Nexus IP Law PLLC has 6 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering and 112 career applications. The profile reflects a contained active workload and a focused historical application record.
The resolved allowance rate is 79.25%, with an average of 2.38 office actions per allowance. Resolved matters therefore show allowance in a substantial portion of the record, while allowed matters generally involved more than a single examination action.
Practitioners should review how device and mechanical claims were distinguished from the cited art and how amendments affected scope. The pending matters deserve separate file-level analysis because the historical measures do not identify the issues currently blocking progress.
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 | 2 (29%) |
| §102 only | 1 (14%) |
| §112 only | 1 (14%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (43%) |
