MCKEE, VOORHEES & SEASE, P.L.C. shows a resolved allowance rate of 98.45 percent across 6704 career applications in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals. This very high success rate is paired with an average of 3.62 office actions per allowance. The firm is currently managing 123 pending office actions, reflecting a high level of current activity in the patent office.
The 98.45 percent allowance rate is particularly striking given the volume of 6704 career applications. While the average of 3.62 office actions per allowance indicates a thorough examination process, the final outcomes are overwhelmingly positive for the applicants. Practitioners can view the 123 pending office actions as a sign of the firm's continued large-scale involvement in biotechnology patent prosecution.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 46 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. 46 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 | 2 (1%) |
| §101 + other | 11 (8%) |
| §103 only | 27 (20%) |
| §102 only | 3 (2%) |
| §112 only | 14 (10%) |
| Double-patenting only | 3 (2%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 16 (12%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 60 (44%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
