Service Area

A Northern California practice, on site and in your courthouse

Coe & Company works from Lodi across the Central Valley, the Sacramento region, and the San Francisco Bay Area. Most sites in that footprint are within a two-hour drive — which means inspections get scheduled around your calendar, not around an airline's.

Counties served: 22
Typical drive to site: 2 hrs
Years in the region: 50+
Firm founded: 1983

01 / Where We Work

Three regions, one drive time

A forensic engagement is rarely one visit. It is an initial inspection, a destructive-testing day, a re-inspection after the other side's expert has been through, and then deposition and trial. Distance compounds across every one of them.

Sacramento & the Central Valley

The firm's home ground. Same-day site access across San Joaquin, Sacramento, and Stanislaus counties, and a standing familiarity with the local building departments and their inspection records.
