What is a Trust?

A trust is a legal arrangement which enables an individual known as a settlor to transfer assets such as cash, or property, to another person known as a trustee. The trustee holds the assets for the benefit of an individual, or class of individuals, who are in turn known as the beneficiaries.

Reasons for setting up a Trust

Due to the flexible nature of trusts, they can be used for a wide range of different circumstances. The most popular include:

  • Inheritance Tax Planning
  • Long Term Care Planning
  • Asset Protection

Our Wills, Life Planning & Probate team are able to advise on all aspects in relation to the creation, administration, and termination of trusts.
