Stress testing and non-contentious structures
We regularly assist with advisory work relating to trusts, succession planning or capacity, in many cases to avoid future disputes. This can involve ‘stress testing’ trusts or wills when they are prepared, upon a review or during a family governance exercise; and assisting the non contentious private client team in establishing or winding up trust structures which involve potentially contentious issues.
Similarly, we also assist on trust, inheritance and capacity related issues regarding pre nuptial and post nuptial agreements, deeds of covenant, or arising on separation and divorce.
