1. Define Northville without confusing city and county coverage
That distinction matters when you decide whether your footprint should include Northville alone, selected cities in one county, both counties, or a broader Michigan service area. A city page and a county-level service strategy are not interchangeable. The population estimate of 6,069 is eligibility evidence for considering the place; it is not evidence that residents are searching for a lawyer or that a particular practice area has demand.
Recommended approach
Start the consultation with a service map. List the matters you accept, the places you genuinely serve, and any county boundary or travel limitation that should shape coverage. Ask whether Northville belongs in a focused city set, an Oakland County and Wayne County plan, or a larger Michigan footprint. Keep that choice separate from assumptions about traffic or case volume.
