1. Start with the geography your intake team actually serves
A caller may identify with Three Lakes, another part of Miami-Dade County, or a location outside your service area. The available Census record identifies Three Lakes as a census-designated place in Miami-Dade County; it does not describe where prospective clients come from or which matters your firm should accept. Intake Coach’s service focus specifically calls for coaching on city versus county. That makes location verification a practical intake issue rather than a reason to assume where a caller belongs.
Recommended approach
Set a location standard for your team to review with the responsible attorney. The standard can distinguish the caller’s city, county, incident location, court location, and any other jurisdictional fact relevant to the firm’s practice. Use Intake Coach feedback to identify whether representatives ask the question clearly, record the answer, and explain the next step when the matter is outside the firm’s scope.
