United Kingdom High Courts Report 2014 (Russian)

This 73-page report is a Russian-language edition of Premonition's analysis of win statistics for barristers and law firms appearing before the High Courts of the United Kingdom in 2014. It opens by describing Premonition as an artificial-intelligence system that processes large volumes of case data to identify which lawyers win most often in front of a given judge — something it calls a very unfair advantage in court.

The report frames this as correcting a longstanding blind spot: hiring decisions in litigation are typically made on the strength of a friend's recommendation, online reviews, personal familiarity, law-school pedigree, office appearance, or the reputation of a well-known firm — rarely on a record of how often that specific lawyer has actually won. By assembling and analyzing UK High Court outcomes at scale, the report argues that data on individual performance can now replace those subjective proxies.

As one of the more substantial entries in Premonition's library, at 73 pages, it applies that argument specifically to the UK High Courts across a full year of case activity.
