Civil Theft is a Reality

One cause of action I consider to be extremely underutilized is Civil Theft.  It is a cause of action created by statute.  That is, the basis for the claim comes from proving the elements of the statute versus elements created through case law.
 
A major plaintiff's upside to a Civil Theft claim is the availability of punitive damages.  By statute, those damages can be added.  In other causes of action separate evidence and a motion need to be brought in order to add punitive damages.
 
To address this possible claim further, I am here to talk with you and assess the merits of your case.
