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.

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.

Our dedicated local team demonstrates an unwavering dedication to your welfare.
Mullen & Mullen has been championing the legal rights of North Texans since 1983.

The average industry fee is 33.3%-35%. Our exceptional track record allows us to offer a pre-suit contingency fee that is well below industry standards at just 29%, leaving more of your settlement in your pocket.
At Mullen & Mullen, we aim to settle most of the claims we take on, as do most lawyers. However, what sets us apart from other personal injury attorneys in Fort Worth is the enhanced potential for you to receive a more substantial settlement.
To maximize the chances of your claim’s success, certain key elements must be established through a preponderance of the evidence, meaning it is more likely than not that the negligence of the other party led to your injuries. Here are the factors we consider:
Legal liability necessitates demonstrating that the defendant owed you a duty of care. This duty involves acting with reasonable care in situations that could foreseeably harm someone. For instance, your doctor owes you a duty of care due to their expertise, whereas a grocery store clerk typically does not have such a duty.
You must prove that the negligent party breached their duty of care, often a challenging task, especially in medical malpractice cases. Essentially, you need to show that the at-fault party acted unreasonably in a given situation. An example would be negligent driving, such as texting while driving, which violates the duty of care towards other motorists.
However, if you swerve to avoid debris in the road and cause an accident, you likely haven’t breached your duty of care, as it’s what a reasonable person would do in the same situation.
It’s crucial to establish that the breach of duty of care led to your injuries. Insurers often try to attribute your injuries to unrelated causes. This is where our personal injury lawyers excel in proving the insurer wrong and demonstrating that your injuries resulted from the negligence of their customer.
Texas imposes a relatively short two-year statute of limitations, meaning you must file your legal claim within two years of the accident date, or your claim may be dismissed. Two years may seem ample, but in the legal world, it’s a brief period. Filing your claim promptly is advisable as it ensures evidence is readily available, and the at-fault party has less time to build a defense.
Texas law allows for imperfection, but certain mistakes must be avoided. For instance, sharing content on social media, even seemingly innocuous posts, can be used against you by insurers. Texas follows a “partial fault” system, which means you can be found partially responsible for your injuries, reducing the compensation owed by the at-fault party. Consulting a personal injury lawyer early on can provide guidance on avoiding these pitfalls, ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve.
Discover the prowess of our legal expertise through the following narrative, showcasing how one of our clients secured a settlement of $962,500.00 for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident:
In this particular incident, a truck driver was traveling westward on US 287 but, regrettably, neglected to exercise due diligence and executed an unsafe lane change. This maneuver led to a collision with another motorist, resulting in a neck injury. It’s essential to note that the injured motorist had previously undergone significant spine surgery.
Insurance companies often seize upon pre-existing medical conditions to limit their liability, potentially reducing the compensation owed to the injured party. We foresaw that they might assert that some of the driver’s injuries stemmed from her prior spine surgery.
In Texas, however, a legal principle known as “The Eggshell Doctrine” is applied. This doctrine necessitates that the plaintiff be taken as they are found, meaning they should be fully compensated for all injuries resulting from the accident, even if pre-existing conditions worsen those injuries.
To bolster our client’s case, Shane Mullen recommended diligent documentation of any new or intensified symptoms that emerged after the accident. This entailed obtaining medical records confirming any fresh symptoms noticed by the client. Subsequently, the client underwent multiple laminectomies to rectify damaged vertebrae.
As negotiations with the insurance company commenced, they predictably contended that the accident’s force couldn’t have necessitated surgery. In response, Shane emphasized the documented emergence of new symptoms and underscored that even a moderate accident could exacerbate pre-existing injuries.
Ultimately, the insurer was compelled to disburse a settlement of $962,500.00. Additionally, our client benefited from a reduced 29% case fee, amounting to savings of $70,000, as her claim was resolved without resorting to a lawsuit.
