Attorney and/or Auctioneer Referrals - Northern CA

Hello,  I am look for referrals for an attorney and/or auctioneer in Northern CA (near Fairfield). 

My father has rental property near Fairfield, CA. To make a long story short, he had long term tenants and he terminated their lease 5+ months ago (they hadn't actually lived in the property for over 5 years).  They have yet to come gather their belongings which consists of cloths, misc stuff, furniture and 2 vehicles in the garage. The "value" would certainly be considered over $700 without the cars. My father has sent them formal letters, and extended their deadline to get their belongings several times. He has followed the guidelines set in Nolo for advising them and giving them proper notice to claim their belongings and even gave them several extensions before finally sending a last and final notice.  It is now time to move on with the process so he can clean out the home and move in himself.

He understands that he needs to have the personal property auctioned, after advertising the auction for at least a week, and the vehicles go to the city.  Does anyone have recommendations for auction firms that can manage this?  I would also be interested in referrals for a good attorney that could help guide him.  Again, he's following the guidelines in Nolo, but I want to make sure he's covered.

Thank you for your assistance!

Sue
