The team that builds and verifies the SupportDecode calculators.
The SupportDecode editorial team researches, builds, and maintains the calculators and state pages on this site. Every legal figure we publish traces to an official source: a statute, a court rule, or a published guideline table, each with a checked date.
We are not lawyers, and nothing on this site is legal advice. What we do is careful reading and careful math. The formulas behind our calculators run through hundreds of test scenarios on every build, and the verification page shows exactly which scenarios match official calculators and which still await an official cross-check.
When we get something wrong, we fix it in the open. Material fixes get a dated entry in the update log, never a silent edit.
