Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a will and a trust?

A will goes into effect after your passing and outlines how your assets should be distributed, while a trust can be active during your lifetime and continue after your death, allowing for more control and flexibility in asset transfer.

How can I minimise estate taxes?

Strategies such as gifting, establishing trusts, and utilising tax-exempt assets can help minimise estate taxes and maximise the amount of wealth transferred to your beneficiaries.

Do I need a lawyer for wealth transfer planning?

While it is possible to create a basic plan on your own, consulting with a lawyer specialised in wealth transfer planning can help ensure that your plan is legally sound and tailored to your specific circumstances.
