Join Clients That Rave
We have hundreds of reviews with a 5-star rating by real clients.
I highly recommend Mullen & Mullen Law Firm. I was rear-ended by a semi-truck and lost work, needed rehab, was looking at mounting medical bills AND the truck company’s insurance company wouldn’t even respond to my communications. Joe Morrison, my attorney at Mullen & Mullen, and his team took over and got me a great settlement. Best of all, I barely had to do a thing. As busy business owner, my time is extremely valuable. The high level of service that the “Mullen” team provided was exactly what I needed. They went the extra mile to earn my trust and respect. Hiring an attorney can be a daunting task. I’m just so glad that I didn’t hire one of those TV ad truck accident firms. –Dan Levin
Shane Mullen is a great lawyer. He is not only great at his job, but he really cares about his clients! I was rear ended last December, and he not only got me in to see a chiropractor to start my healing but called them to let them know to call me and set up an appointment for me right away! They also referred me to a great auto body repair shop that had me up and going in no time. Then when it came time to deal with Geico about a settlement Shane went above and beyond to get me more than I expected. In my opinion when an accident happens you want the best. Best lawyer, best doctors, and best repair shop. I got all of that and then some by calling Mullen and Mullen! I would recommend them to anyone. All my calls were returned, and emails answered so quickly, and his assistant Natalie is so sweet and patient! Always so ready to answer all my questions! –Michele Lambe

Client Success Story: Achieving a $962,500 Settlement for a Neck Injury Arising from a Commercial Truck Collision
Experience our legal expertise in action through this case narrative, where a client achieved a settlement of $962,500.00 for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident.
In this particular situation, a truck driver was traveling west on US 287 but failed to exercise proper caution, resulting in an unsafe lane change. This reckless maneuver led to a collision with another motorist, causing her to suffer a neck injury. It’s important to note that the injured party had a history of significant spine surgery in her medical records.
Regrettably, insurance companies often exploit pre-existing medical conditions in an attempt to limit their payout. They argued that some of the injuries might have been related to her previous spine surgery.
However, in accordance with Texas law, the “Eggshell Doctrine” prevailed. This principle dictates that the plaintiff should receive compensation for all injuries resulting from the accident, regardless of any exacerbation due to pre-existing conditions.
To ensure our client’s success, Shane Mullen recommended comprehensive documentation of any new or aggravated symptoms following the accident, along with obtaining medical evidence of these symptoms. The client underwent multiple laminectomies to address the damaged vertebrae.
When negotiations commenced with the insurer, they predictably argued that the accident’s force could not have necessitated surgery. In response, Shane highlighted the documented new symptoms and emphasized that even a moderate accident could worsen pre-existing injuries.
Ultimately, the insurer was compelled to pay $962,500.00. Furthermore, our reduced 29% case fee resulted in the client saving $70,000, as her claim was settled without the need for a lawsuit!

Statute of Limitations in Missouri
In Missouri, you have five years from the date of your accident to file your personal injury claim. This sounds like a long time. But remember that defendants intentionally lose or destroy evidence as soon as they can. Preservation of evidence, and securing witnesses, are crucial to your case. So, you’re wise to file your claim as soon after your accident as you’re able.

Client Success Story
To witness our legal expertise in action, delve into this concise narrative illustrating how one of our clients secured a $962,500.00 settlement for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident:
On a westward journey along US 287, a truck driver’s momentary lapse of attention led to an unsafe lane change, resulting in a collision with a fellow motorist who suffered a neck injury. It’s worth noting that the injured party had a significant prior history of spine surgery in her medical records.
Unfortunately, insurance companies often attempt to leverage pre-existing conditions to reduce their payout obligations. We foresaw their potential argument, suggesting that at least some of the driver’s injuries were linked to her earlier spine surgery.
However, under Texas law, a principle known as “The Eggshell Doctrine” is applied. This doctrine mandates that the plaintiff should be taken as they are found, entitling them to compensation for all injuries resulting from the accident, even if pre-existing conditions exacerbated those injuries.
To bolster our client’s case, Shane Mullen recommended meticulous documentation of any new or exacerbated symptoms arising after the accident. Consequently, the client underwent multiple laminectomies to address damaged vertebrae.
During negotiations with the insurer, their expected stance was that the accident’s impact was insufficient to necessitate surgery. Shane countered this argument by emphasizing the well-documented new symptoms and the potential for even a moderate accident to exacerbate pre-existing injuries.
Ultimately, the insurer was compelled to settle for $962,500.00, delivering a substantial win for the client. Additionally, our client saved $70,000 through our reduced 29% case fee, as her claim was resolved without the need for a lawsuit.
Is Your Personal Injury Claim Viable?
When someone else causes your harm, it always seems obvious to understand exactly what happened and who’s at fault. But Missouri law and your own practical understanding are two different things.
Following is what our personal injury lawyers look for to see if you have a truly winnable claim:
Did Someone Owe You a Duty of Care?
To have a valid personal injury claim, the other party must have owed you a duty of care. For example, a doctor owes you a duty of care because they charge for their services and have a level of expertise above and beyond the lay person.
However, a friend telling you about a natural supplement that relieves pain does not owe you a duty of care. So, you can possibly sue the doctor. But you can’t sue your friend.
Was the Duty of Care Breached?
Speaking generally, law allows people to be imperfect and make mistakes. However, they generally must exercise the same care a reasonable person would in that situation.
If they act differently than a reasonable person would, you likely have a personal injury claim. For example, someone driving drunk is not acting like a reasonable person. Therefore, you have a claim you can pursue if they cause you injuries and damages.
Did the Breach Cause Your Damages?
Insurers love this one because they know how to lever it to their advantage. They agree that you’re injured. However, they’ll argue their customer’s actions didn’t cause your injuries.
For example, they may use Facebook pictures you post after an accident to show that the accident didn’t cause your injuries (even if that really was the case).
When injured and seeking compensation, you must show the breach in the duty of care resulted in your injuries.
Did Your Damages Happen in the Past 5 Years?
Missouri’s statute of limitations says you have five years from the date of your accident to file your claim. Wait longer than that, and your claim will be tossed out in court.
Five years is a long time. However, you still should pursue your claim with a personal injury attorney as soon after your accident as possible. That’s because the longer you wait, the more time the other party must destroy evidence and mount their defense. Don’t give them any more time than is necessary.
Don’t Make Devastating Mistakes
Personal injury law allows you to be imperfect. Missouri is a “partial fault” state, which means that you can still recover compensation for your injuries, even if you bear some fault.
At the same time, you can still make game-changing mistakes that could cost you your entire claim. For example, those Facebook pictures could be enough to do just that.
You can also make lesser mistakes like apologizing or failing to follow your doctor’s orders. Those mistakes may not cost you your claim entirely. But they still could cost you a lot of money.
This is another reason to hire a personal injury lawyer immediately. One can tell you what mistakes to avoid so you get the most compensation possible for your injuries.
