MYERS BIGEL, P.A. has 278 pending office actions in Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals and 26142 career applications. The figures describe a substantial prosecution practice with a large application history and an active life-sciences docket.
The resolved allowance rate is 87.54%, and the average is 3.25 office actions per allowance. Resolved matters show a favorable allowance result, while the action average indicates that prosecution often requires several examination interactions.
For patent practitioners, the profile supports consideration of scale, historical outcomes, and expected response effort together. The pending-action total is relevant to current capacity, while the application record provides context for the reported performance measures.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 75 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. 75 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 + other | 22 (8%) |
| §103 only | 84 (30%) |
| §102 only | 14 (5%) |
| §112 only | 22 (8%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (1%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 20 (7%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 115 (41%) |
| No statute on record | 3 (1%) |
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.
