Intentional Harm To A Person Or Property

---

Personal injury may be caused by a person acting with the deliberate intent to injure another person. This kind of conduct may be referred to as "malicious," "purposeful", or "knowingly." A person who acts intentionally and causes harm as a result will be liable for the harm caused. When someone intentionally harms another person or his or her property, an intentional tort is committed. In general, intentional torts can be classified into two groups: intentional torts against people and intentional torts against property. Among the most common intentional torts that are encountered are the following:

• Assault
• Battery
• False Imprisonment
• Infliction of Distress
• Fraud/Misrepresentation
• Trespass
  
• Trespass to Chattels
• Conversion
• Defamation

In all matters involving personal injury it is essential that measures be taken promptly to preserve evidence, investigate the incident in question, and to file a lawsuit prior to the deadline imposed by the statute of limitations.
