This examiner grants 58% of resolved cases
Laureen Chan is an examiner in Tech Center 1700 and Art Unit 1713. The examiner has 238 resolved cases with an allowance rate of 57.6%. This 57.6% rate shows that a majority of applications are successful, though the process may require careful navigation. The 238 resolved cases provide a solid statistical foundation for planning prosecution strategy.
The interview lift of 54.5% is remarkably high and should be a central part of any applicant's strategy. This 54.5% lift indicates that an interview more than doubles the effectiveness of the prosecution compared to the baseline. The median days to allowance is 1279, which defines the typical duration for reaching a grant. Practitioners should prepare for a 1279-day timeline and prioritize an interview to leverage the 54.5% lift. Given the 57.6% allowance rate, the high lift suggests that the examiner is very receptive to verbal arguments and collaborative problem-solving.
