Critical issues when using trusts for asset protection purposes

This article looks at Critical issues when using trusts for asset protection purposes more broadly:

  • When are assets held by the trustee (and other related entities) at risk due to the trust’s activities?

  • When can the court ‘look through’ a trust to gain access to assets to pay creditors?

  • Does a trust provide asset protection in the event of a relationship breakdown?

  • Risks from beneficiaries
