Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! This episode is part of the series "Law Every 1L Should Know", and today we're focusing on torts. We briefly go through a review of the intentional torts, and we focus more thoroughly on negligence, since it is the most heavily tested topic in 1L Torts. To illustrate how negligence is tested on an exam, we go through a sample scenario.
