Analysis

Convergence Intellectual Property Law P.C. has 5 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and a career application record of 171. The profile combines a small current docket with a historical application record in medical-device and mechanical-engineering technologies.

The resolved allowance rate is 87.5%, and the average is 3.84 office actions per allowance. The allowance measure describes resolved outcomes, while the action average shows that allowed matters generally involved several examination exchanges. These figures can provide historical context for resource planning and client communications.

The record does not identify the issues presented in the pending matters or explain the path to allowance for resolved applications. Practitioners should therefore assess each file independently, with attention to claim scope, cited art, disclosure support, and response timing.

Written from this page's own data; every figure is computed from USPTO records and verified before publication.
