    Trust matters cover the creation, management and distribution of assets held on trust, including advice on settlements, trustees, beneficiaries and the tax implications of trusts. A solicitor practicing in this area drafts and revises settlements, identifies and appoints trustees, and helps clients gather and transfer assets into the trust, as well as administering or winding up trusts and communicating with beneficiaries. They may also assist with variations, breaches of trust, and claims against trustees, including applications to the courts for directions or relief. The work is shaped by the terms of the trust deed, statute, and regulatory duties governing trusteeship.

    “Really appreciated the support and guidance from Rachel, not just able to provide honest and clear guidance but was really just able to listen when I think that was what I needed the most. My concerns were treated compassionately and with empathy whilst giving me the direction I needed to move forward and I feel that I am back in control now. Thank you, cannot recommend highly enough!”
