Will Trusts

There are very valuable reasons for establishing Trusts in your Will. Protection from Sideways Dis-inheritance ensuring that your children are not disinherited through remarriage after your death, and ensure that they are protected from subsequent divorce settlements too.

Protection from care home fees, meaning, should a surviving partner become infirm and need to go into long term care, funds in trust would not feature in terms of Local Authority means testing.

In addition to will trusts, we offer a variety of lifetime asset trusts which have many protection benefits for couples and singles. All trusts are set up by SRA regulated trust solicitors and they can also offer professional trustee services.

A Lifetime Trust is set up now (in your lifetime) to help your estate planning and allow you to gift assets to loved ones whilst retaining control.

The trust can also protect the assets from any future relationship breakdowns and credit issues.
