How Can I Protect My Children’s Inheritance?
Or more commonly known as “Bloodline Planning”. Custodis ensures that Bloodline Planning is carefully and effectively carried out - ensuring that your assets reach your children, grandchildren and other relatives, rather than ending up in the wrong hands!
When assets are distributed to beneficiaries "absolutely", (ie. they receive cash, property or other assets as a direct lump sum payment) so much is at risk of being lost. These assets are then considered to be part of the beneficiary's estate and would be at risk of attack from any future divorce settlements, creditors and taxation.
With the strategic use of Trusts, our team at Custodis Limited can ensure that your children and grandchildren are able to benefit completely from the inheritance you want them to receive and at the same time, protect the family home and other assets from being lost to the costs of Long Term Care.
Preventing Risks
- Have you considered what might happen if your surviving spouse were to remarry? How would this affect your own children if they later changed their Will in favour of a new spouse and any subsequent children?
- Or for those of you who already have children from a previous marriage how do you ensure that they would get their fair share?
- What if your children are very young or have special needs? How can you ensure that they are fully provided for?
- There may also be a business you have worked hard to build up. Surely you would want to protect this for your family too?
Our team understands that you don't really want to leave it all to chance, when with our professional help in setting up the correct type of planning all these problems can be solved and avoided.
Our team's expertise will ensure that your assets are both fully protected from attack and immediately available to your loved ones after you are gone.
