The law firm of Dennis, Faulkner & Alsop are still in business - see full details on their webpage.

This is just a part of their history up to the time that this company stamp was attached to this note.

DFA Law was formed in Northampton in 1838 by William Dennis, a Northampton man, upon being admitted as a solicitor practising from offices in Horsemarket.

 

In 1876 Mr. Dennis was joined by Dr Faulkner, who had been practising on his own in London since 1870 – the firm became Dennis & Faulkner.

In 1906 the firm moved their offices to the Market Square in Northampton and a year later Bertram Faulkner, one of Dr. Faulkner’s sons, also joined the practice as a Partner.

1910 saw a new Partner join the firm by the name of Charles Frederick Alsop and the firm became known as Dennis Faulkner & Alsop

As well as being a solicitor Charles Alsop was also a magistrate and he left the firm in 1934 to continue this work, where he later became Chairman.
