Answer preview

Tort law is a civil violation of a person’s rights by another person. These violations may include emotional, economic, physical, reputational injuries, invasion of one’s privacy, and interference with one’s property. Tort law facilitates compensation for incurred damages and discourages other people from repeating the same offense.
