Dolcera - Internal process and timeline

DAY 1

  • Dolcera’s prosecution team receives the Office Action from the Client
  • A Senior Analyst checks the Technology area and assigns it to an Analyst with expertise in that technology area
  • An Editor populates the bibliography details, due dates and the cited references in the prosecution data sheet* ( Sample 1, Sample 2) and sends it to the Analyst
  • Simultaneously, the Analyst reads the Office Action, the patent and the cited references and prepares the strategy accordingly
  • The Analyst prepares the prosecution data sheet* with a proposed strategy
  • The Senior Analyst reviews the strategy and the reviewed prosecution data sheet* is sent to the Client Attorney

DAY 2

  • Receive feedback from Client Attorney on the prosecution data sheet*
  • The Analyst starts to prepare the Office Action response draft based on the received feedback

DAY 3

  • The Analyst prepares the Office Action response draft and shares it with the Senior Analyst
  • The Senior Analyst reviews the response draft and sends the response draft to the Client Attorney


  • Note:Preparing a prosecution data sheet is optional. Dolcera can send the office action response draft to the client without preparing the prosecution data sheet. The process can be adapted according to the client needs.
