Attribute definitions must be standardized.

Why it Matters?
Profiling value depends entirely on consistent definition and capture, since attributes recorded differently across matters produce analysis that appears rigorous but reflects coding variation rather than actual patterns. Defining a limited set of attributes captured reliably outperforms a comprehensive schema captured inconsistently. Plaintiff counsel identity is among the most predictive attributes and is frequently omitted.
