The Seymour Trip is a treasured and unique aspect of the firm’s commitment to well-being. Forty years ago our former partner, Jim Seymour, established the Seymour Plan, which has helped hundreds of Vorys partners, associates, paralegals and staff travel to Europe. Mr. Seymour and his wife understood the rejuvenating effects of travel and the diversity of perspective and creativity it brings to each individual, our clients and the firm.
