Mullen & Mullen Law Firm on the map
INJURED AND NOT AT FAULT?
NO FEES UNLESS YOU COLLECT
In the last four years, our firm made Top Verdict’s “Top 50” Personal Injury Settlements in Texas list 44 times, and the “Top 100” list 70 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 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. 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.

Our dedicated local team is characterized by a steadfast commitment to your welfare and a strong work ethic.
Mullen & Mullen has been championing the legal rights of North Texans since 1983. Over the course of four decades, our legal experts have assisted numerous individuals in successfully navigating the claims process, recovering from their physical 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.
We typically settle most of the claims we accept, a common practice among lawyers. However, what sets Mullen & Mullen apart from other personal injury attorneys in Fort Worth is the potential for you to receive a higher settlement.
To maximize the chances of a successful claim, certain elements must be proven by a “preponderance of the evidence,” indicating that the likelihood is greater than 50% that the other party’s negligence caused your injuries.
Here’s what we assess:
To establish legal liability, you must demonstrate that the defendant owed you a duty of care. This means they had a responsibility to act reasonably in situations where harm could be reasonably anticipated.
For instance, your doctor owes you a duty of care due to their extensive training and expertise. They charge for their services, and they have a professional obligation to provide competent care.
Conversely, if you ask a grocery store clerk about a product’s ingredients that could potentially trigger allergic reactions, you likely do not have grounds for a personal injury claim. The clerk’s role is to distribute and sell products, not to offer medical advice.
You must also establish that the negligent party failed to uphold their duty of care. This can be challenging, particularly in cases like medical malpractice.
Essentially, you need to show that the at-fault party acted unreasonably in a specific situation. For instance, when driving, you have a duty of care to operate your vehicle in a manner that does not jeopardize other motorists. Texting while driving and causing an accident is a clear breach of that duty.
However, if you swerve to avoid debris in the road and an accident ensues, you likely did not breach your duty of care. Your actions were reasonable, and it’s unlikely that anyone can sue you for damages resulting from the accident.
You must also demonstrate that the breach of duty of care directly led to your injuries. Insurers often try to argue that your injuries resulted from unrelated causes.
For example, they might claim that injuries you previously experienced from a different accident caused your current injuries and not their customer’s negligence. Our personal injury lawyers are experienced in refuting such arguments and proving that your injuries indeed occurred due to the negligence of the other party.
In Texas, there is a relatively short 2-year “statute of limitations.” This means you must file your legal claim within two years of the date of your accident. Failing to do so could result in the court dismissing your claim if you attempt to file it later.
Although two years may seem like a reasonable timeframe, in the legal realm, it is relatively short. It’s wise to file your claim as soon as possible after your accident, as delaying makes it harder to gather evidence, and it gives the at-fault party more time to build their defense.
While Texas law allows for imperfections, it’s essential to avoid certain mistakes. For example, posting anything on social media, no matter how innocuous it seems, is ill-advised, as insurers can use it against you.
Insurers may not necessarily aim to dismiss your claim entirely, but they may seek to reduce their payout because Texas follows a “partial fault” system, which means you could be found partially responsible for your injuries. This could result in a reduction in the amount the at-fault party owes you.
This is another compelling reason to consult with a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to receive guidance on avoiding potential pitfalls and ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve.
For a compelling demonstration of our legal expertise in action, delve into this concise account showcasing how a client 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 regrettably failed to exercise due caution and executed an unsafe lane change. This reckless maneuver resulted in a collision with another motorist, who subsequently suffered a neck injury. Notably, the injured party had a significant spinal surgery in her medical history, which introduced a complicating factor.
It’s worth noting that insurance companies often utilize pre-existing medical conditions as a means to limit their payout obligations. In this case, we anticipated that the insurance company would argue that the driver’s injuries were, at least in part, attributable to her prior spinal surgery.
However, it’s crucial to understand that under Texas law, there exists a legal principle known as “The Eggshell Doctrine.” This principle dictates that one must take the injured party as they are, meaning they should be compensated for all injuries resulting from the accident, even if pre-existing conditions exacerbated those injuries.
To bolster the client’s case, our attorney, Shane Mullen, recommended meticulous documentation of any new or exacerbated symptoms that arose after the accident. This involved obtaining medical records that documented these new symptoms. The client underwent multiple laminectomies to rectify damaged vertebrae.
When negotiations with the insurer commenced, it was predictable that they would contest the claim, asserting that the accident’s force couldn’t have necessitated surgery. In response, Shane emphasized the documented emergence of new symptoms and underscored that even a moderately forceful accident could exacerbate pre-existing injuries.
Ultimately, the insurer was compelled to disburse a settlement of $962,500.00. What’s more, the client 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.
