Negligent misrepresentation occurs when someone provides false information without intending to deceive, but fails to exercise reasonable care in verifying its accuracy. Examples include a real estate agent falsely claiming a property has no structural issues, a financial advisor providing inaccurate investment advice, or a manufacturer misrepresenting the safety features of a product.
