Family Protection Trusts are arrangements built into a Will or set up by a trust deed to place assets into a trust for specific family members, usually to provide for vulnerable relatives while preserving overall wealth and control. A solicitor drafts the trust provisions, appoints and guides trustees, and determines how capital and income are used for beneficiaries. They may combine the trust with a life interest in a home, protect against certain claims, and advise on inheritance and tax implications, guiding executors through registration and administration.
The trust terms set binding duties for trustees, the level of ongoing control, and the safeguards for vulnerable beneficiaries. The solicitor’s role includes outlining the consequences of distributions, ensuring compliance with inheritance tax planning, and addressing potential disputes, while providing professional accountability, protected client accounts, and the right to practice in Court of Session or High Court proceedings if needed.

Tagged solicitor Amy Douch
We highly recommend Amy who dealt very efficiently and professionally with the transfer of our mother-in-law's Personal Protection Trust. Amy managed to put us all at ease from the outset and this did not change throughout the whole of the legal process. All correspondence was answered in a timely manner and more importantly, in a way that we also understood. Thank you so much, Amy, for your fantastic hard work in concluding this matter so swiftly also. We wouldn't hesitate to use Amy again in the future and would highly recommend her to family, friends and everyone else for that matter.
