Legal calculators & guides

Legal calculators are built for project owners managing timelines who need reliable timelines without spreadsheets. Deadline and compliance planning for legal notices, filing windows, and contracts. Each guide shows how to calculate spans, offsets, and countdowns with clear inputs and outputs. Use the tools for project handoffs, event launches, and contract windows, and confirm whether you are counting calendar days, business days, or a regulatory window before you commit to the result. We also call out when inclusive or exclusive counting changes the final number so you can match the expectations of your team or policy.

Start with the calculator that matches your task and confirm the rule set that applies. For Legal planning, the most common mistakes are skipping time-zone differences, mixing business-day and calendar-day results, or forgetting to document the true start date. Our guides highlight what to verify before you calculate so you can confirm results before sharing them with stakeholders. If a deadline is critical, we recommend running both a calendar-day and working-day version to compare outcomes before you finalize the timeline.

Many Legal scenarios involve more than one stakeholder. A project manager may need a delivery date, while a finance or HR team needs the compliance window that surrounds it. The calculators in this category make those conversations easier by giving you a single source of truth for the math, plus wording you can reuse when you explain the result. Save the input dates and the rules you applied so anyone can reproduce the answer later.

Legal timelines can be strict. These guides emphasize documenting the rule set used for every deadline.

This category currently includes 50 guides. Each page follows the same structure: a quick summary, step-by-step walkthrough, example dates, and FAQs. That consistency makes it easy to compare tools and move from question to answer in a few minutes, whether you are setting deadlines, tracking eligibility, or planning milestones. You can browse the list below and use pagination to reach every guide in this category.

Accuracy matters for every timeline. We do not store your input dates, and the calculators run instantly in your browser. That means you can experiment with different scenarios, compare outputs, and share the final result knowing the data stays private.
