This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I'd hire and refer Joe Morrison again without hesitation!

Joe Morrison @Mullen and Mullen gets a FIVE star review from me in how he handled my case! And I'm a person who is very cautious when having to deal with an attorney for anything... however I'd hire Joe Morrison and his staff again, and refer my family and friends if they needed an attorney to repres...ent them, without any hesitation. I had a bad fall- an on premises injury in the apartment complex where I live, due to faulty upkeep, maintenance and a very sloppy unprofessional concrete laying job on the walkway to my apartment. I had serious damage to my knee, neck and lower back. The week I hired Joe for my case, he made sure I received excellent medical attention right away, without delay, for my injuries. The doctor he referred me to was excellent, as well as the physical therapy folks he referred me to. Joe Morrison has great communication skills, is HONEST, compassionate and upfront about everything, both the good and bad aspects that were part of my case. I certainly appreciated that. Whenever I contacted him about anything, he was right on it, I never had to wait more than a day for him to call me back, and in most cases he returned my calls/emails the same day. Excellent customer service and an easy person to talk to about what was a quite difficult situation and time in my life. His assistant Rosa is fantastic as well. These folks are true professionals and will do a great job in handling your case. I'm quite thankful I chose them to represent me and handle my difficult case. C. Pearson

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Awesome

I can't think of another lawyer I'd want to handle a serious personal injury case. Jo is very tenacious with the opposition, yet has excellent bed-side manners with all his clients (regardless if their case is worth a few ten-thousand or over a million). The results I've seen him attain are amazing..., and definitely not what most lawyers can achieve.

Life Changing Accident Life saving Attorney

In 2007 I suffered an accident that changed my life physically, mentally and monetarily. I took a fall from height to concrete that crushed my right heel and basically broke most all the bones in my right foot severe tissue and nerve damage and head injury from striking concrete. In bed almost a year..., a wheelchair 7 months and many medical procedures/ surgeries and then learning to walk again except with a bad limp and 2 inch loss on my right side. I was forced to retire from a career I had loved for many years. Permanent disabled. Major Insurance Company did everything they could to offer me a very minor settlement, Joseph fought each and everyday for settlement worthy of my damages with an understanding and kindness show me through many difficult times. In the end Joseph through continued and concentrated efforts, skill and just plain old tenacity along with the heart of a fighter I ended up with a settlement that I would have never believed possible and am most certain one of the largest ever paid for my type of injury in Texas. I am limited to the amount of space provided to share my experience but can honestly say Joseph Morrison has my respect and gratitude for life and I would and do refer anyone needing a personal injury Attorney to him to fight their battle to the best possible settlement.

young vs conagra foods

Joseph help me in many ways, he just a lawyer he became a very good friend. I had a serve back and foot injury in 2008, Joseph listened and help me mentally with all my ups and downs. He took on the second largest food producer in the world and we won our case with a jury verdict in Tarrant county ...with 11 to 1. He beleaved in me and I beleaved in him. Just want to say thanks again. Did I mention the settlement was over a half of million dollars.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I highly recommend Joseph Morrison because he is an outstanding attorney. Recently we worked together on a tragic case involving the death of a child. He understands all of the complexities of a personal injury case and is committed to helping his clients. Joseph is not an attorney that dabbles in personal injury cases, rather he works on numerous personal injury cases every single day. His diligence allows him to turn over every stone to find a way to recover money for his clients."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have personally worked with Joe Morrison as co-counsel on various cases for more than a decade. These cases carried from minor car crashes where the victims had bumps and bruises, to tragic death cases where distraught families had lost their child or their wage earner, or were facing enormous future medical costs for the care of a loved one. The case types differed, but one thing stayed constant. That thing was the high level of skill, dedication, and effort that Joe brought to every case. He was, and is, a fantastic lawyer, and he has my unqualified recommendation. There are none better."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer based upon his high degree of dedication to detail. Due to his diligence (in a case in which I had an injured co-plaintiff), opposing counsel even mentioned how tenacious (yet professional) Joseph was. Eventually, the defense's egg cracked, and he got way more compensation for his client than I expected. I was simply impressed. He's my go-to-guy to whom I refer injured clients in the Dallas area."
