Alleman Hall LLP is a patent law firm that specializes in Chemistry & Materials, where it has managed 4370 career applications. The firm maintains a resolved allowance rate of 91.53 percent, reflecting an ability to secure patent grants for chemical and materials science inventions. This success rate is a performance metric for their work in this technical field.
The firm currently has 58 pending office actions. Their prosecution history shows an average of 2.34 office actions per allowance. This metric indicates an efficient interaction with the USPTO, typically requiring the rounds of communication recorded in the data to reach a grant. Practitioners can use the 2.34 average to benchmark the expected timeline and effort for applications in Chemistry & Materials.
The 4370 career applications provide a data set for evaluating the firm's long-term performance. The 91.53 percent allowance rate and 2.34 office actions per allowance together characterize a firm that is both successful and efficient. The 58 pending office actions represent a current workload that requires ongoing management.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 22 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 22 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 5 (4%) |
| §101 + other | 14 (12%) |
| §103 only | 41 (35%) |
| §102 only | 15 (13%) |
| §112 only | 1 (1%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (1%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 39 (34%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
