I cannot recommend this law firm enough. After a serious accident involving a truck and a semi, I was left with significant injuries and unsure of where to turn. From the moment I reached out, their team took charge and handled everything with professionalism and care. They not only made sure my medical needs were addressed but also fought tirelessly to secure the compensation I deserved.Thanks to their expertise, I didn’t have to worry about a thing. They kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I was comfortable with the process. Ultimately, they helped me win a significant settlement that covered both my medical bills and provided financial security for my future.If you’re facing a tough personal injury case, these are the people you want in your corner. Their dedication and skill made all the difference, and I’m incredibly grateful for everything they’ve done for me.
Mullen and Mullen took care of me and kept me informed throughout the entire process. Greg was very professional and informed me of all my options. Would recommend for personal injury representation
Josh did a really good job for me on my accident case! I would recommend Mullen and Mullen to anyone!
So grateful we called Mullen & Mullen after our car accident. They made sure we got medical care ASAP, as well as handled everything with the insurance company. Greg really made the whole process painless and always kept us up to date with the status/ progress with our case. Would recommend Mullen & Mullen to anyone
Mullen & Mullen is a great law firm I would definitely recommend. From the start with Micheal F. He showed great compassion for our case and made me feel like he really wanted to help. To the end with Greg, he was very knowledgeable and only excepted what he believed we deserved nothing less. If you are ever in an accident you should definitely reach out to them!
When my second auto accident occured last year, my first call out of the hospital was to Mullen and Mullen. Shane Mullen had represented me in an accident 2 years earlier and I wanted his counsel again. This is an attorney who, not only understands how the system works, but also understands what the victims are experiencing. For me there was no other choice. Everyone in this firm is understanding and sympathetic and that's why they are the best. Shane was able to get me the medical attention I needed and the best settlement. This is a first class law firm who will help you through the ordeal.
I had the pleasure of working with Josh Banks and Mullen & Mullen after my car accident. I couldn't be more satisfied with the outcome. From the start, Josh was professional, attentive, and kept me informed every step of the way. He truly went above and beyond to handle my case and made sure all my concerns were addressed promptly. The entire team at Mullen & Mullen was supportive and responsive, and Josh's dedication really made a difference. I highly recommend Josh Banks and Mullen & Mullen to anyone in need of a reliable, experienced personal injury lawyer. They made the entire process stress-free and got me the results I was hoping for.
I recently finalized a car accident settlement with the help of Josh Banks. He got me way more than I was expecting. He answered any questions I had, and offered me all the options I had to choose from. It took a little longer than I wanted but in the end it was worth the wait. I'm extremely satisfied I had him as my lawyer.
Let me start by saying, that I couldn’t be happier with choosing Mullen and Mullen to represent me for my personal injury case. From my first phone call to the final result, I was treated with respect and absolute courtesy. While searching for a firm to represent me, and going through dozens of reviews, I noticed that the number one complaint from most people was, they weren’t kept in touch with in what could be a very lengthy process. The attorneys who represented me, Gregg and Josh, never left me hanging for an answer, and always returned my calls in a very timely manner, keeping me up-to-date with every detail of my case. To say they were professional is an understatement, and I’m so pleased with the final result that words aren’t enough to express my gratitude. And every time I called, B, usually answered, and was always very upbeat and direct to my call promptly, or made sure I received a return call as soon as possible. I highly recommend using Mullen & Mullen if you’ve been involved in an accident, resulting in a personal injury.Gary SchmidtLittle Elm, Texas

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
