Tort - This word, which means "wrong" in French, simply refers to a wrongful act in which injury occurs to another, whether intentional or accidental. Tort law is one of the largest categories of law practiced by attorneys worldwide and this area of law results in more litigation than any other category. Some "intentional torts" may also be considered crimes.
