Trusts & Asset Planning

Protect your wealth. Protect your family 

You’ve worked hard to get where you are, so let’s make a plan to protect your assets and your family’s future. 

At Insight Legal, we get to know you and your family’s needs first, so that we can make the right asset planning recommendations for you. Not all situations require a family trust, so we’ll explain your options in clear and simple terms and then take care of all the paperwork.  

Recent changes in trust law mean that it’s a good idea to have existing trusts (pre-2019) reviewed to ensure they continue to protect your assets. You should also have your trusts and asset structures reviewed if you become vulnerable due to age, illness or disability; embark on a new relationship; take on a directorship, launch a new business or make significant changes to the ownership structure of your business. 

We can help you with:

Strategic advice regarding asset protection and family trusts

Establishing trusts

Reviewing an existing trust to ensure that it continues to meet your needs

Reviewing an existing trust to ensure compliance with current legislation

Trust administration

Winding up of trusts

Don’t leave your future to chance. 

With Insight Legal, you’ll have peace of mind that your assets and your loved ones are protected. Call our trust and asset planning experts now and let’s get your affairs in order.
