1. Set the service boundary before writing questions
Lewisboro is a municipal town in Westchester County, New York. The 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate for Lewisboro town is 12,089, with a margin of error of 24. That figure describes the town’s population; it does not establish legal demand, search behavior, lead volume or staffing needs. Your intake should therefore begin with the firm’s actual service boundary: Lewisboro, other Westchester County locations, or additional locations your firm expressly accepts. A location question can help identify where an incident, property, opposing party or prospective client is located, but it should not be used to imply that the firm can accept every matter from the area.
Recommended approach
Write location questions around your eligibility rules. State the geographic scope plainly, identify matters that require review, and provide a safe alternative for inquiries outside the firm’s stated service area. Review the wording with counsel before publication.
