Is a corporation responsible for damage done by their employee to someones personal property?

In general, yes, a corporation is responsible for damage done by its employee to someone's personal property. This is because employees are considered to be acting on behalf of the corporation when they are performing their job duties. As a result, the corporation is liable for any damages that the employee causes while on the job.

There are a few exceptions to this rule. For example, if an employee intentionally damages someone's property, the corporation may not be liable. Additionally, if the employee was not acting within the scope of their employment when they caused the damage, the corporation may not be liable.

If you have been damaged by an employee of a corporation, you may want to speak to an attorney to discuss your options for recovering compensation.
