1. Start with the geography your firm actually serves
Byron is recorded as a municipality in Peach County. A Legal News program should therefore begin by separating coverage about Byron from coverage about Peach County and from statewide Georgia developments. Those scopes answer different reader questions. A story involving a Byron location is not automatically a Peach County court matter, and a Georgia legal change is not automatically local to Byron. Georgia Courts publishes official resources for citizens and legal professionals, but a marketing page should not treat a city, county, judicial circuit or court class as the same thing.
Recommended approach
Before approving coverage, define the geographic language your firm is willing to use for Byron, Peach County and Georgia. Require each page to identify the relevant jurisdiction accurately, cite the underlying legal or official information where appropriate, and avoid implying that a local incident establishes a broader legal trend.
