Rauschenbach Patent Law Group, PLLC focuses on Chemistry & Materials and has 11 pending office actions. The firm reports 441 career applications, a resolved allowance rate of 93.95%, and an average of 2.64 office actions per allowance.
The allowance rate indicates that most resolved applications reached allowance. The office-action average shows that allowed matters generally required more than two examination actions, pairing a high reported allowance outcome with recurring prosecution effort.
The active docket is limited relative to the reported career application volume. Practitioners can use the figures to frame expectations for chemistry and materials work, particularly the need to evaluate both historical allowance results and the response burden reflected in the portfolio.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 6 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. 6 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 |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 5 (45%) |
| §112 only | 1 (9%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (36%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (9%) |
