Personal injury firms take 33.3% – 35% on pre-suit settlements. Our family puts more of YOUR settlement money in your pocket by offering a discounted 29% contingency fee on pre-suit settlements. Most of our claims settle without the filing of a lawsuit.
According to TopVerdict.com, our attorneys consistently achieve some of the highest recoveries in the state. As a matter of fact, in the last five years, we’ve made their Texas “Top” lists 105 times. We also placed on their #1 settlements list for Dallas county (in different categories) 9 times. (2025 lists not yet published). When you factor in our reduced 29% contingency fee, we are confident we will help you recover more. At Mullen & Mullen, we pride ourselves on routinely recovering full policy limits for our clients without the necessity of costly and time-consuming litigation.
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.

At Mullen & Mullen, we aim to settle most of the claims we accept, much like many other attorneys. However, what sets us apart from other personal injury lawyers in Fort Worth is the potential for a more substantial settlement in your favor.
In order to enhance the likelihood of a successful claim, certain essential elements must be demonstrated through a “preponderance of the evidence,” signifying that the odds are greater than 50% that the negligence of the opposing party led to your injuries.
Here’s what we assess:
Establishing legal liability necessitates demonstrating that the defendant owed you a duty of care. “Duty of care” simply means that one must act with reasonable care when placed in a situation foreseeably posing harm to others.
For instance, your doctor has a duty of care, as they have received extensive education and charge for their services, indicating a level of expertise beyond the average person. Conversely, a grocery store clerk lacks a duty of care in providing medical advice regarding allergic reactions to specific product ingredients since their role is primarily distributing and selling food.
Subsequently, it is imperative to prove that the negligent party violated their duty of care, which can be especially challenging in cases such as medical malpractice.
Essentially, you need to demonstrate that the at-fault party acted unreasonably within a particular context. For instance, when driving, you have a duty to operate your vehicle in a reasonable manner that does not endanger other motorists. Texting while driving and causing an accident would likely constitute a breach of this duty. However, if you swerve to avoid road debris and an accident occurs, you likely have not breached your duty of care, as your actions align with what a reasonable person would do in a similar situation, and thus, you may not be held liable.
It is also crucial to establish that the breach in the duty of care directly resulted in your injuries. Insurance companies often strive to attribute your injuries to unrelated causes, such as a prior accident. Our personal injury lawyers excel in disproving such assertions and affirming that your injuries indeed resulted from the negligence of the at-fault party.
Texas imposes a relatively brief two-year “statute of limitations,” meaning you must initiate your legal claim within two years of the accident’s occurrence; otherwise, the court may dismiss your claim. Despite the seemingly ample time frame, in the legal realm, this is quite limited. It is advisable to file your claim as promptly as possible to preserve evidence and prevent the at-fault party from bolstering their defense.
Texas law allows for imperfection, but it is essential to be cautious about specific mistakes. Posting content on social media, regardless of its apparent innocence, can be detrimental, as insurers may manipulate your online activity against you. Texas follows a “partial fault” system, where you can be assigned partial responsibility for your injuries, leading to a reduction in the amount owed to you by the at-fault party.
Seeking guidance from a personal injury lawyer promptly is prudent, as they can advise you on avoiding mistakes that might jeopardize your claim, potentially costing you substantial compensation or, in the worst-case scenario, the loss of your claim altogether.
In a demonstration of our legal expertise, we present a compelling case in which a client secured a significant settlement of $962,500.00 for injuries sustained in a commercial truck accident.
The incident unfolded as a truck driver was traveling westbound on US 287, negligently executing an unsafe lane change. Regrettably, this maneuver led to a collision with a fellow motorist, resulting in a neck injury. It is important to note that the injured party had a prior history of undergoing a major spine surgery.
Insurance companies frequently attempt to leverage pre-existing medical conditions to reduce their liability. It was expected that they would argue that the client’s injuries were partially attributable to her previous spine surgery.
In such cases, Texas law invokes the “Eggshell Doctrine,” obliging the responsible party to accept the plaintiff as they are, including any pre-existing conditions. This ensures full compensation for all injuries arising from the accident, even if exacerbated by pre-existing medical conditions.
To bolster the client’s case, attorney Shane Mullen recommended the meticulous documentation of any new or intensified symptoms experienced post-accident. This entailed obtaining medical records that captured the emergence of these new symptoms. The client subsequently underwent multiple laminectomies to address damaged vertebrae.
When negotiations with the insurance company commenced, they predictably contended that the accident’s force could not have necessitated surgery. In response, Shane Mullen drew attention to the documented emergence of new symptoms and underscored that even a moderate accident could exacerbate pre-existing injuries.
Ultimately, the insurer was compelled to settle the claim for $962,500.00, resulting in substantial relief for the client. Furthermore, our reduced 29% case fee led to the client saving $70,000, as the claim was resolved without the need for litigation.
