I had a great experience with the way Josh Banks handled my car accident case. You all have a client for life!
I’m so grateful to Mullen & Mullen Law Firm for handling my car accident case! Even though the other driver was uninsured, Josh guided me through the entire process with professionalism and care. He kept me informed, answered all my questions, and fought hard to get me a settlement. I truly appreciate the hard work and dedication from the team — they made a stressful situation much easier. I highly recommend them to anyone needing help after an accident.Edit: I forgot to mention Jailene! She was incredibly helpful over the past year, keeping me informed and updated throughout the entire process. She answered all my questions promptly and made sure I was always in the loop of what was going on. I truly appreciate her support as my case assistant and highly recommend her!
Josh represented me after a car accident. Mullen & Mullen did an amazing job and kept me updated throughout the case. From the first initial call to the end of the case I was taken care of.
I hired Mullen & Mullen following a motor vehicle collision. I could not be more pleased with the Dallas personal injury lawyers I selected. They are the real deal! I was always kept in the loop on case developments. My attorneys sent the at-fault liability carrier multiple demands to make them agree to pay the policy limits. My lawyers also sent my own insurance company several demands to get them to offer me nearly the policy limits. Many attorneys would have given up and recommended filing a lawsuit, but Mullen & Mullen kept pounding the insurance companies until they did the right thing. This saved me a tremendous amount of money and time. I'm so grateful I found ethical, tenacious, and skilled attorneys to represent me. Mullen & Mullen gets my highest recommendation if you need a Dallas car accident attorney.C. Burnett
I loved the personalized approach they had for my case. I never felt left out or like I was one of their several cases. They answered each and every query patiently and provided a solution. I trusted them and never regretted it. You can trust them with any of your injury claims, and you'll not regret it.
Mullen & Mullen has been amazing. I used them after hearing about them on a Christian radio station, and that says a lot right there. Mr. Banks was my attorney and kept me inform through the entire process of getting my rear end collision settled. The entire team was professional and informative from the first call through my medical treatments and then dealing with the insurance companies. I will use them again if I ever have another accident.
I Recently completed a Claim/ Settlement with The Help Of the Awesome team at Mullins &Mullins! It was quite the process, but the Team at Mullins &Mullins made it a seamless process for me..They Took Care of all of the work, and keep me updated as to the progress. Josh was my adjuster He was friendly informative and knowledgeable about how everything goes. And he kept me updated, as we all throughout the process..I hope I'm never in a another accident, But if So I have Mullins &Mullins on SpeedDial now and wouldn't hesitate to call back!
Thank you Josh for all the hard work you did on my car accident case! Mullen and Mullen did a fantastic job for me!
Thank yoi Josh for my car accident case. Every employees are helpful.
The gratitude and respect I have for this Law Firm cannot be expressed enough. I genuinely do not know where I would be without their authentic care for their clients and the ethical nature in which they practice while keeping it like a "family" experience.I have never experienced an auto accident (not at fault) nor could have imagined what could develop several days later until ending up in the ER very symptomatic. Fortunately, an acquaintance who took me to the ER did know what was occurring and reached out to Mullen and Mullen on my behalf. I can only say a sincere thank you to the very soft spoken, kind, Investigator who came to my home as by then I was too symptomatic to barely articulate or be welcoming.I had changed from "I'm fine" to literally not being able to think or advocate for myself.I was assured Mullen & Mullen Law Firm was reputable, but what I found was they go far beyond anything I could have imagined.I was set up immediately with the medical care and specialists needed, imaging, etc. Everything was taken care of for me and with excellent medical specialists and the care I needed over the long run. To know that the medical professionals were just that - legitimate and excellent professionals who did have the credentials, expertise, and experience to provide me with everything they could towards a recovery. Unbeknownst to me, I was facing such complexities that turned into an unimaginable situation for me. There were so many complicating issues that continued to present that it has taken someone like Greg to understand the physical, psychosocial, and numerous factors making for a truly unique & complex situation. I wish I could express enough how much Greg did to get me to where I am now and with a plan for recovery, as Greg's unchanging calm professional yet warm, steady, solid, reliable, and kind empathetic nature has meant the world to me. Greg always responded to my calls, voicemails, texts, even weekends, and walked me through all the stress and the process as well. Everyone I had contact with at Mullen & Mullen were so very gracious. I knew nothing; and I appreciate Greg explaining along the way, never "promising" anything; yet, in the end due to his advocacy I know that I know that any benefit that was available for me was provided and I am grateful for his representation of me. Greg truly understood and was beyond exceptional to be able to explain my complex case to others. I could not have made it to where I am even now without Greg who is the consummate professional and genuinely cares. So much I could say that it has been hard to say anything frankly as it's been such a stressful and emotional time that Greg was there for me. It was also a refreshing experience to see each detail outlined openly, honestly, which demonstrated that this law firm is just that: HONEST. Mullen & Mullen does deserve 5 Stars. They prioritize their clients with authenticity. They do not take advantage of anyone in the process. PLEASE know this IS a respectable, honorable law firm whom will treat you like family and you CAN trust.

We have access to state-of-the-art diagnostic technology through well-established relationships with medical doctors, surgeons, physical therapists, chiropractors, neurologists, counselors, and other healthcare providers in the entire DFW Metroplex. You receive the quality medical attention you need from local providers near where you live or work. These providers specialize in treating people hurt in accidents of all kinds and they know how to properly document injuries to meet the legal burden of proof in your personal injury case. These providers are also willing to delay billing collections until after your case is resolved so you can focus on recovering without additional stress. Physicians that don’t routinely treat accident victims as part of their practice usually turn away patients over fear of being involved in the legal process or fear of health insurance companies refusing to pay accident-related healthcare bills. Please call us at 214-747-5240 for a free consultation and some advice.

Even if you don’t have health insurance or can’t afford your deductible, Mullen & Mullen will secure you the quality healthcare and state-of-the art diagnostics you deserve with no upfront out of pocket costs.

Shane, Joseph and Regis have almost 100 years of combined experience practicing personal injury law. That doesn’t even include the combined experience of the attorneys that serve as of-counsel to Mullen & Mullen at no additional cost to our clients. Our firm continues to evolve, but we never forget our Core Values. We do the right thing, handle cases the way we would want our own case handled, and we truly listen to clients. We have over 40 years of local knowledge, and that matters!

Some lawyers forget that they represent the client, but we never have. Our legal team will make YOU the priority. You are the boss, and we will respond quickly to your requests for case updates and assistance. We guarantee that when you need to speak to your counsel, you will speak directly to your counsel, not to a paralegal or secretary, because that’s the way it should be.

Most firms hire an investigator to help develop evidence on your case and charge you back for that service. Our firm, however, has 2 full-time accident investigators on staff and we offer their services to you for free. This is another way we will maximize your compensation.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Video footage is worth a lot more. Our in-house videographer allows us to capture the true impact the accident has on your life beyond mere words on a piece of paper.

When necessary, Mullen & Mullen Law Firm uses cutting edge technology like 3D imaging videos to fully demonstrate the extent of our clients’ injuries to the insurance companies. This also helps maximize the value of your claim.

Mullen & Mullen’s attorneys live and work right here in Dallas, and always have. We believe in paying our success forward by helping people in the North Texas community, and are dedicated to supporting these local charities.

IS YOUR CLAIM VIABLE?

Most of the claims we accept are settled, as is the case with many lawyers. However, what sets Mullen & Mullen apart from other personal injury attorneys in Fort Worth is the enhanced opportunity for you to secure a more substantial settlement.

To increase the likelihood of a successful claim, it is essential to establish the following elements through a “preponderance of the evidence,” where the odds are greater than 50% that the other party’s negligence caused your injuries.

Here are the key factors we consider:

Did The At-Fault Party Owe You A Duty Of Care?

To establish legal liability, it is necessary to demonstrate that the defendant owed you a duty of care. This duty of care requires individuals to act with reasonable caution when their actions could potentially harm others. For instance, your doctor owes you a duty of care due to their extensive training and expertise. They are expected to provide a level of care beyond that of an average person. On the other hand, if you inquire about a product’s ingredients at a grocery store, you generally do not have grounds for a personal injury claim. Grocery store clerks are tasked with selling and distributing products, not offering medical advice concerning allergies.

Was The Duty Of Care Breached?

The next step is to prove that the negligent party violated their duty of care. This can be particularly challenging, especially in cases of medical malpractice. Essentially, you must demonstrate that the at-fault party acted unreasonably in a specific situation. For example, consider the duty of care when driving. You are expected to drive in a reasonable manner that does not endanger other motorists. Texting while driving and causing an accident is a clear breach of this duty. However, if you swerve to avoid debris on the road and cause an accident, you likely have not breached your duty of care. Your actions were reasonable in a similar situation, and you are unlikely to be held responsible for any resulting damages.

Did You Suffer Damages As A Result Of The Breach?

You must also establish that the breach of the duty of care led to your injuries. Insurers often work hard to argue that your injuries resulted from unrelated causes. For example, they may claim that injuries you experienced from a previous accident are responsible for your current condition, rather than their customer’s negligence. Our personal injury lawyers excel in proving insurers wrong and demonstrating that your injuries did, in fact, result from the negligence of their customer.

Did Your Damages Occur In The Past 2 Years?

In Texas, there is a relatively short 2-year “statute of limitations.” This means that you must file your legal claim within 2 years of the accident date, or your claim may be dismissed. While 2 years may seem like a long time, it is quite limited in the legal world. Filing your claim promptly is wise, as waiting longer makes it more challenging to gather evidence, and the at-fault party has more time to build their defense. Avoid giving them unnecessary advantages.

Have You Avoided Significant Errors?

Texas law allows for imperfections, but you should be cautious about certain mistakes. For example, posting anything on social media, regardless of how innocuous it may seem, is not advisable. Insurers can use your social media posts against you. In Texas, being a “partial fault state,” you may be found partially responsible for your injuries, which could reduce the amount the at-fault party owes you. Therefore, consulting with a personal injury lawyer early on is a prudent decision. They can offer guidance on avoiding mistakes that could cost you thousands of dollars or even jeopardize your claim.

CASE STUDY: $962,500 Settlement for a Neck Injury in a Commercial Truck Accident

Experience our legal expertise in action through this concise narrative showcasing how one of our clients secured a $962,500.00 settlement for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident:

A truck driver was traveling west on US 287 but failed to exercise due diligence and executed an unsafe lane change. This negligent maneuver resulted in a collision with a motorist, inflicting a neck injury upon her. Complicating matters, the injured motorist had a significant prior spinal surgery in her medical history.

Unfortunately, insurance companies often attempt to exploit pre-existing medical conditions to reduce their financial liability. We anticipated that they would assert that at least a portion of the driver’s injuries were attributable to her previous spinal surgery.

While it’s conceivable that a prior surgery could impact current injuries, Texas law adheres to a principle known as “The Eggshell Doctrine.” This principle dictates that the injured party should be compensated for all injuries stemming from the accident, even if pre-existing conditions exacerbate those injuries.

To assist our client in winning her claim, Shane Mullen recommended meticulous documentation of any new or worsened symptoms. This necessitated obtaining medical records confirming any newly arising symptoms post-accident. Subsequently, the client underwent multiple laminectomies to address damaged vertebrae.

When negotiations commenced with the insurance company, it was unsurprising that they contested the notion that the accident’s force could have necessitated surgery. In response, Shane highlighted the documented emergence of new symptoms and underscored that even a moderate accident could exacerbate pre-existing injuries.

Ultimately, the insurance company was compelled to provide a settlement of $962,500.00. Remarkably, our client benefited from a reduced 29% case fee, saving her $70,000 since her claim was resolved without the need to initiate a lawsuit!
