Analysis

HEALY, NOAH MICHAEL works in tech center 3700 and art unit 3774. The record contains 50 resolved cases, with an allowance rate of 54.0%. The median time to allowance is 1,246 days, and interviews are associated with a 41.4% lift. The limited case volume makes the profile more dependent on a small record, but the interview figure is still a notable practical signal.

The represented companies are Sony Group Corporation, DexCom Inc., and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. The listed firms are FOLEY & LARDNER LLP, Artegis Law Group, LLP, and Cushman Partners, LLC. Practitioners may consider early examiner interviews, while preserving multiple claim strategies because the allowance rate does not indicate a consistently favorable path.
