Damaris Regina Guimaraes helps business owners understand the legal risk, cost, timeline, and next step before they sign, close, transfer, or commit.
Her work covers business, real estate, contracts, and the owner decisions that need clear written advice before the document moves. Every matter ends in one short written note the owner can read, share with the accountant, and act on.
She runs DRG Law from Ontario by video, phone, or at the client’s location.
Legal training across two systems.
Before founding DRG Law in Ontario, Damaris trained and practised law in Brazil. That background supports her work with clients who need clear legal explanation in English or Portuguese, but the practice itself is focused on Ontario law.

How Damaris works
Clear advice before the next commitment.
Start with the decision
Damaris begins with what the owner needs to decide: buy, sell, lease, incorporate, transfer, finance, protect, or wait. The legal work follows the decision, not the other way around.
Name the risk
She explains the risk, cost, timeline, and tradeoff early enough for the client to act before signing, closing, or restructuring. No surprises after the document moves.
Write the next step
Every matter is written down in plain English or Portuguese so the client knows what happens next, who is doing what, and by when.
Outside confirmation
Hiring DRG legal services was one of our most important and best decisions when opening and taking care of our business. Fast, reliable and responsible. Damaris has always been there ready to help and support us throughout the whole process.
