In a law firm, the calendar isn't a list of meetings: it's the line between a well-run matter and professional liability. Procedural deadlines don't forgive a miscounted holiday.

So Mandato's calendar isn't a generic one. It knows which days count, knows the holidays, and computes deadlines from the notification date — and every event hangs off its matter, not off someone's personal agenda.

What's inside

The firm's calendar, complete.

  1. The firm's month

    Due dates, hearings and the whole team's meetings, in one view.

  2. Computed deadlines

    From the notification date, counting working days and holidays.

  3. Reminders

    Advance warning to whoever runs the matter, before every due date.

  4. Everything on its matter

    Every event hangs off its matter: the file opens from the calendar.

  5. Everyone's agenda

    Who's in court, what's due this week and what gets signed — visible to the team.

The change

The firm's week, before and after.

An illustrative estimate; the computation stays visible so the final judgement is the lawyer's.

Deadlines on working days and holidays

Enter the notification date and Mandato computes the due date the way courts count: working days, national holidays, and August where it applies. The computation is recorded on the matter, with its rule and its date.

The result can always be reviewed — procedural judgement belongs to the lawyer. What disappears is the hand-count over a paper calendar.

Reminders before, not after

Every due date warns ahead of time, to whoever runs the matter. The goal isn't to learn that a deadline passed: it's to have margin to spare while something can still be done.

Hearings and meetings, next to the deadlines

Hearings, board meetings, notary signings and internal meetings live on the same calendar as the due dates, each linked to its matter. The whole firm's week fits on one screen — who's in court, what's due, what gets signed.

What it doesn't do yet

Event sync with Google Calendar is in development: you can connect your Google account today, and two-way sync arrives later. And Mandato doesn't integrate the AEAT tax calendar: the deadlines it computes are procedural and matter deadlines, not your tax obligations.

Frequently asked questions

How does it compute procedural deadlines?

From the notification date, counting working days and skipping holidays. The rule applied and the result are recorded on the matter, and you can always adjust the computation: procedural judgement belongs to the lawyer.

Does it sync with Google Calendar?

The Google connection is available and two-way event sync is in development. Today the calendar lives in Mandato, with reminders before every due date.

Does it include the AEAT tax calendar?

No, and it isn't planned. Mandato computes procedural deadlines and your matters' deadlines — including a client's tax ones: the alegaciones window on a requerimiento or the month to appeal to the TEAR are counted the same way, in working days with the holidays applied. What it doesn't carry is the calendar of the firm's own obligations to the tax authority; that stays with your accountant or your accounting software.
