When I worked in a solicitors' office a firm we regularly dealt with was called Wright Hassall & Co.! (Probably only works if you're from the north of England!)

Our dentist, when I was young, was Mr Gagg! My firm also took regular instructions from Wright Hassall & Co, Anagram, but they weren't, by and large!
