As personal injury attorneys, the lawyers at Simmons, Morris & Carroll, LLC care about people. This year, the firm donated money to a local charity event: The Shreveport Police Department “Shop with a Cop” shopping spree. Last year, officers gave 19 children $100 to spend on Christmas presents for themselves at a local Wal-Mart store in Shreveport, Louisiana. Children were nominated for the Shop with a Cop program by law enforcement officers who identified them as unfortunate. This year, underprivileged children in Shreveport will have the same opportunity – a chance to buy themselves Christmas presents that they otherwise couldn't afford.

Shreveport isn't the only place that participates in Shop with a Cop. In fact, cities like Long Beach, CA, Milwaukee, WI, and Columbia TN participate in the event every year. This year, the Shreveport Police Department will continue the tradition and offer more children the chance to experience the fun and excitement of holiday shopping.
