Description

Focusing on black-letter law concepts, Emond’s Basics of Tort Law provides a practical and succinct introduction to the various torts common to the practice of Canadian law, including their principles, rules, circumstances, and defences.

This primer focuses on three major areas: intentional torts, negligence, and strict and vicarious liability. The first major area focuses on torts committed intentionally against a person, property, or business. The second area focuses on unintentional torts, and specifically the first two elements required to prove negligence: duty of care and standard of care. This area includes a discussion of damages, causation, and more recent categories of negligence. The third area focuses on strict liability and vicarious liability where a party is held responsible without proof of negligence.

Written for pre-law undergraduates, law students, and individuals considering law school, this primer provides an overview and summary of tort law principles, serving as the perfect jumping-off point for further study of tort doctrine and theory.
