Is Your Claim Viable?

Personal Injury Claims Lawyer Dallas, TXAt Mullen & Mullen, we aim to settle the majority of claims we take on, just like most other lawyers do. However, what sets us apart from other personal injury attorneys in Fort Worth is the enhanced potential for a more substantial settlement in your favor.

To enhance the likelihood of your claim’s success, several critical elements need to be substantiated through a “preponderance of the evidence.” In simpler terms, this means there should be a greater than 50% probability that the negligence of the other party directly contributed to your injuries.

Here’s what we assess:

Did the At-Fault Party Owe You a Duty of Care?

What Questions Do Defending Personal Injury Lawyers Ask?To establish legal liability, it’s imperative to demonstrate that the defendant had a duty of care towards you. A “duty of care” simply implies that one must act with reasonable caution in situations where harm to someone else could be foreseen.

For instance, your doctor owes you a duty of care. They underwent years of training and charge for their services, indicating a certain level of expertise beyond the layperson. However, seeking advice about allergens in a grocery store product from a clerk is unlikely to form the basis of a personal injury claim. In this case, the clerk’s duties are related to distributing and selling food, not providing medical advice regarding ingredients.

Was the Duty of Care Breached?

Ask the right questionsSubsequently, it is necessary to establish that the party in question breached their duty of care. This can be especially challenging, particularly in cases of medical malpractice.

In essence, it is vital to demonstrate that the at-fault party acted unreasonably in a specific situation. For example, while driving, you have a duty of care to operate your vehicle in a manner that does not jeopardize the safety of other drivers. Texting while driving and causing an accident would likely constitute a breach of this duty. On the other hand, if you swerve to avoid debris on the road and subsequently cause an accident, you probably haven’t breached your duty of care, as your actions align with what a reasonable person would do in the same situation. In such instances, it is unlikely that anyone can sue you for resulting damages.

Did You Sustain Injuries as a Consequence of the Breach?

Attorney Settles Cervical Injury Truck Accident in Denton, TX for $142,217.39It is crucial to prove that the breach of the duty of care directly led to your injuries. Insurance companies often make efforts to attribute your injuries to unrelated causes. For example, they might argue that your current injuries are the result of a previous accident rather than their customer’s negligent behavior.

This is where our personal injury lawyers step in. We possess the expertise to counter insurance companies’ claims and establish that your injuries indeed occurred due to the negligence of the other party.

Did the Damages Occur within the Last 2 Years?

How Does the Texas Statute of Limitations Work?Texas has a relatively short “statute of limitations” of two years. This means that you must initiate your legal claim within two years from the date of your accident. Failure to do so will result in the court dismissing your claim if you attempt to file it later.

While two years may seem like a substantial timeframe, in the legal realm, it is rather limited. It is advisable to file your claim as soon as possible after your accident. Delaying the process makes gathering evidence more challenging and provides the at-fault party with additional time to build their defense. Therefore, it’s in your best interest to take prompt action.

Have You Avoided Critical Errors?

Are you coveredTexas law acknowledges that individuals can make mistakes and still pursue legal claims. However, it’s essential to be cautious about specific missteps. For example, posting anything on social media, regardless of how innocuous it may seem, is not advisable. Insurers have been known to use social media content against claimants.

It’s worth noting that Texas follows a “partial fault” system, which means that you can be assigned partial responsibility for your injuries. This can lead to a reduction in the compensation owed to you by the at-fault party. Hence, seeking guidance from a personal injury lawyer at the earliest opportunity is wise, as they can provide advice on avoiding pitfalls that could potentially cost you thousands of dollars or even jeopardize your claim entirely.

Success Story: How We Secured a $962,500 Settlement for a Neck Injury in a Commercial Truck Accident

Million Dollar AdvocatesWitness our legal expertise in action as we recount the story of how one of our clients triumphed with a $962,500.00 settlement for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident:

The scenario unfolded when a truck driver was traveling west on US 287 but failed to exercise due care, resulting in an unsafe lane change. This recklessness led to a collision with another motorist who suffered a neck injury. It is worth noting that the injured party had previously undergone a significant spinal surgery, which posed a potential challenge, as insurance companies often employ pre-existing conditions to reduce their payout obligations.

The inherent predicament with pre-existing conditions is that insurance companies may attempt to attribute a portion of the injuries to the individual’s prior medical history. In this case, we foresaw such an argument and prepared accordingly.

Texas law, guided by the “Eggshell Doctrine,” holds that the plaintiff should be compensated for all injuries stemming from the accident, even if pre-existing conditions exacerbate those injuries. This principle underscores that one must take the plaintiff as they are, regardless of their prior medical history.

Three Best Rated: Best Business of 2023To bolster our client’s case, Shane Mullen recommended meticulous documentation of any new or aggravated symptoms resulting from the accident. This involved obtaining medical records detailing the client’s post-accident symptoms. Subsequently, the client underwent multiple laminectomies to address the damaged vertebrae.

When negotiations with the insurance company commenced, they predictably contended that the accident’s force could not have necessitated surgery. Shane skillfully highlighted the documented new symptoms and underscored that even a moderate accident could aggravate pre-existing injuries.

In the end, the insurance company was compelled to pay a substantial settlement of $962,500.00. Moreover, our client benefited from a 29% reduced case fee, saving her $70,000, as her claim was resolved without the need for legal action.
