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. That doesn’t even include the combined experience of the attorneys that serve as of-counsel to Mullen & Mullen at no additional cost to our clients. Our firm continues to evolve, but we never forget our Core Values. We do the right thing, handle cases the way we would want our own case handled, and we truly listen to clients. We have over 40 years of local knowledge, and that matters!
Some lawyers forget that they represent the client, but we never have. Our legal team will make YOU the priority. 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.
Most firms hire an investigator to help develop evidence on your case and charge you back for that service. Our firm, however, has 2 full-time accident investigators on staff and we offer their services to you for free. This is another way we will maximize your compensation.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Video footage is worth a lot more. Our in-house videographer allows us to capture the true impact the accident has on your life beyond mere words on a piece of paper.
When necessary, Mullen & Mullen Law Firm uses cutting edge technology like 3D imaging videos to fully demonstrate the extent of our clients’ injuries to the insurance companies. This also helps maximize the value of your claim.

Our dedicated local team is known for their steadfast work ethic and sincere dedication to your welfare.
Mullen & Mullen Law Firm has been championing the legal rights of North Texans since 1983. With more than four decades of experience, our legal experts have assisted countless individuals in maneuvering through the claims process, recuperating from bodily injuries, and securing the rightful financial compensation they deserve.
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 prioritize settling claims successfully, setting us apart from other personal injury lawyers in Fort Worth. We offer a higher chance of maximizing your settlement funds. To ensure your claim’s success, specific elements must be proven through a “preponderance of the evidence,” meaning it’s more than 50% likely that the other party’s negligence caused your injuries.
Here’s what we assess:
For legal liability, it’s crucial to establish that the defendant owed you a duty of care, meaning they should have acted with reasonable care to avoid harm. For instance, a doctor owes a duty of care due to their expertise, but a grocery store clerk doesn’t when asked about product ingredients.
You must prove that the negligent party failed to meet their duty of care. This involves demonstrating their unreasonable behavior in a given situation. For example, texting while driving breaches the duty of care, while swerving to avoid debris might not.
It’s essential to show that the breach led to your injuries, despite efforts by insurers to attribute them to unrelated causes. Skilled personal injury lawyers can refute these claims and establish the connection between the negligence and your injuries.
In Texas, you have a two-year statute of limitations to file your claim from the date of the accident. Acting promptly is crucial as delay makes evidence collection challenging and gives the at-fault party more time to build their defense.
While you don’t need to be perfect, certain errors can harm your case. Insurers may use your social media posts against you, and Texas being a partial fault state means your compensation reduces proportionately if you share responsibility for your injuries. Seeking advice from a personal injury lawyer early on helps you avoid costly missteps and safeguards your claim.
To witness our legal expertise in action, explore the following case study illustrating how a client secured a $962,500.00 settlement for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident:
In this case, a truck driver was traveling west on US 287 when they negligently made an unsafe lane change, colliding with another motorist who subsequently suffered a neck injury. It’s essential to note that the injured party had a significant history of prior spine surgery, which insurance companies often exploit to reduce their payout.
Unfortunately, pre-existing medical conditions can become a point of contention for insurance providers, potentially diminishing the compensation owed to the injured party. We anticipated that the insurance company would likely argue that at least some of the injuries were linked to the client’s previous spine surgery.
However, under Texas law, the “Eggshell Doctrine” standard prevails, meaning that the plaintiff must be taken as they are found. This implies that the injured party should be compensated for all injuries resulting from the accident, even if pre-existing conditions exacerbated those injuries.
To assist our client in winning her claim, Shane Mullen recommended the diligent documentation of any new or aggravated symptoms. This involved obtaining medical records for any new symptoms that arose after the accident. The client underwent multiple laminectomies to rectify the damage to her vertebrae.
When negotiations with the insurer commenced, they predictably contended that the accident’s force couldn’t have necessitated surgery. In response, Shane emphasized the documented new symptoms and the fact that even a moderate accident could aggravate pre-existing injuries.
Ultimately, the insurer was compelled to settle the case for $962,500.00. Additionally, our client benefited from a reduced 29% case fee, saving $70,000, as her claim was resolved without the need for litigation.
