1. Start with the footprint your firm can actually serve
Bosseo describes two geographic approaches: statewide coverage or a tighter footprint limited to counties the firm chooses. For a Glen Ellyn practice, the first decision is whether DuPage County accurately represents the firm’s service area. Glen Ellyn’s recorded county relationship is DuPage County, but serving one municipality does not automatically mean the firm serves every community in that county. A county choice should follow the firm’s intake rules, court coverage, office policy and willingness to accept matters—not the population figure alone.
Recommended approach
Define the service boundary before discussing page volume. Review Glen Ellyn, DuPage County and any additional Illinois counties separately. Mark each area as currently served, conditionally served or outside scope. Then ask Bosseo to show how the selected footprint would translate into service-and-city combinations.
