When you place certain assets in a trust, they are then under the control of an appointed person(s) called ‘trustees’. The trustees are then in charge of managing the trust according to your instructions, even after your death.
Setting up a trust can be a flexible and tax-efficient way to plan for the future, provide for your loved ones, and protect vulnerable beneficiaries.

Types of Trusts
There are many types of Trust fund designed for specific situations, however, common types are:
- A Discretionary Trust – protects family wealth for future generations while also providing for family members
- A Personal Injury Trust that will preserve any compensation received and still enable you to receive benefits
- Declaration of Trust (Deed of Trust) – to regulate ownership of a house
- Property Trust Will – to protect the value of your home
- Trust for a Disabled Child – that will carry on throughout their life
- Will Trust – appointing your Trustees to look after your estate until your children are old enough to inherit
Are your existing Trusts still relevant to their original intentions?
- Do you have a trust in place but have not reviewed it since the changes to the inheritance tax regime?
- Are you a trustee requiring advice on your duties and responsibilities?
- Are you a beneficiary of a trust and need advice as regards your position?
- In recent years new legislation and regulations have reduced the effectiveness and benefit of trusts, however, we can make sure they are still fit for purpose by advising on the best structures for your specific needs.
