Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Protective Trusts, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Protective trusts are used to manage and preserve assets for beneficiaries, typically in a way that protects vulnerable or future interests while allowing the settlor to control how funds are released. A solicitor advising on protective trusts drafts the trust deed, reviews tax implications, and guides executors and trustees through registering the trust, applying for grants of representation, and dealing with contemporaneous claims. They also coordinate with trustees, beneficiaries, and potential third-party advisers to ensure the trust operates under applicable law and protects the intended interests.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The specific decision points and outcomes in protective trusts can have lasting effects on how and when capital is paid, who benefits, and how trust property is treated for tax and welfare purposes. A solicitor provides protection by ensuring the trust deed is valid, addressing competing claims, and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and safeguarding positions, such as duties to trustees and rights of beneficiaries.

Megan McKinlay

Tagged solicitor Megan McKinlay

As it was nearly 20 years since I'd written my original will, Megan took me through the changes in format that had taken place during that time and went through in detail the changes that I wished to make. Megan was very personable and professional in her approach and the revisions were made and the process completed in a most efficient manner.

Lea Maynard

Tagged solicitor Lea Maynard

Following the death of my husband, I was faced with the issues of dealing with transferring title of our jointly held French property (a very small house) into my name only and subsequently the sale of the house. I had no knowledge of the stages involved or how to approach them. These difficulties were compounded by a very unresponsive Notaire in France. Lea came to my rescue, explained the process and various stages involved and undertook the negotiations with the Notaire. It transpired to be a long process (although I now understand that it is inevitably much longer than in the UK) but Lea chased and followed up with the Notaire, resulting in a successful transfer of title and sale. This help and advice was invaluable. Always professional but kind, understanding and empathetic. Someone on whom I could rely. With my sincere thanks to Lea and to Buckles.

I found Rebecca Minns to be very helpful and professional. She clearly explained various aspects of updating my will. Changes were made and a few weeks later I was able to go into the office to have the will signed and witnessed. I was very happy with the service I received.
