IP Legal Services' patent attorney routinely files responses to office actions for patent applications with the US Patent And Trademark Office. The office actions may comprise a response to rejection of the claims and follow up with an interview of the patent examiners to advance the prosecution of the application.
Patent Prosecution broadly refers to the communication between the patent applicant or representative with the US patent office either pre or post grant of the patent application to advance the application. This interaction usually consists of amendment of claims and supporting arguments to obtain an allowance of the patent application and grant of a patent.
