Aurora Consulting LLC operates in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The firm has handled 677 career applications and maintains a resolved allowance rate pct of 89.05. This indicates a track record in these engineering-focused fields. The 89.05 percent allowance rate is a key indicator of the firm's results in securing patent rights. Practitioners can look to this historical success rate when assessing the firm's prosecution capabilities.
The firm has 15 pending office actions currently. With an average of 2.83 office actions per allowance, the firm demonstrates a relatively direct prosecution process. This 2.83 average helps in setting expectations for the number of interactions required to reach a final decision. With 677 applications in its history, the firm has established a clear performance record. The 15 pending actions represent the current active workload for the firm's practitioners.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 5 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. 5 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 + other | 5 (23%) |
| §103 only | 7 (32%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 8 (36%) |
