Expert legal and financial advisers in trusts and asset protection
Trusts are normally prepared for inheritance tax reasons and to protect assets.
The following is a short guide to some of the trusts commonly used by families, individuals and business owners for asset protection and tax and estate planning purposes, for which Wrigleys has a team of dedicated solicitors with years of knowledge and expertise.
Lifetime Trusts
Property, cash, investments or policies can be placed in to a trust to be held for your beneficiaries, for example a spouse, children or grandchildren.
Such trusts are set up by a person during their lifetime and so different form trusts which are created in wills.
