A tort, in common law jurisdictions, is a civil wrong[1] that unfairly causes someone else to suffer loss or harm resulting in legal liability for the person who commits the tortious act.
Civil tort claims may be classified into three basic categories: Intentional torts, negligence, and strict liability torts. Each of these is associated with different standards of proof, remedies, and defenses. The vast majority of tort claims are based on negligence.
