Trusts
Our Approach
Trusts or Settlements have been used for centuries to protect family assets. Today our clients may not be off on a crusade but they are still anxious to protect their hard won assets. Trusts have evolved into the highly sophisticated form we use today.
Trusts are used to preserve assets for the next generation, as an important tool in tax planning and to control the ownership of land. Where younger family members may not have attained financial maturity trusts can be used to retain legal control in the hands of parents or grandparents.
Resources and Expertise
Trevor George and his team have an excellent reputation in this field, and are often consulted by other professionals on trust issues. Trevor has 30 years experience of this specialist area, and is presently a trustee of over 100 trusts holding assets ranging from land to family businesses.
