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.

You are the boss, and we will respond quickly to your requests for case updates and assistance.

The majority of claims we accept are settled, which is the case for most lawyers. However, what sets Mullen & Mullen apart from other personal injury lawyers in Fort Worth is the potential for you to walk away with a more substantial settlement.
For your claim to have the best chance of success, certain elements must be established by a “preponderance of the evidence,” meaning it’s more likely than not that the other party’s negligence caused your injuries.
Here’s what we consider:
To establish legal liability, you must prove that the defendant owed you a duty of care. Duty of care means acting with reasonable caution in situations that could foreseeably harm someone. For example, your doctor owes you a duty of care due to their expertise, but a grocery store clerk does not owe a duty of care in offering medical advice regarding food ingredients.
The next step is demonstrating that the negligent party breached their duty of care. This can be challenging, especially in cases like medical malpractice. You need to show that the at-fault party acted unreasonably in a given situation. For instance, if you text while driving and cause an accident, you likely violated your duty of care towards other motorists.
You must establish that the breach of the duty of care led to your injuries. Insurers often try to attribute your injuries to unrelated causes, such as a previous accident. Our personal injury lawyers are experienced in disproving these claims and demonstrating that your injuries indeed resulted from the other party’s negligence.
In Texas, there’s a relatively short 2-year statute of limitations for filing a legal claim after an accident. Failing to file within this timeframe can result in the court dismissing your claim. Timely action is essential for gathering evidence and building a strong case.
Texas law allows for imperfections, but some mistakes should be avoided. For instance, posting on social media, no matter how innocent it may seem, can be used against you by insurers. Texas follows a “partial fault” system, where your responsibility for your injuries can affect the amount you receive. Consulting with a personal injury lawyer promptly is advisable to prevent potential mistakes that could jeopardize your claim.
Witness the demonstration of our legal expertise in action through this compelling story of how one of our clients secured a settlement of $962,500.00 for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident:
On a journey along US 287, a truck driver veered westward, neglecting to exercise due caution and making an unsafe lane change. This reckless maneuver led to a collision with another motorist, resulting in a severe neck injury. Remarkably, the injured motorist had a history of major spine surgery in her medical records.
The existence of pre-existing medical conditions can often be exploited by insurance companies to diminish their payout obligations. In this case, we foresaw that the insurer might contend that a portion of the driver’s injuries were attributable to her prior major spine surgery.
However, under Texas law, a legal principle known as “The Eggshell Doctrine” is applied. This principle dictates that the plaintiff should be compensated for all injuries resulting from the accident, regardless of whether pre-existing conditions exacerbated those injuries. It obliges us to take the plaintiff as they are, no matter their medical history.
To bolster our client’s case, Shane Mullen recommended the meticulous documentation of any new or exacerbated symptoms. This entailed obtaining medical records of any fresh symptoms that emerged following the accident. Subsequently, the client underwent several laminectomies to rectify the damaged vertebrae.
When negotiations commenced with the insurance company, it was unsurprising that they argued the accident’s force couldn’t have necessitated surgery. In response, Shane drew attention to the meticulously documented new symptoms and underscored the fact that even a moderately severe accident could exacerbate pre-existing injuries.
In the end, the insurance company was compelled to disburse a settlement amounting to $962,500.00. Notably, our client benefited from substantial savings, as our reduced case fee of 29% applied, since her claim was successfully resolved without the need for a lawsuit.
