  • The Negligence mnemonic helps you memorize duty, standard of care, breach, actual and proximate causes, harm to Plaintiff, defenses, imputed liabilities and remedies. Intentional Torts mnemonic helps you memorize body, emotions and property (real and personal) including assault, battery, false imprisonment, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligent infliction of emotional distress, trespass to land, private and public nuisance, trespass to chattels, and finally defenses and privileges.
  • The Economic Torts mnemonic helps you memorize fraudulent misrepresentation, interference with contract, and breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The Defamation mnemonic helps you memorize all of the elements of defamation including defamatory statement, concerning the Plaintiff, publication and republication, damages, defenses, and constitutional constraints. 
  • The Strict Liability mnemonic helps you memorize its elements including duty, proper Plaintiff, breach, actual and proximate cause, harm to Plaintiff, defenses, imputed liabilities and remedies. The Strict Products Liability is very similar to Products Liability, but focuses on express warranties and implied warranties.

How It Works


The Privacy Torts mnemonic helps you memorize invasion of privacy, false light, and intrusion upon seclusion, private affairs and their common elements. Imputed Liabilities are joint tortfeasors that either act in concert to commit a tort, act independently but cause a single indivisible tortious injury, or share responsibility for a tort. It is a mnemonic that helps you memorize its elements including vicarious liability, joint and severable liability and remedies.
