How Can I Prove Fraud Was Committed?

Fraud is made up of a multipart tort. Our Overland Park fraud lawyers will aid you in identifying whether or not fraud was committed. To prove that fraud was carried out, the plaintiff must show five aspects:

  1. The defendant made a false representation of a material fact while knowing that representation to be false.
  2. The person to whom the defendant made representation was made did not know that the representation was false.
  3. The defendant made the false representation with the intent that the plaintiff act upon it.
  4. The plaintiff, in fact, relied upon the false representation.
  5. The plaintiff’s reliance resulted in damage(s) to the plaintiff. 
Additionally, once the fraud elements have been identified,  the case must be conducted seriously and thoughtfully due to the gravity of the penalties that come with a conviction.
