LAMORTE & ASSOCIATES P.C. focuses on Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and has 1,231 career applications. It records 10 pending office actions and a resolved allowance rate of 87.09%, showing allowance as the recorded result for most resolved matters.

Allowed matters average 2.29 office actions per allowance. That figure describes the prosecution path for allowed matters and is not another allowance outcome measure. The pending docket identifies current work, while the application total provides historical scale. Practitioners can therefore review the profile through separate workload, resolution, and prosecution-effort lenses.
