This six-page piece is written in Spanish and was published in the Suplemento de Derecho de la Alta Tecnología (High-Tech Law Supplement) on elDial.com, dated May 6, 2015, under the byline of Maximiliano Marzetti. It is a third-party opinion and analysis article rather than a Premonition-authored report, even though its subject matter overlaps closely with Premonition's own work.
Its opening move is to challenge an assumption: is the lawyer who charges the most necessarily the best? Are the partners at big law firms really the ones who win the most cases? The author argues that intuition says yes, but that data — now abundant and newly processable with the right tools — often says otherwise. The excerpt invokes legal-futurist Richard Susskind as part of a broader argument that the profession is approaching real change.
The piece's larger claim, captured in its subtitle, is that subjective rankings of lawyers may be on their way out, now that choosing counsel based on an actual track record of success has become technically possible.
