The Most Trustworthy Experts On Trusts
If you need an expert team of solicitors to handle your Trust needs, or simply to provide some advice on how they work, then Tinsdills Solicitors are for you. Here’s just a few of the other areas our Wills, Trusts & Probate services cover:
Keeping Trusts Simple
Some people are wary of Trusts because they believe they are complicated or expensive.
However, in the majority of situations that is not the case.
In simple terms, a Trust is a legal arrangement where one or more “trustees” hold assets (such as land, buildings and investments) for the benefit of “beneficiaries”.
The trustees are legally responsible for the assets held in Trust and they should be aware of their duties and powers, which are different from personal ownership.
We can guide you through the varied and complex world of Trusts with ease and simplicity.
Use Tinsdills for all your Trust needs today.
How Do Trusts Work?
Trusts can be used for a number of purposes, including:
- Wealth preservation and tax planning
- Safeguarding assets from third party threats (for example, arising from divorce, financial difficulties or claims on death)
- Protect means tested benefits (see also our pages on Personal Injury Trusts)
- Provide a flexible way of looking after assets for those who are vulnerable
The type of Trust that you need will vary according to your circumstances and requirements, but we can assist you to set up the following Trusts:
- Will trusts
- Discretionary trusts (including for pension death benefits)
- Life interest trusts
- Bare trusts
- Personal Injury Trusts
