RIGA, MICHAEL ANGELO is a USPTO patent examiner in tech center 1600 and art unit 1633. The profile includes 73 resolved cases, an allowance rate of 56.2%, and a median of 1543 days to allowance. The limited case volume calls for file-level review, but the allowance rate shows a mixed outcome pattern. The median interval indicates that applications may remain in prosecution for a prolonged period before allowance.
The interview lift is 63.0%, the largest allowance association recorded within this profile. University of Massachusetts, Novartis AG, and The Johns Hopkins University are the listed leading companies. Fox Rothschild LLP, Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP (WA), and Studebaker Brackett PLLC are the listed leading firms. Practitioners should give interviews serious strategic attention while recognizing that the 1543-day median still requires extended docket planning.
