Using trust funds to protect your loved ones | Flint Bishop

Trusts

Approach

There are many different types of trusts available, such as property trust wills, discretionary trusts and personal injury trusts.

There are administration and taxation issues to consider when creating a trust, so before you decide on which route to take, we ensure that you fully understand the benefits and consequences of all of your options.

Our friendly and approachable team will then help you to set up and maintain your chosen trust, ensuring that it accurately reflects your wishes.
