Best Answer

A tort lawyer is one who specializes in bringing personal injury lawsuits like auto accident, trip and fall, medical malpractice and other similar cases. Tort lawyers get adept in those areas and stay away from other types of law like probate, contracts, real estate and other areas.
In law, a tort is a wrongdoing caused by another party's negligence or wrongdoing. A tort lawyer is someone who represents people who have been affected by a tort.
