Eight short checks cover the will, the powers of attorney, the company-share question, and the family arrangements. The result is a readiness score and a prioritised list of the open documents and decisions.
Step 1 of 8
Who this is for
Each entry below names a decision and the legal structure DRG Law writes around it. If the matter on your desk fits one of these, send it to Damaris.
An owner planning what happens to the business next needs the company shares, the will, and the family arrangements lined up as one plan, not separate files. The 2026 launch will carry the full service. Until then, Damaris reviews and routes the file.
Wills and estate plans touch the company shares, the property the family owns, and the agreements already in place. DRG Law will run those connections starting in 2026.
Wills, power-of-attorney documents (the papers that name who decides for you if you cannot), and the core estate papers are part of the 2026 launch. Until then, the file comes to Damaris for review.
How DRG Law writes it
The 2026 launch will carry the full succession practice. Until then, DRG Law writes the structural decision and routes the file where a specialist signature is needed.
A one-page map of who owns what, who controls what, and what the family arrangements say. Becomes the starting point for every succession conversation.
Share class changes, holding-company restructures, and trust arrangements are written before the estate documents move.
The will and power-of-attorney documents record what the structural work decided. Damaris drafts them or routes to a specialist depending on what the file requires.
Send your matter
DRG Law is preparing the full wills and estates practice for 2026. Until then, send the question so Damaris can confirm whether DRG Law can take it on now, hold it for the launch, or point you to a more direct path.
