Kipnuk is a census-designated place (CDP) in Bethel Census Area, Alaska, United States. At the 2000 census the population was 644. Kipnuk consists mostly Yupik speaking Eskimos; the name means a "bend" referring to the bend in the Kukaktlik River where it is situated. The original settlement was situated along "Nukatlpiartsunarli", a slough feeding into the Kukaktlik. This slough was thus named, because it was hard to detect during the Eskimo Wars. It was ideal for ambushing "Nukatlpiaks" or warrior/providers.
What is personal injury law?
Personal injury includes injuries to the body, mind or emotions, as opposed to an injury to property. If the negligence of another person can be proved, the person who is injured may be entitled to monetary compensation from that person who was negligent. Attorneys often represent clients on a contingency basis, in which the attorneys fee is a percentage of the compensation the plaintiff receives, payable when the case is resolved. Cases involving people who have suffered an injury for which someone else (an individual or business) may be legally liable -- may include injuries caused by car accidents, medical malpractice, dog bites, slip and fall incidents, and emotional distress.
