Shreveport Car Accident Attorney Wes Gralapp 

Wesley J. Gralapp was born in Gulfport, MS, and spent his formative years growing up on River Road along the banks of the Mississippi River in Reserve, LA. Reserve is a small, close-knit town that follows a special tradition of building Christmas bonfires on the levee of the mighty Mississippi to light the way for Papa Noel each Christmas season. Family and friends gather along the river on Christmas Eve to share gumbo, socialize at the bonfires, and finish off the evening with Midnight Mass at St. Peter’s Church on River Road.

Growing up, Wes’ dad Captain Brownie was either working as a charter boat fishing captain on the Better N’ Better, or a tugboat captain on the Mrs. Betsie. Naturally, Wes came to love being on the water whether it be at the beach or on a boat. Fishing and relaxing at the water’s edge is something Wes is fond of and has passed on to his children. Upon moving to Central Louisiana and discovering duck hunting in the rice fields, Wes became an avid duck hunter.  Of course, Wes bleeds the purple and gold of the LSU Fighting Tigers and rarely misses the opportunity to watch a game with family and friends.
