1. Define the geographic brief before reviewing news
Bosseo’s public Legal News description says its system monitors local and national legal-news sources for a firm’s state and matches stories to practice areas. For a firm serving Northbridge, the geographic brief should therefore distinguish Northbridge from Worcester County and from Massachusetts as a whole. A page about a Massachusetts statute may be relevant statewide; a page about an incident elsewhere may not be useful to a Northbridge audience unless the legal issue genuinely applies to the firm’s practice.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how a Northbridge-serving firm would set geographic relevance for each practice area. Review whether the intended coverage includes Northbridge, Worcester County, Massachusetts, or a combination, and decide when a statewide development merits local explanation. Keep that rule visible during approval so the firm does not publish geographically misleading commentary.
