Exceptional experience with Mullen & Mullen Law Firm. They guided my sister through a highly complex post-accident situation without insurance, handling every aspect with remarkable expertise and professionalism. Their ability to coordinate with the hospital and navigate insurance challenges was truly impressive. Joe and his team were responsive, transparent, and deeply committed to achieving a fair outcome. Their dedication and client-focused approach made an otherwise overwhelming process seamless. Highly recommend their services without hesitation.
I absolutely cannot recommend this firm enough. I had an accident where I was originally blamed but I had a dash cam that showed I wasn't at fault. The other insurance attempted to pay a very small amount even though both vehicles were totaled and I was taken to the hospital with issues that are lifelong. I received numerous calls every day from attorneys but they never made me feel heard. After a ton of research, I contacted Mullen and Mullen and they came to meet with me the next day. Started working on my case immediately and were excellent at communicating and getting me what I needed every step of the way. The final settlement was seven times what I was originally offered. Josh was very upfront about everything and explained in language I understood to the point where I never had a question. There is a reason this firm has 5 stars and the reason is that they are the best. Stop searching, contact Mullen and Mullen, be patient and you'll be extremely happy with the results.
Honestly the best law firm ever, the process was easy to understand, and they are upfront about everything, keeping you inform about what is happening with your case every step of the way. They handle everything for you to make sure you are done right! Josh was too awesome! Make sure that he is with your case as well, he'll do you right. Now, this is my first time dealing with legal issues with a car insurance trying to get rid of me as soon as they can, but when I tell you that they made it felt like a piece of cake! Excellent work!

2026 Update: These were the first and only accident lawyers that I contacted with I was involved in an recent accident because I knew I will be well taken cared of. Everyone that I worked with, including the receptionists was kind, patient, and professional. They let me know what will happen step by step and how long it may take, and immediately answered all my possible questions. Zero Complaints at all, if you are patient with them, they will take care of you like First Class.
Josh Banks is amazing! After being in a very bad car accident and having to go through a lot of therapy and it was hard, after almost 2 years we finally settled and Josh didn’t allow the insurance company or anybody to take advantage of me or low ball me. He helped me every step of the way and was very professional, helpful and definitely knew what he was doing. Thank you Josh and Mullen & Mullen for everything you’ve done for me!
I can't possibly recommend this law firm more. Had a vehicle accident with the other driver blaming me and contacted Mullen and Mullen. Met with me the very next morning at a place I chose and started working on my case the same day. From doctor visits to dealing with the other insurance company, it was extremely easy with them handling it. Josh stayed in contact the entire time giving me updates and what step they were on with the process. I had zero experience in this and I now feel like a pro with how much he explained and the detail he gave. Save yourself time and energy and just stick with this firm.
I appreciate Joshua and the rest of the Mullen and Mullen law firm for helping me during this time. It was definitely a process when accidents occur but this team was truly there. They communicate and educated me on the process. I really appreciate the team at Mullen and Mullen. I recommend them to anyone.
After my car accident, Joseph Morrison, provided the expert guidance I needed. They were honest, responsive, and worked tirelessly on my case. I am very happy with the results and would definitely recommend Mullen & Mullen to anyone in need of a great personal injury lawyer. Thanks again.
Overall my experience with Mullen & Mullen was great! Extremely grateful for the entire team. Since the beginning they all made me feel like I was in great hands and the support was phenomenal. They kept in touch with me throughout my recovery made sure I was healing properly from my injury, always answered all the questions I had promptly and kept me in the loop with my case. Highly recommend this Law Firm to anyone who is seeking legal representation.
THE REAL DEAL !
No bullshit.
They care about YOUR WELL BEING.
JACK-My attorney personally called me
KIM C- Great communication paralegal/legal aid
MATT-Case advisor, got me GOID HEALTHCARE
Mullen & Mullen made the entire process after my car accident so much easier. They allowed me to focus on healing while they took care of everything else, from dealing with the insurance company to handling all the details I didn’t have the energy for. They always answered all of my questions truthfully and upfront without giving me the run around or being hard to reach.

I especially want to shout out Greg, who communicated with me every step of the way and always made sure I knew exactly where we were in the process. His updates and transparency made everything feel so much less stressful.

I’m very grateful for their help and highly recommend them!!!

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.

Why Choose Mullen & Mullen to Handle Your Case?

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.

Shane, Joseph and Regis have 104 years of combined experience practicing personal injury law.

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.

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.

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.

IS YOUR CLAIM VIABLE?

At Mullen & Mullen, we prioritize settling the majority of the claims we accept, much like most lawyers do. However, what sets us apart from other personal injury lawyers in Fort Worth is your increased potential to secure a more substantial settlement.

In order to give your claim the best chance of success, it must establish certain elements by proving them through a “preponderance of the evidence,” which means the likelihood is greater than 50% that the negligence of the other party led to your injuries.

Here’s what we assess:

Did The At-Fault Party Owe You A Duty Of Care?

To establish legal liability, you must demonstrate that the defendant owed you a duty of care. “Duty of care” essentially means acting with reasonable care in situations that could potentially harm someone. For instance, your doctor owes you a duty of care due to their extensive training and expertise, but if you seek advice about allergenic ingredients from a grocery store clerk, you likely don’t have a personal injury claim since they don’t owe a duty of care in that context.

Was The Duty Of Care Breached?

Next, you must establish that the negligent party breached their duty of care, which can be particularly challenging, especially in medical malpractice cases. This breach essentially means proving that the at-fault party acted unreasonably in a given situation. For example, while driving, you have a duty of care to operate your vehicle safely, and texting while driving leading to an accident constitutes a breach of that duty. However, swerving to avoid road debris and causing an accident may not constitute a breach, as it’s a reasonable action in such circumstances.

Did You Suffer Damages As A Result Of The Breach?

You must also demonstrate that the breach in the duty of care directly led to your injuries. Insurers often attempt to attribute your injuries to unrelated causes, such as a prior accident. Our personal injury lawyers excel at disproving these claims and showing that your injuries indeed resulted from the negligent actions of the at-fault party.

Did Your Damages Occur Within The Past 2 Years?

Texas imposes a relatively short 2-year “statute of limitations,” meaning you must file your legal claim within two years of the accident date. Failing to do so can result in your claim being dismissed by the court. Although two years may seem ample, in the legal realm, it’s a tight timeframe. Filing your claim promptly is essential as it allows for better evidence collection and prevents the at-fault party from building a robust defense.

Did You Avoid Critical Mistakes?

Texas law acknowledges imperfection but demands vigilance to avoid specific errors. For instance, posting anything on social media, no matter how innocuous it may seem, is unwise, as insurers can manipulate your posts against you. Furthermore, Texas operates as a “partial fault state,” which means you can be held partially responsible for your injuries, reducing the amount owed by the at-fault party. Consulting a personal injury lawyer promptly is advisable to steer clear of costly errors and ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.

CLIENT SUCCESS STORY

Witness the demonstration of our legal expertise in this compelling account, which showcases how a client secured a substantial settlement of $962,500.00 for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident:

In this case, a truck driver was traveling westward on US 287 but failed to exercise due diligence, leading to an unsafe lane change. Regrettably, this reckless maneuver resulted in a collision with another motorist, who suffered a significant neck injury. It’s noteworthy that the injured party also had a history of major spine surgery in her medical records.

Pre-existing medical conditions, unfortunately, often serve as a pretext for insurance companies to diminish their financial responsibility. It was anticipated that they would contend that some of the driver’s injuries were attributable to her previous major spine surgery.

However, it’s essential to understand that Texas law adheres to a legal principle known as “The Eggshell Doctrine.” This doctrine dictates that the plaintiff should be compensated for all injuries stemming from the accident, even if pre-existing conditions worsened these injuries, thus recognizing the concept of “you must take the plaintiff as you find them.”

To bolster the client’s case, Shane Mullen recommended that all new and exacerbated symptoms be meticulously documented. Consequently, the client diligently obtained medical documentation for any fresh symptoms that manifested following the accident. Subsequently, the client underwent multiple laminectomies to rectify the damaged vertebrae.

As negotiations with the insurer commenced, they predictably argued that the force of the accident was insufficient to necessitate surgery. In response, Shane drew attention to the meticulously documented new symptoms and emphasized that even a moderate accident could exacerbate pre-existing injuries.

In the end, the insurer was compelled to disburse a settlement of $962,500.00. Notably, the client benefited from a reduced 29% case fee, amounting to savings of $70,000, as her claim was resolved without the need for initiating a lawsuit.
