This examiner grants 50% of resolved cases
Mark H. Gaw has 299 resolved cases in Art Unit 2125, with an allowance rate of 49.8%. The most notable data point is the interview lift of 59.7%, which is exceptionally high for Tech Center 3600. This suggests that for financial services companies like Visa and Mastercard, an interview is a critical and highly effective step in the prosecution process.
The median days to allowance of 1293 indicates a long path to grant, but the high interview lift offers a powerful way to improve the odds. Firms such as Knobbe, Martens, Olson & Bear, LLP and PnK IP LLC should make interviews a standard practice. The 49.8% allowance rate and 1293 median days to allowance for 299 resolved cases highlight the transformative impact of direct engagement. The 59.7% interview lift is the most effective tool for overcoming the 49.8% allowance rate during the 1293 median days to allowance.
