Atty. Evan Granowitz was hailed a ‘Southern California Rising Star’ two years in a row (2009 and 2010) by Super Lawyers magazine. This honor is reserved only for the best lawyers in Southern California under the age of 40. He is admitted to practice in the State of California and the United States District Court—in the Northern District and the Central District of California.

Tortious interference, also referred to as intentional interference with contractual relations, happens when an individual deliberately violates the claimant’s contractual agreements or other business relationships. This form of tort is generally classified into two categories: one specific to contractual relationships, and the other specific to business relationships or activities.

According to litigators, like Evan Granowitz, the tort of interference with contractual relations authorizes an individual to recover damages based upon a declaration that another individual obstructed their contractual relations. The elements of an intentional interference with contractual relations claim include:

  • A valid contract between claimant and a third party
  • Defendant’s knowledge of this contract
  • Defendant’s intentional acts designed to induce a breach or disruption of the contractual relationship
  • Actual breach or disruption of the contractual relationship
  • Resulting damage

To be considered tortious, a defendant’s actions must significantly infringe the standard of fair competition and free expression, such as a company influencing a bank not to provide a competitor with a capital loan.

Evan Granowitz and the typical elements that comprise embezzlement

Atty. Evan Granowitz and other legal experts help protect businesses from civil wrongs committed against them such as embezzlement.

Embezzlement is a crime involving fraudulent misappropriation of assets by a person, like an employee, to whom the assets have been entrusted. In the U.S., embezzlement is a statutory offense since the definition of the crime varies from statute to statute. Statutes governing the offense differ throughout the states. To know what elements comprise the offense, it is necessary to examine the particular statute applicable.

The most common elements of embezzlement are the following:
1. The property or asset must be owned by a person other than the accused. For instance, an employer or principal.

Atty. Evan Granowitz is one of the lawyers at Wolf Group L.A. He specializes in business torts, contract disputes, and insurance coverage disputes.

2. The property or asset must be converted subsequent to the defendant's original and lawful possession of it. Conversion happens when there’s unauthorized use or control of someone else's wealth.
3. The accused must be in a position of trust so that the property is held by him following a fiduciary duty, an obligation entrusted to someone when he agrees to act as an agent on another person’s behalf.
4. The intent to defraud the property owner at the time of the conversion is evident.
