Tortuous liability arises from the breach of a duty primarily fixed by law; this duty is towards persons generally and its breach is redressible by an action for unliquidated damages.”
In laymen's terms, tort is a civil wrong or breach of a duty to another person on which courts, based on fault, impose liability and it is mainly concerned with providing compensation for personal injury and property damage caused by negligence.
Negligence is defined as “failure to do or recognize something that a reasonable person would do or recognize, or do something that a reasonable person would not do”. Negligence protects an individual against economic loss, property and personal injury. However, the claimant must prove the defendant's negligence with a preponderance of evidence.
