1. Start with the geographic question your records can answer
A law firm serving Wagoner may receive inquiries from Wagoner city, elsewhere in Wagoner County, or another Oklahoma location. Those are different geographic relationships, and a city population estimate cannot tell you which locations generate viable matters. Before evaluating attribution, decide what location fields matter to your practice: the caller’s location, the incident location, the court or venue, the service area, or another legally relevant place. Keep those fields distinct from the marketing source. A Wagoner landing page, for example, would describe where someone entered the site; it would not by itself establish where the person lives or whether the matter belongs in Wagoner County.
Recommended approach
Bring a recent sample of inquiries and define the geographic fields you want to compare. Ask whether the system can preserve the source journey while your team records the location and qualification information it already needs. Do not treat the Census estimate for Wagoner city as a forecast. Use your own records to decide which geographic cuts are meaningful.
