Currently, the firm is handling 13 pending office actions, which is a small number relative to its total historical output.
The firm's resolved allowance rate is 88.68 percent. This success is achieved with an average of 2.82 office actions per allowance. This 2.82 average suggests an efficient prosecution process, typically requiring multiple rounds of communication with examiners to reach a grant in the Communications field. The 88.68 percent allowance rate across 13050 career applications demonstrates proficiency in securing patent rights.

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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 8 (42%) |
| §102 only | 3 (16%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (11%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 6 (32%) |
