Mullen & Mullen Law Firm: A Legacy of Excellence in Personal Injury Representation Across North Texas

Four Decades of Advocating for Injury Victims

In the complex and often overwhelming world of personal injury litigation, experience and dedication make all the difference. For over 40 years, Mullen & Mullen Law Firm has earned its reputation as one of North Texas’ premier personal injury practices, building a legacy of excellence through consistent results and unwavering client advocacy.

Operating from their headquarters in Dallas with offices throughout the region, this family-owned firm has transformed the personal injury landscape by combining insider knowledge of insurance practices with innovative client-centered approaches – establishing a model that puts more compensation in their clients’ pockets while providing exceptional representation.

The Insider Advantage: Understanding Insurance from the Inside Out

What truly distinguishes Mullen & Mullen from other personal injury firms in North Texas begins with its founding story. Attorney Regis L. Mullen established the firm in 1983 after serving as a Litigation Supervisor at Allstate Insurance Company. This insider experience provided him with comprehensive knowledge of how insurance companies evaluate, process, and defend against injury claims – insights that continue to inform the firm’s strategic approach today.

“Understanding the tactics liability carriers use to deny or reduce personal injury settlements gives us a distinct advantage,” explains a legal industry analyst familiar with the firm’s operations. “When a law firm’s founder has literally worked inside the insurance industry, they can anticipate defense strategies in ways most attorneys simply cannot.”

This foundational knowledge has been passed down and expanded through the firm’s leadership, including Managing Attorney Shane V. Mullen, who has been handling personal injury cases for over 21 years and has been recognized as a Texas Super Lawyer for three consecutive years.

Comprehensive Legal Expertise Across the Personal Injury Spectrum

Over four decades of practice, Mullen & Mullen has developed specialized expertise across the entire range of personal injury law, offering representation in:

Vehicle-Related Injuries

• Car accidents
• Commercial truck and 18-wheeler collisions
• Motorcycle crashes
• Rideshare (Uber/Lyft) incidents
• Bicycle and pedestrian accidents

Premises Liability

• Slip and fall incidents
• Negligent security cases
• Dangerous property conditions

Workplace and Specialized Injuries

• Work-related accidents
• Construction site injuries
• Dog bites and animal attacks
• Defective products
• Wrongful death claims

This depth of expertise ensures that regardless of how a client has been injured, the firm brings relevant experience and specialized knowledge to their representation.

The Financial Difference: Client-Centered Fee Structure

Perhaps one of the most notable ways Mullen & Mullen distinguishes itself in the competitive personal injury market is through its fee structure. While the industry standard for contingency fees typically ranges from 33.3% to 35% of settlements, Mullen & Mullen charges just 29% on claims that settle without litigation – a difference that can translate to thousands of additional dollars for clients.

This reduced fee structure stems from the firm’s fundamental belief that attorneys should not earn more than the injury victims they represent. The approach reflects a philosophy focused on maximizing client recovery rather than firm profits.

The financial benefits extend beyond fee structure. The firm employs full-time investigators and an in-house videographer, providing these services at no additional cost to clients – unlike many firms that pass these expenses on to the client.

Geographic Reach: Serving North Texas Communities

While maintaining their headquarters in Dallas at 1825 Market Center Boulevard, Mullen & Mullen has strategically expanded to serve communities throughout North Texas with offices in:

• Dallas (Main Office)
• Plano
• Frisco
• Fort Worth

This regional presence allows the firm to effectively represent clients throughout Dallas, Collin, and Tarrant Counties, providing accessible legal services to injury victims regardless of where they live or where their injury occurred.

The firm’s commitment to North Texas extends beyond its office locations. As longtime residents of the Dallas-Fort Worth area, the attorneys at Mullen & Mullen have deep connections to the local legal and medical communities – relationships that benefit their clients through enhanced coordination of services.

The Mullen Method: A Client-First Approach to Injury Law

What clients experience when working with Mullen & Mullen reflects a carefully developed methodology that places their needs at the center of the legal process:

Direct Attorney Access

Unlike high-volume firms where clients often struggle to speak directly with their attorneys, Mullen & Mullen ensures clients have direct access to their legal counsel – including providing attorney cell phone numbers for urgent matters.

Medical Coordination Without Upfront Costs

Through established relationships with medical specialists throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, the firm connects clients with quality healthcare providers who will delay billing until after case resolution – ensuring injured individuals receive necessary treatment regardless of their financial situation or insurance status.

Advanced Technology for Case Development

The firm utilizes state-of-the-art technology, including 3D imaging videos, to fully demonstrate the extent of clients’ injuries to insurance companies – a technique that helps maximize claim values by providing compelling visual evidence.

Comprehensive Investigation Services

With full-time investigators on staff, the firm conducts thorough investigations of accident circumstances, gathering essential evidence that strengthens negotiating positions with insurance companies.

Results That Speak Volumes

While philosophy and approach matter, results ultimately define a personal injury practice’s value. By this measure, Mullen & Mullen stands among the elite firms in Texas. According to TopVerdict.com, their attorneys have consistently achieved some of the highest recoveries in the state, with 43 settlements making the “Texas Top 50 Personal Injury Settlements” list over a recent four-year period.

These results include numerous multi-million-dollar settlements across various practice areas, with recent examples including:

• $6.15 million for a work accident
• $4 million for a wrongful death claim
• $2.98 million for a vehicle accident
• $2.55 million for another vehicle accident
• $2.25 million for a premises liability case

This track record has earned the firm recognition from prestigious organizations. Mullen & Mullen has been featured in Newsweek as one of the best law firms in the USA and has been awarded the title of Top Injury Law Firm in Dallas by Top Choice Awards for six consecutive years from 2019 through 2024.

Community Commitment: Beyond Legal Representation

Beyond their work for individual clients, Mullen & Mullen demonstrates a commitment to the North Texas community through charitable involvement and community support initiatives. Unlike national firms that simply maintain satellite offices in the region, Mullen & Mullen’s attorneys live and work in Dallas-Fort Worth, investing in the community they serve.

“Many big out of town or out of state firms setup satellite locations, buy billboards and TV ads, and make themselves seen in DFW, but they’re not part of the community and they don’t give back,” notes a practice profile on the firm. “By contrast, we only exist because of our community, and we are dedicated to supporting it.”

This local focus translates to a deeper understanding of regional factors that can impact personal injury cases, from familiarity with local medical providers to knowledge of area court systems and judges.

The Leadership Team: Experience and Recognition

The firm’s leadership brings impressive credentials and recognition to their practice:

Shane V. Mullen, Managing Attorney has earned recognition as a Texas Super Lawyer for three consecutive years and holds lifetime membership in both the Million and Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forums. With 21 years of personal injury experience, he brings strategic insight to complex cases.

Joseph R. Morrison, Attorney has 18 years of personal injury experience and served as counsel of record in a case recognized by VerdictSearch.com as a top 5 premises liability verdict in Texas. He is a member of The National Trial Lawyers: Top 100 Civil Plaintiff Trial Lawyers.

Regis L. Mullen, Founder brings 56 years of legal experience, including his valuable background as a Litigation Supervisor at Allstate Insurance Company, providing the firm with critical insights into insurance industry practices.
