Suing for fraud is mostly ideal after consulting a business litigation attorney. They can help clients with gathering evidence, which is the most crucial step of the process. In fraud cases, this evidence must align with the following:
- purposefully deceptive intentions and the defendant having full awareness of them;
- the deceit opposes concrete fact or materiality;
- reliance by the plaintiff on the misrepresentation due to the assumed trust between both parties; andÂ
- a statute of limitations, specifically of four years to make a fraud claim in Florida.
Once this evidence is gathered, you are equipped to move forward in filing a lawsuit.
