I just took a continuing ed engineering class to keep my license and some basic law was part of one of the modules, which according to Dunning Kruger makes me particularly susceptible to thinking I’m a expert in topics I know just a tad about.
That said, looking at the cool handout it says “So-called “soft” damages are recoverable for torts. Remedies for breach of contract are generally limited to specific performance and economic damages, unless a torts such as fraud are also implicated.”
