INJURED AND NOT AT FAULT?
NO FEES UNLESS YOU COLLECT
In the last 3 years, we’ve made TopVerdict’s annual Texas “Top 50 Personal Injury Settlements” list 43 times.
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.
According to TopVerdict.com, our Dallas attorneys consistently achieve some of the highest recoveries in the state of Texas. As a matter of fact, in the last three years we’ve made their “Texas Top 50 Personal Injury Settlements” list 43 times. For example, in 2021 one of our claims made the Top 10 list, eight made the Top 11-20 list, and ten made the Top 21-50 list. 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 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.

Mullen & Mullen is fantastic. I highly recommend. They helped me and my wife both get maximum policy limits on our wreck from a drunk driver… Thank you; we are really happy with the outcome… – Jimmy Casillas
I contacted Mullen & Mullen after I got into a bad collision with another driver. When I stepped into their office, they were professional and courteous. My attorney took the time to explain all of my options and answered every question I had. Ultimately, they got me a great settlement far greater than I expected. -Emily Dueck Arantes
I want to share our experience with Mullen & Mullen who Truly is a five star law firm. My daughter was involved in a serious accident she was 8 1/2 months pregnant and she suffered serious injuries and lost her baby. The person that hit her had no drivers license and no insurance. Not deterred by this Joseph Morrison was masterful at working our case. He was able to get our insurance company to agree to the maximum settlement under our uninsured/underinsured coverage. In addition he was also able to get our health insurance company to drop a huge lien against our settlement. Joe Morrison and his team were so empathetic to our situation. Even though there are limits to what you can be awarded under uninsured/underinsured they never made us feel unimportant. They fought for us and we felt as though they truly cared about us and wanted to have the best possible outcome. Joe Morrison was a true champion for our family and we highly recommend him and their firm. We are so glad that we chose Mullen and Mullen and so grateful for the quality services they provided. We all feel they are the best choice among many and were the right choice for our family. -Lisa Tennant

One major insurer’s report says the average personal injury lawyer wins their client 2-3 times the insurance company’s initial offer. We routinely get clients 10-15x. And some even get 20x.
Observe our legal prowess in action as we share the story of a client who secured a substantial settlement of $962,500.00 for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident.
In this particular incident, a truck driver was traveling west on US 287 but failed to exercise proper caution, leading to an unsafe lane change. This reckless maneuver resulted in a collision with another motorist, causing her to suffer a neck injury. It’s worth noting that the injured party had a history of significant spine surgery in her medical records.
Regrettably, insurance companies often attempt to exploit pre-existing medical conditions to limit their liability. We foresaw their argument that some of the injuries might have been connected to her prior spine surgery.
However, in accordance with Texas law, the “Eggshell Doctrine” takes precedence. This principle dictates that the plaintiff should receive compensation for all injuries stemming from the accident, irrespective of any pre-existing conditions that may have exacerbated them.
To secure our client’s victory, Shane Mullen recommended meticulous documentation of any new or aggravated symptoms arising after the accident. This entailed obtaining medical evidence supporting these symptoms. Subsequently, the client underwent multiple laminectomies to address the damaged vertebrae.
When negotiations commenced with the insurer, they predictably contested that the accident’s force could not have warranted surgery. In response, Shane emphasized the well-documented new symptoms and underscored that even a moderate accident could worsen pre-existing injuries.
In the end, the insurer was compelled to pay out $962,500.00. What’s even more noteworthy, our reduced 29% case fee translated to a $70,000.00 savings for the client, as her claim was successfully settled without the need for litigation!

In Texas, you are granted a two-year window from the date of your accident to initiate your personal injury claim.
Although this might seem like a substantial timeframe, it’s important to note that defendants often purposefully misplace or destroy evidence promptly. Preserving crucial evidence and securing witnesses are pivotal aspects of building a strong case. Therefore, it’s prudent to file your claim as promptly as possible after your accident to safeguard your legal interests.

At Mullen & Mullen, our lawyers have a combined 95 years of experience. That means we’ve seen all kinds of personal injury cases and know how to handle each. The following are the types of cases we see most frequently, but we are not limited to these:
Speaking at a general level, personal injury claims need a few strong criteria to be successful. Ultimately, you’ll know for certain after talking to one of our lawyers. Here’s generally what we’ll look for:
You must have a legal or formal relationship or obligation with the defendant. For example, if you fall and get hurt at a neighbor’s house, they do owe you a duty of care and you might be able to hold them liable for your injuries. However, if you have a friend who’s a doctor and they give you advice while you meet for lunch, you can’t hold them legally responsible. That’s because they don’t owe you a duty of care in that situation. However, if you see them at their office and pay for their services, they do owe you a duty of care.
In legal terms, this means the defendant must act with the watchfulness, attention, and prudence that a reasonable person would under the same circumstances. Failing to meet this duty means that you can possibly hold the person financially liable if their actions caused you injuries or damages.
While you may experience an injury you believe happened as a direct result of someone else’s negligence, you must prove it. This can be quite difficult in some cases. For example, whiplash may not show up until several days after a car accident. Insurers will work hard to show that such an injury happened for some reason unrelated to the car accident.
In Texas, you have two years from the date of your accident to file your claim. Wait longer than that, and you can never again seek compensation for your injuries. At the same time, there are some exceptions to the “statute of limitations” as it is called. But these only apply to specific situations. So, you’re wise to pursue your claim as fast as possible.
You don’t necessarily have to be perfect and completely blameless. But unfortunately, you can make mistakes that mitigate the compensation you receive, or even cause you to lose it all. For example, if you claim to be hurt by a slip and fall and then post pictures of yourself hiking on Facebook a few days later, you might lose your claim entirely. Or, if after a car accident you choose to ignore your doctor’s advice, the insurer can argue you had some blame for your injuries too. In that case, you could possibly miss out on some compensation you would otherwise get.
Call (972) 947-3370 to talk to a Plano personal injury attorney right now. We won’t put any pressure on you to hire us on the spot. Simply learn how we’ll approach your case and get some excellent free advice. Make your decision only when you feel 100% ready. Do remember though, that the Texas statute of limitations gives you just 2 years from the date of your accident to file a claim.
We’ll come to your home or hospital room if it makes it easier on you! Phone and Zoom consultations are also available. You can call us, or use the form or chat feature on this page to request a free consultation now.
The Mullen & Mullen family is here to address your concerns and make the path to recovery smooth. There are no fees to get started and you pay $0 if we don’t settle your case.
