Which of the following is an example of tort law?

Negligence
Contract Dispute
Breach of Contract
Personal Injury

The correct answer is: Negligence

An example of tort law is the legal area that deals with civil wrongdoings, where one party causes harm or injury to another party. Negligence, personal injury, and intentional torts are all examples of tort law. It is important to note that contract disputes and breaches of contract fall under contract law, which is a separate legal area. So, although contract disputes and breaches can also result in harm or injury to a person or entity, they are not considered examples of tort law. Therefore, A is the correct answer as it is the only option that falls under tort law.
