1. Choose coverage by practice area, not population
Bosseo says Legal News monitors more than 2,800 legal-news sources, including local and national sources, and re-scans every 15 minutes. It also says stories are matched to the firm’s practice areas and state. For a Saginaw firm, the relevant geographic question is therefore broader than the city boundary: whether Texas stories create useful legal questions for the people the firm serves in Saginaw and Tarrant County. The Census record identifies Saginaw as a municipality in Tarrant County, but it does not establish which legal topics residents search for or whether a news event will generate inquiries.
Recommended approach
Bring a written list of practice areas and the geographic relationships the firm actually serves. Ask Bosseo to explain what qualifies as relevant Texas coverage, what happens when a story concerns another part of the state, and how the firm can decline a topic that does not fit its work or professional judgment.
