Child Support
Ensuring you have a valid will can make all the difference to your family when you pass away. Because a will is such an important part of estate and financial planning, it is worthwhile to get professional advice when drawing up one. Incorporating a discretionary testamentary trust in your Will can greatly enhance the value of the inheritances you leave by providing your beneficiaries with the ability to eliminate or reduce the array of taxes they may have to deal with, and at the same time simply and cost-effectively wrap up their inheritances with secure protection from the claims of creditors, spouses, etc, so their inheritances can be easily kept and passed down within the family.
Family and Business Trust
While the tax benefits of trusts have been eroded away by the new tax regulations, trusts still remain an important tool to protect your assets from events such as divorce, sequestration or insolvency. We assist with efficient structuring your assets into the trusts to ensure your intentions are achieved. We will register the family or business trust for you with the Master of High Court. We also help with all the compliance issues surrounding trusts such as administration, tax and record keeping

Sometimes disagreements are inevitable in families after the loss of key family member like a parent. What is important is for all disputing parties to find common ground and move on with life.
