In many cases it will be a criminal case. There are opportunities to bring civil suits against those that have committed forgery. There must be damages to make the claim.

Yes, forgery can be considered a tort, specifically the tort of fraud. Forgery involves deceitfully altering documents or signatures with the intent to deceive, which can lead to civil liability if someone is harmed as a result.
