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!!!
I had a great experience with Mullen & Mullen after my car accident. Josh was professional, responsive, and kept me informed throughout the process. Being injured in an accident is scary, but knowing that I had people advocating for me was a tremendous help because I could focus on my healthcare needs while Mullen & Mullen handled the financial aspect. I was very happy with the settlement they were able to obtain for me and would gladly recommend them to anyone in a similar situation.

I was in an accident while riding in and Uber, and Josh with Mullen & Mullen was amazing getting my settlement to me in a timely manner! They were thorough!
I hired Mullen & Mullen for an accident and am so pleased with my experience. They were extremely quick to get me the care I needed immediately, handled all paperwork and stayed in contact throughout the entire settlement process which was also quick. Highly recommend, and extra special shoutout to my case representative Josh Banks, he made the process so smooth and handled everything. 5 stars. Thank you, Mullen & Mullen.

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.

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.

LOWEST PRE-SUIT CONTINGENCY FEE

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.

DO YOU HAVE A STRONG CLAIM?

At Mullen & Mullen, we specialize in settling the majority of the claims we accept, much like most other lawyers. However, what sets Mullen & Mullen apart from other personal injury attorneys in Fort Worth is our commitment to maximizing the settlement funds that end up in your pocket.

To bolster your claim’s chances of success, certain key elements must be substantiated through a “preponderance of the evidence.” This essentially means that the odds are in your favor, greater than 50%, that the other party’s negligence directly caused your injuries.

Here’s what we assess:

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

To establish legal liability, it’s crucial to demonstrate that the defendant owed you a duty of care. “Duty of care” simply implies that an individual must exercise reasonable care when placed in a situation that could potentially harm someone.

For instance, your doctor owes you a duty of care due to their extensive education and professional expertise. They are expected to act with a level of competence beyond that of a layperson.

Conversely, if you inquire with a grocery store clerk about a product’s ingredients that may cause allergic reactions, you likely don’t have grounds for a personal injury claim. The clerk’s duty does not extend to providing medical advice; they are paid to distribute and sell food.

Was The Duty Of Care Breached?

The next step involves demonstrating that the negligent party breached their duty of care. This can be particularly challenging, especially in medical malpractice cases.

Essentially, you need to show that the at-fault party acted unreasonably in a specific situation. For example, in the context of driving, you have a duty of care to operate your vehicle in a reasonable manner that doesn’t endanger other motorists. Texting while driving, resulting in an accident, likely constitutes a breach of this duty.

Conversely, if you swerve to avoid road debris and inadvertently cause an accident, you are less likely to have breached your duty of care, as you acted in a manner that a reasonable person would likely have in the same situation.

Did You Experience Damages As A Result Of The Breach?

The subsequent requirement is to 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 previous accidents.

This is where our personal injury lawyers excel. We possess the expertise to refute the insurer’s claims and establish that your injuries resulted from the negligent behavior of their customer.

Did Your Damages Occur In The Past 2 Years?

In Texas, there is a relatively short two-year “statute of limitations.” This means that you must initiate your legal claim within two years from the date of your accident, or the court may dismiss your claim.

While two years might appear ample, it is relatively brief in the legal realm. Filing your claim promptly is advisable as it enables you to gather evidence more effectively. Waiting provides the at-fault party more time to prepare their defense, which may not be in your best interest.

Did You Avoid Critical Errors?

Texas law allows for imperfections, but certain mistakes must be avoided. For example, sharing content on social media, even seemingly innocent posts, is not advisable, as insurers may use them against you.

Texas operates under a “partial fault” system, meaning you can be partially responsible for your injuries. This can reduce the amount the at-fault party owes you in proportion to your responsibility.

Hence, consulting a personal injury lawyer promptly is wise. They can guide you in avoiding costly mistakes and ensure that you receive the compensation you rightfully deserve.

SUCCESS STORY: SECURING $962,500 FOR A NECK INJURY IN A TRUCK ACCIDENT

In a compelling illustration of our legal expertise, we present the following narrative detailing how we achieved a remarkable $962,500 settlement for a client who suffered a neck injury in a commercial truck accident:

The incident transpired as a truck driver was traveling westbound on US 287, yet a momentary lapse in attention led to an unsafe lane change. Regrettably, this action resulted in a collision with another motorist, causing her to sustain a neck injury. It is noteworthy that the injured motorist had previously undergone major spine surgery.

Regrettably, the existence of pre-existing medical conditions often furnishes insurance companies with a pretext to limit their financial liability. We fully expected the insurance company to argue that the driver’s injuries were, at least in part, attributable to her prior significant spine surgery.

While it is true that a prior surgery can have an impact on current injuries, it is vital to note that Texas law operates under a principle known as “The Eggshell Doctrine.” This doctrine dictates that the injured party must be taken as they are found, meaning they are entitled to compensation for all injuries stemming from the accident, even if pre-existing conditions exacerbate those injuries.

In a strategic move to bolster our client’s case, attorney Shane Mullen recommended a meticulous documentation of any new or intensified symptoms following the accident. Consequently, the client underwent multiple laminectomies to address the damaged vertebrae.

When negotiations with the insurer commenced, their stance predictably contested the notion that the accident’s force could necessitate surgical intervention. In response, Shane Mullen drew attention to the well-documented emergence of new symptoms, underscoring that even a moderate accident had the potential to aggravate pre-existing injuries.

Ultimately, our determined efforts compelled the insurer to settle the claim for a substantial $962,500. Our client also benefited from a reduced case fee of 29%, resulting in savings of $70,000, as her claim was successfully resolved without the need for litigation.
