1. Start with Paducah’s actual service boundary
The 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 26,845, with a margin of error of 34. For Intake Coach, the practical implication is geographic discipline. Your firm should decide whether intake covers Paducah, McCracken County, Kentucky more broadly, or another defined service area. That boundary should appear in your qualification questions and in the ownership rules for matters outside the firm’s intended scope.
Recommended approach
Write down the locations your firm accepts before reviewing call quality. Ask whether the intake specialist confirms the caller’s county, incident location, court location, or other jurisdictional fact when it matters to eligibility. Use the consultation to determine how those answers should affect routing and attorney review.
