1. Set the geographic boundary before selecting stories
The service should be evaluated against the geography your firm actually serves. Port Washington is in Ozaukee County, but a Port Washington page, an Ozaukee County page, and a Wisconsin-wide news page address different audiences. The Census record identifies the city and its county relationship; it does not establish that residents are searching for legal news or that a particular story will produce inquiries. Bosseo’s public Legal News description says its system monitors local and national legal-news sources for a state and matches stories to practice areas. That makes geographic scope a practical review point.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how a proposed story would be framed for Port Washington, Ozaukee County, or Wisconsin. Decide whether the firm wants city-specific explanations, county coverage, statewide legal developments, or a defined combination. Do not treat the city population as a forecast. Instead, review whether each page names the correct jurisdiction and gives readers a useful reason to contact the firm.
