Trusts & Trustees

Trusts demand not only foresight at their creation but precision and discretion in their long-term administration – particularly in a world of shifting tax regimes, regulatory tightening, and complex global asset profiles.

At Linkilaw Solicitors, we act for trustees, settlors, and beneficiaries alike, providing legal support that aligns with the trust’s intended purpose and protects the assets it holds. Whether the trust spans families, continents, or corporate vehicles, we ensure its aims are respected – and its integrity safeguarded.

We advise trustees, settlors, and beneficiaries, ensuring the trust’s integrity and purpose are safeguarded. Our expertise includes:

• Formation and governance of domestic and offshore trusts
• Private trust companies and complex trust structures
• Cross-border administration and restructuring
• Compliance with CRS, FATCA, and economic substance rules
• Jurisdictional considerations (Cayman, BVI, Guernsey, Jersey, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Cyprus, UAE, Switzerland, and more)
• Beneficiary rights, distributions, and dispute resolution
• Tax implications and reporting obligations

Our clients value our discretion and understanding of both fiduciary law and family dynamics. We operate quietly and effectively behind the scenes, ensuring every step supports long-term stewardship.
