1. Set the geographic boundary before choosing coverage
The 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate is 13,794, with a margin of error of 48. For Legal News, that distinction matters. A story about a Michigan statute may be relevant statewide, while a Jackson County court development may be locally useful. A story involving another municipality may be relevant only if the firm actually serves that area and the page explains the relationship accurately. A page should not turn Leoni’s name into a substitute for a verified local connection.
Recommended approach
Before booking, list the jurisdictions the firm serves, the practice areas it wants to discuss, and the geographic scope it can support. Review whether each proposed topic belongs at the Michigan, Jackson County, or Leoni level.
