Protect assets after your death with a Trust in your Will

Put simply, a trust is an addition to an existing will that allows you to place your property and other assets in the control of a chosen trustee, which is likely to be a spouse, children or other close relatives. While trusts in a will can provide peace of mind for you and your family, and be an effective tool for long-term decision making, they can be complex. That’s why our professional legal advisors can offer you tailored advice on how to proceed, including deciding whether a trust is right for you and your circumstances. Located across the UK, we are here to help you move forward with your important decision.

How a trust in your will works?

When you make a basic will, you are effectively handing over a large amount of money when you die. This may not be the best approach as you’re relying on the good intentions of others.

For example, what if you leave all your money to your spouse but they go on to marry someone else? You might not know that marriage cancels their existing will and intestacy (when you don’t have a will) would favour their new spouse. This could leave your children disinherited.

Your circumstances could also change. You might fall out with one or more family members or be reconciled with others. Ten years from now, you might choose to make a different will favouring different people. But what if you die before you have the chance to make a new will?

Then there are disabled and other vulnerable beneficiaries to think of, who might not be able to look after money. Or how about young adults freshly graduated from college or university. Would you trust them not to squander a large inheritance?

All of these are good reasons to add some protection for your assets after your death.
