Anderson Gorecki LLP operates in the Networking & Security technology area, with 1543 career applications. This volume of work shows a solid foundation of experience in networking patent prosecution. The firm currently manages 8 pending office actions, indicating a focused active docket.
The firm maintains a resolved allowance rate pct of 90.12, reflecting a high probability of success for its clients. However, the prosecution process tends to be more intensive, with an avg office actions per allowance of 4.2. This suggests that the firm is willing to engage in extensive negotiations and several rounds of amendments to secure an allowance.
For practitioners, the 90.12 resolved allowance rate pct is a strong indicator of the firm's ultimate success. The 4.2 avg office actions per allowance highlights the persistence required in the Networking & Security sector. With 1543 career applications and 8 pending office actions, the firm has a proven track record of overcoming examiner rejections through diligent prosecution.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
