I've had a Dynex 32 LCD for 2 1/2 yrs home use. No picture, but I hear sound. I googled it and found it to be a common problem. Best Buy wants $150 just to look at it. Other brands last longer than this. Just don't hassle yourself with brand.
In Minnesota, an attorney may charge a fee of 25% of the first $4,000 won from the workers' comp insurance company, and 20% of the next $60,000, with a total cap of $13,000 per injury.
The typical personal injury lawyer will charge a contingency fee to handle your case. Some state statutes limit the percentage that a lawyer can take as a contingency fee. Most contingency fees are between 33 and 40%, but you can always try to negotiate a reduced or alternative agreement. In the majority of cases, a personal injury lawyer will receive 33.33% (or one third) of any settlement. For example, if you receive an offer of $30,000 from the wrongdoer or his insurance company in your case, you will receive $20,000 and your lawyer will receive $10,000.
