Understanding Business Torts

Business torts stand as a pivotal type in business litigation cases, encompassing various wrongful acts that can gravely harm business entities. These torts are not just legal transgressions; they are actions that can lead to substantial financial losses and long-term damage to a company’s market standing and reputation.

Business torts cover a broad spectrum of issues. Intellectual property infringement, for instance, involves the unauthorized use of a company’s patented technology or creative works, which can strip away its competitive edge. Similarly, unfair competition, such as false advertising or trade libel, can skew the market playing field, affecting a company’s ability to attract and retain customers.

Another critical aspect of business torts is the breach of fiduciary duty. This occurs when an individual, often someone in a position of trust within the company, acts contrary to the interests of the business, potentially leading to significant financial and operational setbacks.

What Our Clients Say

I was referred to Robert by Ruge Law Group when they were actually KRG Law Group. They handled a car accident I was involved in. This was a business debt collection levied against our company by an employee’s debt collector. He and his colleagues handled it flawlessly. He and his staff are beyond impressive and do everything they can to take the cases brought before them. I came back to them with a very big case. I don’t want to dox anyone in the office other than the name on the business. However, they handled it in the most professional, respectful, and caring way possible. J, you did an amazing job and due diligence! Robert, I wanted to personally thank you for representing us in the past and in the future. You and your paralegals are above Top Shelf. This firm is straight Louis XIII.

I hired Drew to assist with a business dispute that I encountered with a fellow member of the Florida Bar. Drew was very professional and was able to negotiate a positive settlement for me.

I hired Mr. Patterson (due to another attorney's referral) to handle what I viewed as a complex case. Because of Mr. Patterson's knowledge of the applicable laws and forethought of opposing counsel's strategy, I'm happy to say the outcome was "excellent." I generally do not post but Mr. Patterson absolutely deserves a well appreciated applause for his legal performance. That said, I also referred him to my sister which also had successful results. Thank you, Mr. Patterson.

As always, you (and BK) are rockstars! I couldn't be more grateful to have you both on my side. I appreciate all that you both do.

You are amazing! Thank you so much! I’ll give you a 5-star review, you’re the best!
