Suing for the tort of fraud involves a legal action taken by an individual or entity that claims to have suffered damages due to another party's intentional deception. To succeed in such a lawsuit, the plaintiff must typically prove that the defendant made a false statement or representation, knew it was false, intended for the plaintiff to rely on it, and that the plaintiff did rely on it, resulting in harm or damages. Fraud can take various forms, including misrepresentation, omission of critical information, or deceitful conduct. Successful plaintiffs may be entitled to compensatory damages and, in some cases, punitive damages.
