1. Define the footprint around the clients you can serve
Bosseo’s public product text says a firm can choose statewide coverage or “only my counties,” with the ability to expand later. Clinton charter township’s recorded county relationship is Macomb County. That makes a county-based discussion more precise than treating Clinton as shorthand for all of southeast Michigan. It also prevents a common planning error: using the township’s population estimate as evidence that statewide or countywide coverage will produce demand. The Census figure describes population, not searches or legal matters. Your actual service area should therefore begin with the jurisdictions and communities your firm is prepared to serve, not with the largest possible page count.
Recommended approach
Ask for two clearly separated scopes during the consultation: a Macomb County option that includes Clinton where appropriate, and a broader Michigan option only if your firm truly accepts matters across that geography. For each scope, identify which practice areas and services are available there. Keep places outside your service area out of the initial decision, even if they would increase the number of potential pages.
