Ogletree Deakins Launches Compliance Calendar, Bringing Effective Dates for New Laws Directly to Clients’ Calendars

   |   Press Release

ATLANTA – July 29, 2026 – Ogletree Deakins, one of the largest labor and employment law firms representing management, announces the launch of the Compliance Calendar, a new feature within the Client Portal that delivers critical effective dates for new and amended state and federal laws directly to a user’s existing calendar.

Employment laws continue to evolve rapidly, and HR and legal teams face increasing challenges when they track effective dates across multiple jurisdictions. Requirements for job postings, onboarding notices, handbook policies, paid sick leave, wage deductions, trainings, and terminations change frequently, and a missed effective date can carry significant risk. The Compliance Calendar was developed to address this challenge directly in response to feedback.

When a state amends or enacts a new law, the update automatically syncs with the user’s existing calendar platform, including Google Calendar, Outlook, or Apple Calendar. No additional software or separate login is required. Each calendar event includes a direct link to the corresponding Ogletree Deakins attorney-authored law summary, providing clients with relevant context and, occasionally, relevant updated templates or forms. Updates typically appear within 24 hours, depending on the calendar platform and user settings.

The Compliance Calendar also allows users to filter by state and topic, enabling clients to track only the jurisdictions and subject areas most relevant to their organization.

The Compliance Calendar is included for Advanced and Premium users of the Client Portal at no additional cost. Learn more on the firm’s website.
