Assault is when someone attempts or threatens to physically harm another person. Battery is when someone actually physically harms another person. Conversion is when someone unlawfully interferes with another person's personal property. Trespass is when someone unlawfully enters onto another person's land. These are just some of the most common intentional torts; there are many others that exist under tort law.

This can be difficult to prove, which is why negligence and strict product liability are more commonly used in civil lawsuits.

For example, if someone intentionally vandalizes another person's property, the victim could sue for damages under the tort of trespass. If you have been the victim of an intentional tort, it is important to understand your legal options so that you can make the best decision for your case.
