Define the geographic brief before monitoring begins
Auburn is a municipality in Washington with recorded county relationships to King County and Pierce County. Those relationships matter when you decide whether a story belongs in a Washington-wide, county-aware or Auburn-focused editorial brief. They do not justify treating every event in either county as local to your firm. A news page should explain why the event, rule, decision or legal issue is relevant to your practice and service area. Bosseo’s public Legal News page describes monitoring of local and national legal-news sources for a firm’s state, with stories matched to practice areas. The page also describes coverage of events such as new laws, rule changes, appellate decisions, enforcement actions, recalls and local incidents.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how an Auburn brief would distinguish Auburn from King County, Pierce County and Washington-wide coverage. Decide in advance which geographic relationships are relevant to your consultations, and reject stories that use Auburn only as a location label without a clear legal connection.
