This examiner grants 64% of resolved cases
Sara Chandler Hamilton is an examiner in Tech Center 3600, working in Art Unit 3691. With 511 resolved cases, there is a substantial amount of data available to inform prosecution strategies. The allowance rate is 64.0 percent, which indicates that a majority of the applications result in a patent grant. This 64.0 percent rate suggests a moderately favorable environment for applicants in Art Unit 3691.
The median days to allowance is 1389, reflecting a long prosecution cycle. This 1389-day duration is an important metric for practitioners to use when setting expectations for their clients. The data also shows a very high interview lift percentage of 52.8. This 52.8 percent lift is significant, as it indicates that conducting an interview more than doubles the likelihood of an allowance in many cases. Given the 64.0 percent baseline allowance rate, the 52.8 percent lift suggests that direct communication is an exceptionally effective way to overcome rejections and move toward a grant. For practitioners in Tech Center 3600, the combination of a 1389-day median pendency and a 52.8 percent interview lift underscores the importance of proactive engagement with the examiner.
