Understanding Tortious Interference in Naples, FL

Tortious interference refers to an area of law that allows a plaintiff to bring a claim against another party (the tortfeasor) for damages when the defendant has allegedly wrongfully and intentionally interfered with the plaintiff’s business relationships or contractual relationships.

Examples of tortious interference include:

  • Making false claims about a business or commercial entity
  • Failing to perform an obligation, such as delivering goods, resulting in the plaintiff being unable to fulfill a contract
  • Negative interference with a transaction or business deal

These are just some examples of tortious interference; any time a third party negatively interferes with a business relationship or contractual relationship, this is an example of tortious interference.

Establishing a Case for Tortious Interference in Naples

Tortious interference relies heavily on intent—to have grounds for a tortious interference action, you will likely need to establish the intent of the third party to influence or interfere with an existing business relationship or contract.

Our Naples tortious interference attorneys work to establish the following elements:

  • An advantageous business partnership or contractual relationship existed between the plaintiff (our client) and another party
  • The tortfeasor (the third party against whom the claim is brought) was aware of the existence of the business relationship or contractual relationship
  • The tortfeasor intentionally interfered with the business/contractual relationship in an effort to induce breach of contract or disrupt the relationship
  • The tortfeasor’s actions were wrongful
  • The plaintiff sustained measurable damages as a result of the tortfeasor’s actions/conduct
