Torts can be classified based on the type of harm caused, such as intentional torts (like assault and battery) and negligence torts (like medical malpractice). They can also be classified based on the legal remedy sought, such as personal injury torts (like car accidents) and property damage torts (like trespassing).


Do remedies differ for negligent torts and intentional torts?

You actually approach torts of negligence and intentional torts in much the same way. you still have to prove the four main elements of any tort. Beyond that-for an intentional tort-you must prove that it was intentional rather than negligent but that would be the only difference.


Types of torts?

There are three main types of torts: negligence, intentional torts, and strict liability torts. Negligence occurs when someone fails to exercise reasonable care, resulting in harm to another person. Intentional torts involve deliberate actions that cause harm, such as assault or defamation. Strict liability torts apply when harm is caused by a particular activity or product, regardless of fault.


What is the principal difference between intentional torts and torts of negligence?

The main difference is in the intention behind the actions. Intentional torts are committed purposefully to harm or interfere with someone's rights, while negligence involves a failure to exercise reasonable care that results in harm. Intentional torts require intent, while negligence does not.
