1. Start with the geographic scope of your intake
Danville and Hendricks County are not interchangeable labels. The Census record identifies Danville as a municipality in Hendricks County, Indiana, while a law firm may serve Danville, the wider county, other Indiana communities or a defined set of practice-area locations. Video Intake should reflect that actual service boundary rather than treating the town’s population as a forecast of inquiries. A visitor should be able to identify the relevant location when geography affects eligibility, venue, urgency or routing.
Recommended approach
Write down the locations your firm actually evaluates before building the intake. Decide whether location is an opening question, a later qualification question or a matter for staff review. If the firm serves Danville and additional Hendricks County communities, make those distinctions clear without suggesting that every resident is a prospective client.
