Trusts
Trusts are a highly effective way to manage and protect assets, whether during your lifetime or after your death.


At [Your Law Firm Name], our expert trust solicitors will guide you through the complex area of trust law, providing clear, practical advice tailored to your situation.
Trusts can be used for many purposes, including:

Choosing the right type of trust is crucial to meeting your objectives. We will carefully assess your personal and financial situation to recommend the most suitable structure, whether that is a discretionary trust, life interest trust, bare trust or another option.
The creation of a trust must be carefully documented to ensure its legal validity and tax efficiency. Our team provides full drafting services, assistance with appointing trustees, and registration of trusts where necessary under the Trust Registration Service (TRS).
In addition, we provide ongoing advice and support to trustees, helping them understand and comply with their fiduciary duties. Managing a trust can be complex, especially where multiple beneficiaries are involved, so having access to professional guidance can prevent disputes and ensure the smooth operation of the trust.
Whether you are setting up a trust as part of your Will, protecting assets during your lifetime, or managing an existing trust, we are here to ensure that your wishes are clearly documented and carried out.

Testimonials and Reviews
Thank you for your exceptional conveyancing service. Your professionalism, clear communication, and attention to detail make the process seamless. I truly appreciate your support and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you.
The exceptional Chris Beames has huge experience, is empathetic and able to explain things in a way that is clear and intelligible.
Georgia is extremely good at keeping me informed and her explanations are thoughtful balanced and clear.
Always use Berry Smith for all Legal work, have done for over 15 years & will continue to do so. Never had a bad experience with them.
Whilst the contact was totally professional, I enjoyed the friendly, “down-to-earth” approach, we could talk on a human-to-human level without the technical speak that you sometimes meet with legal representatives. I also considered that there was a business like, practical attitude

Outstanding from start to finish
Gemma was outstanding from start to finish. No question was too silly and every response was prompt. The estate agent we used even commented to us their happiness with how quickly they got responses from Gemma during this process. She did an excellent job of making it as painless as possible
