Stevens Law Group has managed 1931 career applications in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. The firm has a resolved allowance rate pct of 82.42. This rate provides a historical view of the firm's ability to secure allowances for its clients and serves as a benchmark for its 1931 career applications.
The average of 2.9 office actions per allowance describes the typical prosecution path for applications handled by the firm. This figure indicates the frequency of examiner interactions required per grant. There are 41 pending office actions currently being processed. These pending matters follow the firm's established pattern across its Chemistry & Materials practice.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 14 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. 14 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 | 3 (6%) |
| §101 + other | 10 (19%) |
| §103 only | 23 (43%) |
| §102 only | 3 (6%) |
| §112 only | 1 (2%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 11 (21%) |
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.
