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.
Mannford is a town in Creek, Pawnee, and Tulsa counties in the northeastern part of the U.S. state of Oklahoma. The population was 2,095 at the 2000 census. A bedroom community of Tulsa sitting on Lake Keystone, this town is known as the Striped Bass Capital of the World. The town nearly became extinct in the early 1960s when the entire town had to move due to the creation of Lake Keystone. Mannford is also known for its bigfoot sightings. Many hunters have been quoted as seeing the apelike creature roaming the landscape.
