Gina WestGina West ★★★★★ These are professional people who really do care. I called them for the first time on yesterday about my vehicle accident and Josh represented the firm with compassion. He listened, explained that someone would be contacting me today and minutes later Matt called me. I was given the option of an appointment the same day or early the next morning at my home. Matt provided me with his direct contact phone number and his email address. It's with 27 years of serving, training and experience in the United States Air Force that I give this law firm the highest recommendation. Grateful indeed, Gina W.Marvinette MonroeMarvinette Monroe ★★★★★ I can’t say enough about Josh and the team at Mullen & Mullen with assisting with my motor vehicle accident in Dallas, TX. They’re consistently courteous, professional, and provide exceptional service. I will recommend their team for any motor vehicle accidents and slip & falls.Amber BurnettAmber Burnett ★★★★★ Mullen & Mullen assisted my husband when he was injured in a motor vehicle collision on Main Street. They are absolutely wonderful Frisco personal injury lawyers. They assisted him in getting the medical attention he needed following the wreck. When it came time to negotiate with the insurance companies, they wouldn't take no for an answer. Our attorneys kept the heat on until they finally had to do the right thing. I feel like a lot of firms would have given up and recommended a lawsuit right away but Mullen & Mullen attorneys are super ethical and determined. They were eventually able to help my husband get almost the full available policy limits without the stress and time associated with a lawsuit. If you need a Frisco car accident attorney these are the injury lawyers you should call. Highly recommended!Chad BurnettChad Burnett ★★★★★ 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. A lot of attorneys would have given up and just 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 very grateful that 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.

I took advice from a friend who insisted that I contact another law firm who's name I was very familiar with, from constantly hearing there commercial on the radio. When I called the other law firm they set me up an appointment to come in an speak to someone. I went and was very impressed with how nice there office was, however I was not impressed with how much there fees where. Let's just say that I could see why the decor was so nice after I learned what they would charge me for representation. I politely declined and limped right out of there office. I then went home and started doing my own research online going from one firm to another, reading review after review and came across Mullen & Mullen. I called the office explained my situation just as I had done with the other law firm and the first thing that the lady asked me from Mullen & Mullen was would I like to come in? or Would I like for someone to come out to my home to talk with me? They sent someone out, he answered all of my questoins. He was very thorough and professional so I was only a little impressed at this time, until he explained to me what there fee would be. And that's when I became even more impressed. I was told that a Mr. Josh Banks would be contacting me and would be handling my case. Mr Banks always kept me informed with what was going on and would check to see if I was satisfied with the services that I was receiving. He also got me the maximum amount that I could receive without charging me an arm and a leg, the process didn't take long and I didn't have to go into some fancy smancy office. Over all my experience with Mullen & Mullen has been great! Keep up the good work Mullen & Mullen!Debbie WilsonDebbie Wilson ★★★★★ Truly great firm!

Mullen & Mullen took care of us from the very beginning making everything extremely easy to get the help we needed.

What Your Attorney Says

Shane V. Mullen, Managing Partner, Mullen & Mullen Law Firm“Our firm leaves no stone unturned in DWI investigations.”

When a drunk driver recklessly decides to get behind the wheel, the consequences can be devastating. We represent individuals every month whose lives – and the lives of their family members – are completely upended due to the gross negligence of intoxicated motorists.

At Mullen & Mullen, we hold drunk drivers fully accountable for the damages they cause innocent victims. This includes the recovery of punitive damages meant to punish intoxicated motorists under Texas law.

Dallas Dram Shop Accident AttorneysOur firm also routinely handles cases against bars and restaurants who significantly overserve patrons then turn them loose on the road at great risk to the community. You may be entitled to damages from a bar or restaurant if they served an obviously intoxicated motorist who injured you under a “dram shop” / bar liability cause of action.

Three Best Rated: Best Business of 2023We had a recent case where our clients – a husband and wife – suffered significant injuries when a drunk driver collided with their motorcycle. We quickly established contact with the intoxicated motorist and got her to admit she had been served at a nearby bar despite being under the age of twenty-one. This was critical since drunk drivers usually go radio silent when formal criminal charges have been presented. By quickly establishing where she had been drinking, we were able to file a complaint with the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) and an investigation was launched. We freely shared evidence with the assigned agent to aid in that investigation.

Multi Million Dollar Advocates Forum MembersEventually, we secured the full $60,000.00 liability policy limits of the drunk driver as well as the full $1,000,000.00 liquor liability policy limits from the bar that had over-served her without even having to file a lawsuit. Avoiding litigation saved our clients significant time and money. It’s always rewarding when we quickly obtain the best possible financial outcome for our clients while also helping to make our local community a little bit safer.

Why Choose Mullen & Mullen to Represent Your Drunk Driving Injury Claim?

Our Expertise

Top 10 Texas MVA Settlements in 2021At the heart of our practice lies a deep understanding of the complexities surrounding drunk driving accidents. Mullen & Mullen Law Firm has been in business in Dallas for over 40 years and our seasoned attorneys have 95 years of combined experience holding drunk drivers accountable. We know the ins and outs of alcohol-related crashes and thoroughly investigate them. If an obviously intoxicated driver was overserved at a bar or restaurant, rest assured we will also look to hold the establishment accountable under a “Dram Shop” cause of action. Mullen & Mullen routinely obtains full policy limit offers on drunk driving injury claims without having to file a lawsuit. This puts more of YOUR settlement money in your pocket.

Diagnostic & Medical Treatment at No Upfront Cost

What Types of Car Accident Injuries Get Misdiagnosed? Our firm will help you get the medical attention you need and deserve from providers willing to delay billing you until after your drunk driving injury claim is resolved. Over the span of four decades, our lawyers have established exclusive relationships with leading medical professionals and institutions in Dallas and throughout Texas who specialize in treating accident victims. This is critical since most doctors hesitate to treat individuals involved in accidents due to concerns about becoming entangled in lengthy legal proceedings. This is usually the case even if you have health insurance.

Comprehensive Legal Representation

When you choose Mullen & Mullen Law Firm, you can expect comprehensive legal representation tailored to your specific needs. Our attorneys recognize that each case is unique, and we take the time to establish real relationships with our clients. Our skilled team, if necessary, works diligently to gather evidence, consult with experts, interview witnesses, and often times reconstruct the events leading up to the crash. Armed with this information, we develop a strong and compelling case to hold the intoxicated driver (and sometimes a bar or restaurant) accountable for their actions.

Support and Compassion

We understand that drunk driving accidents can be emotionally and physically traumatic for victims. Our team will provide compassionate support throughout the legal process. Our attorneys take the time to listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and keep you informed about the progress of your case. Our goal is to alleviate the burden on you and your loved ones, allowing you to focus on your recovery while we fight for your rights.

We were extremely pleased with the end result and will always call if we ever need him. My husband told me it’s so easy and they are so nice it makes me nervous. We learned it really was just easy! They really did have our best interest at heart. Our neighbor had a similar wreck and we told them to call and they didn’t. They lost so much and the wife still has pain to this day. She always says to me we should have called.

About Drunk Driving Injury Claims & Texas Law

Below you will find frequently asked questions and detailed information about Texas law and accident injury claims involving impaired or drunk drivers.

Are you entitled to punitive damages if injured by a drunk driver in Texas?

In Texas, if you were injured by an impaired driver, you may be entitled to punitive damages. Punitive damages are designed to punish reckless or grossly negligent conduct.

How do you establish the negligent driver was intoxicated or under the influence at the time of the accident?

There are various ways to attribute fault to the driver for operating their motor vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol. One of the simplest methods is if the Investigating Officer arrested the at-fault driver at the accident scene on suspicion of DWI or DUI.

It’s important to note that even if criminal charges were dropped against the at-fault driver or they were found not guilty in a criminal trial, you may still be entitled to punitive damages. In criminal cases, the Defendant’s guilt must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, whereas civil trials only require a finding based on a preponderance of the evidence which translates to “more likely than not”.

We have 2 in-house accident investigators who will promptly request and acquire a copy of the Texas Peace Officer’s Crash Report pertaining to your incident, if one has been completed. Moreover, our team will submit an open records request to relevant law enforcement agencies in order to obtain additional documents related to the collision, such as officers’ notes, witness statements, and body worn camera footage.

Additionally, our Dallas attorneys will closely monitor the advancement of any criminal charges brought against the at-fault driver and often communicate with criminal prosecutors. We will actively pursue the acquisition of documents associated with any guilty pleas or “no contest” pleas related to your drunk driving accident injury.

Furthermore, we will conduct a thorough background search on the intoxicated or impaired driver. This search aims to determine their financial resources and uncover any prior criminal history, specifically previous arrests for driving while intoxicated or under the influence.

If the police didn’t investigate the wreck is it impossible to prove the at-fault driver was drunk or high?

If the police did not investigate the wreck, proving the at-fault driver was drunk or high becomes much more difficult but it can still be done. Your testimony alone can serve as evidence to establish that the Defendant was intoxicated.

For instance, if you witnessed the at-fault driver discarding beer cans from their vehicle after the wreck, speaking incoherently, stumbling, or struggling to maintain balance due to intoxication, or any other behavior indicating drug or alcohol use, you would be permitted to testify about these observations. This would also include detecting the smell of alcohol on the at-fault party’s breath.

It is important to remember that confirming the at-fault driver’s intoxication without police presence at the scene is easier if an independent witness corroborates your statements or provides their own testimony indicating their belief that the at-fault driver was under the influence.

How can our attorneys assist you with this?

Our accident investigators will make efforts to locate and interview any known witnesses who can testify about the at-fault driver’s words or actions following the drunk driving accident. Our investigators have experience in canvassing areas to identify potential witnesses and routinely obtain sworn affidavits from witnesses.

Setting Up Proper Insurance Claims After a Drunk Driving Accident

When should you file insurance claims?

You should file insurance claims with all potential insurance carriers as soon as possible. Generally, the quicker you file claims the sooner your vehicle will be repaired or replaced.

What insurance claims should you file if you have been hurt in an accident with an impaired or drunk driver?

You may be able to file the following potential insurance claims:

  1. You can file a liability claim against the drunk or impaired driver, seeking compensation for both property damage and injury damages.
  2. Another option is to file a liability claim against the drunk or impaired driver’s employer if they were working at the time of the collision. This claim would cover property damage as well as injury damages.
  3. You can also file a liability claim against the owner of the at-fault motor vehicle if they negligently entrusted the vehicle to a drunk or otherwise impaired driver. This claim would encompass property damage and injury damages.
  4. If the drunk driver or impaired driver does not have insurance, you can file an uninsured motorist claim through your own automobile insurance carrier.
  5. In case your damages exceed the insurance limits of the drunk or impaired driver, you can file an underinsured motorist claim through your own automobile insurance carrier.
  6. Additionally, you can file a Personal Injury Protection (PIP) claim through your own automobile insurance carrier. This claim aims to reimburse your medical expenses and lost wages resulting from the accident.Dallas Dram Shop Accident Attorneys
  7. If a bar or restaurant served an obviously intoxicated individual, you can file a claim against the bar or restaurant under a “Dram Shop” theory of liability.

Our Dallas attorneys will file all necessary claims with potential insurance carriers at the onset of your drunk driving accident injury case. Please note that you may be covered under a household policy even if you don’t own a vehicle.

Vehicle Repair vs. Vehicle Replacement

We will assist you in making sure your car, motorcycle, or truck is replaced or repaired in a timely manner following the accident with the impaired driver.

Should you take your car to the repair shop recommended by the at-fault party’s insurance carrier?

No way. Insurance carriers want your vehicle damage to be evaluated to be as low as possible. You should always exercise your right to take your car, motorcycle, or truck to a dealership or repair shop of your own choosing to obtain an estimate after an accident.

Are you entitled to a rental car if injured by an intoxicated driver?

Yes. Normally you are entitled to a rental car after an accident. That is unless your vehicle has been “totaled” or deemed a “total loss.” If your automobile is “totaled” you are only entitled to recover the fair market value (FMV) of your vehicle. Although some carriers will pay for a rental vehicle until your automobile has been determined to be a “total loss”.

Filing a property damage claim with your own insurance company and requesting a rental vehicle (if you have that coverage) is sometimes the quickest way to get your car repaired or replaced after an accident. You will likely pay your deductible but should receive a refund of the deductible amount once the at-fault party’s insurer pays for the cost of repairs and/or the replacement value.

Securing a Law Loan

Can you get a loan against your injury claim?

Most likely. Most law loan companies, however, require that you have an attorney to receive a loan against your settlement proceeds. Our Dallas law firm works with all major law loan companies to help clients receive immediate financial assistance.

Securing Medical Treatment After Your Accident

Can you get diagnostics and medical treatment, even if you don’t have health insurance or can’t afford your deductible?

Yes. Our law office has established relationships with numerous medical providers who agree to delay billing you until your case settles. Our Dallas attorneys even work with orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, anesthesiologists, and hospitals willing to forego payment for surgeries until your case concludes. Of course, available insurance proceeds must be established prior to any surgery.

What happens if a health insurance company pays a portion of your medical bills following the accident?

The health insurance company is generally entitled to be reimbursed if you recover funds from a negligent third-party. This is commonly referred to as subrogation. Our attorneys can almost always obtain at least a 1/3 reduction of any applicable health insurance lien. Many times this reduction alone covers the cost of our attorney fees.

Damages You May Be Able to Recover Against the Drunk Driver that Injured You in Texas

Available damages fall into two general categories: economic damages and non-economic damages.

Economic Damages

Economic damages include:

  • reasonable and necessary medical expenses,
  • any reasonable and necessary future medical expenses,
  • vehicle repair costs or the replacement value of your vehicle,
  • diminished value of your vehicle (after repair),
  • lost wages, and income you will lose in the future i.e., loss of earning capacity.

Non-economic Damages

Non-economic damages are not as readily ascertainable. These damages include:

  • pain and suffering in the past and future,
  • impairment in the past and future, and
  • mental anguish in the past and future.

Our accident law firm has over 40 years of experience in evaluating personal injury cases. We seek to maximize your recovery and fully develop your damage model. Our attorneys will retain experts to establish both liability and damages if necessary.

For Example: In the past we have retained economists and vocational rehabilitation consultants to develop our clients’ claims for loss of earnings in the future. Our Dallas accident lawyers have also retained certified life-care planners to estimate future medical costs as well as to evaluate the cost of any accommodations made necessary due to drunk driver inflicted injuries.

Injury Cases Against Dallas Bars & Restaurants for Over-Serving Alcohol to a Driver

If you were injured in an accident with a drunk driver, or a loved one was killed, you can file a claim against a bar or restaurant if they over-served alcohol. These claims, often referred to as “Dram Shop” cases, require you to demonstrate the bar or restaurant over-served alcohol to an obviously intoxicated individual.
