Dunnam & Dunnam lawyers routinely prosecute and defend claims of fraud in Central Texas. The definition of fraud is simple – it is a lie told in order to get money. However, proving and pleading fraud in a court can be challenging. That is why Central Texans chose Dunnam & Dunnam lawyers to help them with their fraud cases.
In order to prove fraud, a plaintiff must show that: (1) the defendant made a material representation that was false, (2) the defendant knew the representation was false or made it recklessly as a positive assertion without any knowledge of its truth, (3) the defendant intended to induce the plaintiff to act upon the representation, and (4) the plaintiff actually and justifiably relied on the representation, which caused the injury.
