What are the different types of tort?

Torts are wrongful acts that result in harm to an individual or their property. There are several different types of torts, including intentional torts, negligence torts, and strict liability torts. Intentional torts are actions that are done on purpose to harm someone, such as assault, battery, or false imprisonment. Negligence torts occur when a person fails to exercise reasonable care and causes harm to another person, such as in cases of car accidents or medical malpractice. Strict liability torts do not require a showing of intent or negligence, but hold individuals liable for harm caused by their actions or products, such as in cases of defective products or injuries caused by dangerous activities.
