Analysis

WIGGIN AND DANA LLP operates in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems and reports 2010 career applications. The profile includes 15 pending office actions, indicating a defined current unresolved workload. Its resolved allowance rate is 78.23%, showing that allowance was recorded for a majority of resolved applications.

The average of 3.26 office actions per allowance indicates that successful matters commonly involve several examination responses. The profile therefore combines a majority allowance outcome with a prosecution path that includes repeated examination activity. For practitioners, the application base provides scale, the pending docket identifies current attention requirements, and the allowance and action figures separately describe outcome and effort.
