Analysis

Ari Arastoo Shahabi, in Tech Center 3600 and Art Unit 2407, has resolved 215 cases. The allowance rate is 56.7%, and the median days to allowance is 1215. The interview lift is a very high 41.2%, which is a strong signal for practitioners to use interviews.

For the 215 cases handled, the 56.7% allowance rate and the 41.2% lift suggest that interviews are highly effective and should be a primary strategy. The 1215-day median provides a baseline for the expected duration of prosecution in Art Unit 2407. The 41.2% lift is particularly notable, as it suggests that an interview can significantly improve the odds of overcoming the 56.7% baseline.
