Listed by the USPTO as PAIK, STEVEN SANGYUL
Tech Center 2800 • Art Units: 2876 2887
This examiner grants 21% of resolved cases
Steven Sangyul Paik presents a challenging environment in Art Unit 2876, with an allowance rate of 20.9% across 43 resolved cases. This low rate suggests that most applications do not reach allowance. However, the interview lift of 25.0% shows that interviews provide a significant boost to the chances of success. This 25.0% lift is a critical metric for applicants to consider when facing a rejection.
The median days to allowance is 1219, which is over three years. Applicants like the Board of Regents of the University of Texas System and Instagrid GmbH are active in this docket. Firms such as Meunier Carlin & Curfman LLC and THE WEBB LAW FIRM, P.C. are involved. Given the difficult 20.9% allowance rate, practitioners should leverage the 25.0% interview lift to navigate the 1219-day median timeline. Engaging the examiner directly appears to be one of the few ways to statistically improve the odds of a grant.
