Damages

“Damages are monetary compensation awarded by courts to compensate parties who have suffered financial harm due to unlawful actions, including government overreach such as illegal tariff impositions.”

When federal agencies impose unlawful tariffs or trade restrictions, affected businesses can seek compensatory damages to recover actual losses including lost profits, increased costs, and operational disruptions.

Courts may award different types of damages including direct economic losses, consequential damages from business disruption, and in some cases, legal fees. Documentation of financial harm is essential for successful recovery.
