McKee, Voorhees & Sease, PLC (MVS) Celebrates its 100th Anniversary in 2024
DES MOINES, Iowa (January 2, 2024) – McKee, Voorhees & Sease, PLC (MVS) has achieved a major milestone as it celebrates its 100th Anniversary. The Firm started in July 1924 when Talbert Dick began his patent law practice at the Hippee Building (now known as the Surety Hotel) in downtown Des Moines. After his service as a World War I pilot, he chose to live and practice law in Des Moines.
