Description: This application is a date calculator aimed primarily for use by lawyers and other professionals that require quick calculation of deadlines. Its purpose is to make it easy to calculate how many days there are between two given dates, or to add or subtract a certain number of days from a given date. For example, working out the number of days between two dates to calculate an interest charge, or when a court filing date is due. It has a number of unique features that are essential for lawyers and other professionals.
