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.
Under a contingency fee agreement, the attorney is compensated from the proceeds of your case (in other words, the long-term disability benefits you win). The attorney usually gets 25% to 40% of your settlement amount or monthly benefits. If you don't win your case, your attorney does not collect a fee. So for example, in a case where you win $30,000 in past-due benefits, your attorney might charge anywhere from $7,500 to $12,000.
