BROWNSTEIN HYATT FARBER SCHRECK, LLP focuses on Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The firm has handled 1977 career applications. There are 50 pending office actions currently being managed by the firm.
The firm achieves a high resolved allowance rate of 92.61 percent. This is reached with an average of 3.3 office actions per allowance. This indicates an effective prosecution strategy that balances a high success rate with a moderate number of interactions with the patent office. The 92.61 percent allowance rate is a strong indicator of the firm's capability in the transportation and mechanical sectors. With 50 pending actions, the firm maintains a significant active presence at the USPTO. Practitioners can use the 3.3 average and the 1977 career applications to set expectations for the prosecution timeline. These metrics highlight the firm's consistent performance in its primary technology area.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 12 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. 12 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 (12%) |
| §101 + other | 7 (16%) |
| §103 only | 10 (23%) |
| §102 only | 4 (9%) |
| §112 only | 3 (7%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (5%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (5%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 9 (21%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (2%) |
