Most people know what a contract is and have heard the term “tort,” but few truly understand the difference until they’re in the middle of a legal mess. As an attorney, I break it down like this: contract law deals with broken promises, while tort law covers wrongful actions that cause harm. If someone didn’t hold up their end of a deal—or hurt you without one—I help you figure out the path forward. Whether it’s unpaid work, property damage, or emotional distress, the legal strategy depends on knowing where your case truly fits.
