29. Damages claimes

A damage claim, defined as the claim of damages, to a liable or insuring company, which result in financial loss from an associated victim party, are a common legal concept. In a damage claim, there is a victim and an alleged damaging party. The damage claim seeks to repair the damages of the victim party when the damaging party is at fault. Usually, damage claims come in the form of monetary payment. Other times, the damaging party is responsible for seeing that the damages are reversed or fixed. In either instance, the damaging party will most likely make a payment, either to the victim or to the service provider who fixes the damage. A full damage claim report will be needed to present the case to vendor, insurer, or court officials.

A damage claim, explained as the path to reparations when one has experienced damage at the fault of another, is common in the personal as well as the professional world. In business, a damage claim is particularly common. In many instances where two businesses are doing commerce with one another, they are connected through material as well as relational means. A damage claim can be made when one party is responsible for damage to the assets or business operations of another. For example, if a company promises to deliver raw materials at a certain time but does not follow through on the promise, the purchaser can claim damages in the form of lost income. Due to the fact that the reseller was not able to make a sale, and perhaps even lost a client of their own, the vendor would be responsible because they did not fulfill their end of the agreement to deliver.
