IS YOUR CLAIM VIABLE?

The majority of claims we accept do result in settlements, a common outcome across legal practice. Nevertheless, what sets Mullen & Mullen apart from other personal injury attorneys in Fort Worth is our commitment to maximizing the funds you receive.

To enhance the likelihood of a successful claim, certain critical elements need to be substantiated through a “preponderance of the evidence,” meaning it’s more than 50% likely that the other party’s negligence caused your injuries.

Here’s what we scrutinize:

Was There A Duty Of Care?

To establish legal liability, you must demonstrate that the defendant owed you a duty of care. “Duty of care” essentially implies that individuals should exercise reasonable care in situations that could foreseeably cause harm to others.

Your doctor, for instance, has a duty of care due to their specialized training. They possess expertise beyond that of an ordinary person.

Conversely, if you inquire about potential allergenic ingredients from a grocery store clerk, you generally don’t have grounds for a personal injury claim. Their role is to distribute and sell food, not provide medical advice about ingredients.

Was The Duty Of Care Breached?

Subsequently, you must prove that the negligent party failed to meet their duty of care, which can be particularly challenging, particularly in medical malpractice cases.

Essentially, you need to establish that the at-fault party acted unreasonably in a specific scenario.

For instance, consider driving. You have a duty to drive in a reasonable manner that does not endanger other motorists. If you cause an accident while texting and driving, you likely breached your duty of care towards other drivers.

Conversely, if you swerve to avoid road debris and cause an accident, you likely haven’t violated your duty of care. Your actions align with what a reasonable person would do in that situation, making it unlikely for anyone to sue you for resulting damages.

Did You Suffer Damages Due To The Breach?

You must demonstrate that the breach of the duty of care directly resulted in your injuries. Insurers often attempt to argue that your injuries stemmed from unrelated causes.

For instance, you might have pre-existing injuries from a prior accident, and the insurer may claim that those are responsible for your current injuries, not their customer’s negligence.

This is where our personal injury lawyers excel. We possess the expertise to debunk such arguments and prove that your injuries indeed occurred due to the negligence of the at-fault party.

Did Your Damages Occur Within The Last 2 Years?

Texas has a relatively brief 2-year “statute of limitations.” This means you must file your legal claim within two years from the date of your accident, or the court will dismiss your claim.

While two years might seem like an ample duration, in the legal realm, it’s quite limited. Filing your claim promptly is advisable, as waiting makes it harder to gather evidence, and the at-fault party gains more time to build their defense. Don’t offer them any unnecessary assistance.

Did You Avoid Significant Errors?

Texas law doesn’t require you to be flawless. You don’t need to become a recluse, living in fear that any misstep will jeopardize your claim.

However, you should exercise caution to avoid specific mistakes. For example, posting anything on social media, regardless of its seeming innocence, is unwise. Insurers can manipulate anything you share against you.

In Texas, being a “partial fault state” means you can be found partially responsible for your injuries, potentially reducing the compensation owed by the at-fault party. This is another reason why consulting with a personal injury lawyer early on is advisable. They can provide guidance to avoid mistakes that might cost you thousands of dollars or even jeopardize your claim entirely.

CLIENT SUCCESS STORY

Discover our legal expertise in action through this compelling narrative of how one of our clients secured a substantial $962,500.00 settlement for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident:

In a scenario on US 287, a truck driver was traveling westward when an unfortunate lapse in attention led to an unsafe lane change. This reckless maneuver resulted in a collision with a motorist who suffered a neck injury. It is worth noting that this motorist had a significant prior spinal surgery in her medical history.

Unfortunately, pre-existing medical conditions can be leveraged by insurance companies to reduce their liability. We anticipated that the insurer would contend that the motorist’s injuries were partially attributed to her previous major spine surgery.

While it is possible for prior surgeries to affect current injuries, Texas law follows the “Eggshell Doctrine.” This principle dictates that the plaintiff must be accepted as they are, irrespective of pre-existing conditions exacerbating their injuries. In other words, all injuries resulting from the accident should be compensated for.

To ensure our client’s success in her claim, Shane Mullen advised meticulous documentation of any new or aggravated symptoms. This involved obtaining medical records for any fresh symptoms that manifested post-accident. The client underwent multiple laminectomies to address damaged vertebrae.

When negotiations with the insurer commenced, they predictably asserted that the accident’s impact could not have necessitated surgery. In response, Shane underscored the documented emergence of new symptoms and emphasized that even a moderately severe accident could exacerbate pre-existing injuries.

In the end, the insurer was compelled to settle the claim for $962,500.00. Notably, our reduced 29% case fee saved the client $70,000 as her case was resolved without the need for litigation!
