant acted intentionally to persuade the other party to breach
the contract in some way; - There was an actual breach of contract by the party; and
- The plaintiff suffered damages due to the breach caused by the defendant.
The same elements must be proven for a claim of tortious interference regarding business relationships, but the plaintiff must prove that the third party acted intentionally to upset the business relationship between the two parties and the plaintiff was harmed because of the third party’s actions.
