1. Start with the firm’s real geographic footprint
Bosseo describes a model that can cover a whole state or only counties selected by the firm. That distinction matters in Marshall because Marshall is a city, while Harrison County is the recorded county relationship. A page for Marshall should not be treated as interchangeable with a county page, a Texas page or a page for another community. The firm should first identify where it accepts matters, where its attorneys are authorized to practice, and which locations it can discuss accurately. The Census record establishes Marshall’s municipal identity and its Harrison County relationship; it does not establish that every nearby city is an appropriate target.
Recommended approach
Use Marshall as one possible city-level location within a deliberately chosen footprint. Ask Bosseo to show how city, county and state coverage would be separated, linked and reviewed. If the firm serves only Harrison County, a county-limited scope may be more appropriate to evaluate than statewide publication. If the firm serves broader areas, expand only where the firm can provide accurate service information and legally appropriate local context.
