Messner Reeves LLP prosecutes Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering applications, with 476 career applications and 5 pending office actions. Its resolved allowance rate is 74.65%, reflecting a more mixed result across resolved applications.
Applications reaching allowance averaged 2.83 office actions. The profile combines a meaningful application history with a lower resolved allowance rate, so practitioners may place particular weight on claim strategy and case-specific prosecution circumstances when evaluating this record.
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.

|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (20%) |
| §103 only | 2 (40%) |
